Gay couples in CA may be able to marry as early as June 14

SJ Mercury News:

Same-sex couples in some counties will be able to marry as soon as Saturday, June 14, the president of the California's county clerks association said Monday....

The court's decisions typically take effect after 30 days, barring further legal action....

An effort, however, is under way to stay the Supreme Court's decision until voters can decide the issue with an initiative planned for the November ballot. The measure would overrule the justices' decision and amend the state constitution to ban gay marriage.

Justices have until the ruling's effective date to weigh the request, but could give themselves longer to consider it, attorneys have said.
Meanwhile, in Gambia, President Yahya Jammeh is talking about beheading every gay person in the country. Sounds to me like the lady Jammeh doth protest too much.
