An anti-gay protester interrupted the start of the U.S. Supreme Court hearings on marriage equality today, the WSJ reports:
Just as the first lawyer finished speaking, an older man with a beard and white hair shouted, “Homosexuality is an abomination!”
He was quickly removed, but his voice could be heard echoing through the courthouse as he was ejected.
HuffPost reporter Ryan J. Reilly reported on the commotion from outside the courtroom.
More details as they come in…

Can still hear the protester screaming downstairs. Can’t quite hear what he was saying. #SCOTUS
