"A coalition of religious and social conservative groups is attempting to put a measure on the November ballot that would enshrine laws banning gay marriage in the state constitution."

this is scary though

yes but...

Even if they try, and if it passes, that's grounds for challenging it as unconstitutional.

It's coming. It might take another 10 years, but it's coming.

agreed, it is grounds b/c it is unconstitutional
but i don't trust people (including judges) to think the way i do .. fear makes people do incomprehensible things

from the San Jose Mercury News (http://www.mercurynews.com/ci_9269719)

"I respect the court's decision and as governor, I will uphold its ruling," Schwarzenegger said within minutes of the ruling. "Also, as I have said in the past, I will not support an amendment to the constitution that would overturn this state Supreme Court ruling."

This is promising...
