Equal rights in an Un-equal world!

It is now a fairly well known fact that, at long last, the world's most powerful nation - the USA - albeit long after the 28 countries of the European Union (and indeed many other countries, including a number of predominantly Catholic South American nations) - has FINALLY recognised the rights of same-sex couples! The U.S. Department of State, in a message delivered by Secretary of State, John Kerry has explained for example that: "The Supreme Court has found section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) unconstitutional." However - there is still a long way to go as Federal Laws and State Laws need to be brought into some sort of comprehensive equation.....Let us know what you think of this development - and whether you think the walls need to come down in more places globally?:
