Wedding Bell Blues
Well, you win some, you lose some... or a lot, in this case.
Still. I believe that one day, we will look back on people like Gavin Newsom and respect them. So he broke the law. It's not like he murdered anyone or sold drugs! Many famous civil rights leaders have broken the law. Rosa Parks broke it when she refused to get up. MLK Jr. broke it when he sat at the lunch counter. And Mahatma Gandhi broke it when he refused to submit to the will of the British.
We will win one day. Just not today.
