[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Must states with bans on same-sex marriage now issue marriage licenses to gay couples? Yes.[/b]

If a gay couple was married in a state that has same-sex marriage is their marriage automatically now accepted as legal (with the same rights and benefits) in states without same sex marriage? Yes.

SCOTUS got this wrong. What they did was not Constitutional. Consider this - SCOTUS struck down DoMA because it defined marriage, which his not a Constitutional authority. But they now re-defined marriage which is now a Constitutional authority? [/quote]

No one redefined marriage.  Marriage, to our government, has always been nothing but a legal contract that bestows the rights of kin/family to two unrelated adults.  Nothing has changed.  [/quote]

The Supreme Court said that corporations are people, and that joe-bob plinking cans from his porch is a well-regulated militia.  In that context, this would be one of the least tortured opinions of the current court.[/quote]
