First Report From Seventh: All Three Judges "Skeptical" Of Marriage Opposition
Each judge - Posner, Williams and Hamilton - skeptical of arguments for marriage bans. My prediction: 3-0 ruling for #MarriageEquality.— Chris Johnson (@chrisjohnson82) August 26, 2014
Reagan-appointed Posner most vocal in skepticism, asking Qs about why states want to children with same-sex parents to be worse off.

Williams expressed confusion over procreation argument for same-sex marriage ban. "Here are people who know they want to have children."

First take: Plaintiff same-sex couples will win marriage case at 7th Circuit. It will almost certainly be 3-0, likely on equal protection.

Also: If you see the lawyer who represented Wisconsin, give him a hug. That was rough.

#7thCircuit, Judge Hamilton said: "You're making the same argument that was made in 'Loving,' and #SCOTUS rejected it."— freedomtomarry (@freedomtomarry) August 26, 2014
