Supreme Court gay rights ruling celebrated across US

A crowd gathers to listen to speakers near the Stonewall Inn, as they celebrate the US Supreme Court ruling against the Defense of Marriage Act in New York June 26, 2013. The US Supreme Court delivered a landmark victory for gay rights on Wednesday by forcing the federal government to recognize same-sex marriages in states where it is legal and paving the way for it in California, the most populous state.
