同性婚姻問題,在美國社會一直引起很大的爭議,也是美國總統大選的重要議題。不過14日美國加州舊金山高等法院,做出一項新的決定,那就是不應該禁止同性婚姻,而且認定禁止同性婚姻的法令,違反了憲法。

舊金山高等法院做出裁決,認為不應該把婚姻限定為只有異性的結合,因此認定加州政府禁止同性婚姻,是違反憲法。這項判決立刻引發各界兩極化的激烈反應。一名同性婚姻反對者湯姆森表示:「這是項令人羞恥的判決!保護婚姻的自然本質,應該是一男一女先生和妻子。」而同性婚姻支持者甘多爾表示:「這個判決表示賦予加州的同性戀者完全的自尊,同時給予同性戀關係、以及他們的家人法律的保障。」

去年舊金山市長為了表示對同性戀婚姻的支持,公開頒發結婚證書,給同性戀伴侶,隨後舊金山地方法院也陸續批准4000對同性伴侶的婚姻,在美國社會引起軒然大波,結果美國最高法院宣佈同性婚姻無效。

隨後這場同志婚姻的訴訟,上訴到高等法院,而舊金山高等法院最後裁決,指稱禁止同性結婚,是侵犯加州公民享有的州憲法民事權利,因此裁定違憲,不過反對者可能還會繼續上訴,因此這場有關同志婚姻的合法權的戰爭,恐怕還會繼續下去。
