“Saturday Night Live’s” “Weekend Update” co-host Colin Jost instructed Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito “look around you, everyone’s already on board the gay train.”
Jost said, “During the Supreme Court hearing on the constitutionality of gay marriage, Justice Samuel Alito asked if homosexuals are allowed to marry, what would happen if a group of two men and two women tried to apply for a marriage license. Well, Sam, I’m no legal expert, but they’d probably tell them ‘no.’ Because that’s polygamy, and it’s illegal, and also, not at all the same thing. So, let’s stick to the case at hand, and not try to turn this whole thing into some kind of gay word problem. Cause if the gay marriage train leaves Massachusetts at 3 pm, and the traditional marriage train leaves Tennessee at 6 pm, it doesn’t matter, because look around you, everyone’s already on board the gay train.”
