U.S. moves one step closer to Civil War ? SCOTUS strikes
down DOMA
Freedom Outpost ^ | June 26, 2013 | Shea Bernard

The DOMA decision is not the one that will start the civil
war. SCOTUS
punting on Perry threw the question of state marriage laws
back to the
states.
You can still have a couple married in California,
considered
unmarried across the line in Arizona, Nevada and Oregon.

Yes, but their rights follow them.

Well, the jury is out on that one, but it appears that if a gay
couple
from California moves to Backwardsville, Texas (that would be
the entire
state), the state of Texas does not have to recognize that
marriage.
What is going to happen is that there will be many lawsuits
filed in the
states that don't recognize gay marriage, and eventually those
barriers
will come down.

That may be true in the 9th circuit but it may not go the same
way in
the 11th and the court did not give them any specific guidance.

Why wouldn't my Texas issued CCW permit be honored in California?

I dunno. The same reason it is not honored in:

Connecticut, District of Columbia, Guam, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland,
Massachusetts, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, New
York
City, Ohio, Oregon, Puerto Rico, Rhode Island, Virgin Islands,
Washington, American Samoa, Illinois, N. Mariana Islands?

If a marriage "can" be force to be recognized by other states then
surely a CCW permit is
just the same.

I agree.

There is no federal law that requires one state to recognize marriages
performed in another state. What the Supremes did was rule DOMA was
unConstitutional. DOMA stipulated that certain federal financial perks
and other similar benefits accrued to only male-female married
couples.

-------------------------------------

Unless the states eventually stop worrying about where you were
married (like they do for heterosexual couples) the gay rights groups
will soon be pressing for a federal law that forces recognition of gay
marriages uniformly throughout the country.

If that happens, then I want to be able to travel anywhere in the
country carrying a firearm. Fair is fair. :-)
