I guess I’ll have to reconsider Wyoming though I’m not really sure what I’d be reconsidering it for…

I’m not sure if I’m shocked or not. What does that mean…are out of state gay marriages currently valid there, or does it have to hit the courts?

Yes,out of state gay marriages are currently valid in Wyoming.Thats why these asshats were trying to pass this stupid bill. It’s pretty cool that they can’t get a bill like this passed in Wyoming of all places, almost gives me hope for this state.
