The US is a nation of laws. It is not a nation of people. To suggest that the majority should be able to vote to do what they want is to completely misunderstand what is great about the US.
No individual, no majority should trump the law.
This challenge of prop 8 is exactly how it should happen. A challenge has been made to see if this prop is constitutionally sound. If it isn't, like any law that is enacted and found wanting the eyes of the constitution (Federal or State), the law is struck down. This is how it's supposed to work.
