Not surprisingly, this Fourth Circuit is being appealed directly to the Supreme Court.
In other news, the Sixth Circuit (covering MI, OH, KY, and TN) will be hearing cases on Wednesday. It's very possible that this could be the first post-Windsor court to uphold a ban on gay marriage, which are to be heard by two GWB appointees (including staunch conservative Judge Jeffrey Sutton, though he did vote to uphold the ACA) and one Clinton appointee. Obviously, it's too early to know how they'll rule, but it's a much more conservative panel compared with the other two circuit courts that have ruled.
As for the procreation argument, I think it's one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard. Anyone that makes that kind of argument should instantly lose all credibility.
