Don't get me wrong. I totally oppose same-sex 'marriage' but the Constitution does give the courts a problem:

Article IV

Section 1

Full Faith and Credit shall be given in each State to the public Acts, Records, and judicial Proceedings of every other State.

This means, I believe that same-sex marriages allowed by one state MUST be recognized by the other states. This gives us a sticky problem. Does Senator Cruz deal with this?

You may have a case once Commifornia and NY start recognizing carry permits from other states.

Marriage involves so much law, custody, pensions, ownership, divorce, parent status, medical stuff and on and on, it just wouldn’t work for a family to be living in one state and transferred to another or moving, or traveling through another and meeting all kinds of randomness and non-existence.

The media and the left was very effective in shutting down the option of creating a legal 2 person union that wasn’t called “marriage”.
