One of the reasons this case was filed in Iowa [was that the state has a] history of being, progressive, of protecting individual liberties. If you read the opinion, they make references to decisions as early as 1839 [like the one] prohibiting slavery in Iowa. They were pretty mindful of that. The fact that they were unanimous - I wasn't completely surprised by that. I've been before these justices. They're a pretty intelligent group, and they've demonstrated in the past that they were not afraid to rule on the law the way they see it.
