They'll all say, yes, gays should have the same rights in housing, jobs, public accomodations, and should have equal access to government benefits, equal protection of the law, etcetera, etcetera.

In response to this decision the state constitution was amended to allow the legislature to preserve that restriction. A similar court decision in Alaska in 1998 led

The debate surrounding same-sex marriage breaks down into several different categories: constitutionality, the religious aspect, familial impact, and the further nuanced idea of civil unions.
