When the other states concede or when the US Supreme Court smacks down some attempt to win an exception, then it really is over. The Supreme Court knocked down, so far as I can tell, every argument against the legalization of SSM. Some backward official in some backwoods court (Roy Moore is possible) is likely to argue that Obergfell vs. Hodges does not apply to 'his' state.
That will not take long to clear.
District court judges will have to step in in some states, but there is sadly no path for SCOTUS to ever reverse itself on this issue.
Yeah, isn't it sad? People who have been persecuted, shamed, even murdered for most of human history finally getting legal recognition of a human right?
While it's just a damn shame we can't reverse it, but thankfully there's a way for you to reverse your stupid bigoted position and learn to accept the fact that some interpretations of a worthless book written centuries ago is just plain wrong.
I couldn't say it any better myself. I'm glad the forces of good have overtaken the opponents of freedom. But we must remember that this victory is only the start of our path. We still have a long road ahead of us. Adoption rights, anti discrimination laws, hate crimes laws, the ban on blood donation. We can celebrate, but we must remember that a fight still must occur.
