"The question is not asked of them at the time of licensing" is totally irrelevant to what the Constitution allows or doesn't allow."Rookie mistake there, the Constitution must ENPOWER the government to do specific things. In other words, the Federal government cannot do anything that the Constitution does not specifically grants it authority to do.
In turn, State governments can only do those things specifically authorized by a State's Constitution, any powers not specifically granted to the Feds or the State, falls back on the citizens.
A State may not violate civil rights by passing a law.

How would it be violating civil rights?
To: Luis Gonzalez
Let's say there is a law passed that says only folks who can use their mouths to twist a cherry stem into a knot may be officially licensed as Stem-Twisters.
It seems you will throw out the law as unconstitutional because the constitution did not specifically empower government to ask that question. Your position is absurd.

State laws define civilian rights ... look at your driver's license, Luis. Homosexual degeneracy is not civil life, Luis, so how is it that folks want to give the practitioners of this degeneracy special definition and special civil standings contrary to historical society, historical civil order?
