Same-sex marriage ban is ruled unconstitutional. What's your reaction?

Reactions are flooding social media as Californians respond to news that the U.S. Supreme Court struck down DOMA, the Defense of Marriage Act, in a 5-4 vote in a decision Wednesday morning. 

The act had prohibited the U.S. government from recognizing same-sex marriage. 

When we asked Rosemont Patch Facebook followers if the court got it right, one person responded with "Hell yes!!"

See how Rosemont-area residents reacted on Twitter above.
