Bono: Ireland Now Has ‘True Equality’

While performing in Phoenix on Saturday night, U2 frontman Bono declared that his homeland of Ireland was now at peace. "It's a moment for us to thank the people who bring us peace to our country. We have peace in Ireland today ... and in fact on this very day we have true equality in Ireland," he said. "Millions turned up to vote yesterday to say love is the highest law in the land—love.” Voters turned out in droves in Ireland on Saturday to make it the first country in the world to pass nationwide gay marriage by popular vote.
