California Same Sex Marriages Will Happen June 17th!

So says the California Supreme Court, in denying the request for a stay of their earlier ruling made by right wing groups and religious bigots. This is a wonderful development and will strengthen the fight against the anti-gay-marriage constitutional initiative. Since out-of-state gay male and lesbian couples will be able to marry in California on or after June 17th, I wonder what our national gay rights organizations will recommend to couples who would like to take advantage of the opportunity to legally marry within the boundries of the United States? It seems to me that a landslide of gay couples pouring into California to marry could be a powerful tool and make a powerful statement on the nationwide battle for marriage equality and gay rights.
