![Quote from Camilla Taylor that reads, "We knew our opponents would not simply give up and disappear after our [Obergefell] victory before the U.S. Supreme Court. Securing the freedom to marry and all it should guarantee would require more than a court decision, no matter how significant. It would require a community determined to live with pride and joy, and to defend what we have gained from the inevitable attacks. So, let’s take a day to celebrate Kim Davis’s long overdue descent into irrelevance. And then let’s brace ourselves for the tough fight ahead."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:6yedvymehprtsaiuinqclvvu/bafkreiapcsja5so4ts3gjplbhejm6xozhfybusaumyapvpt6ish5u2bmsu@jpeg)
