I fixed the article. I think it should be allowed if it all people involved want it. I am against forced marriage as well.

Thanks for fixing the article. I've got multiple friends who are polyamorous so this lawsuit will probably be big news in that community. I'm not sure the case is so cut and dry though, there are a lot of government benefits such as certain tax breaks that come along with marriage and I'm afraid the government might think that allowing multiple spouses to one person is taking advantage of that. Divorce in a larger party like that will be a complicated issue to work out as well, whereas gay marriage doesn't require any major reworking of the legal structure underlying marriage besides possible custody issues from the outside biological parent.
