So, what I wondering, is if they moved to the United States, would this be a legal union in the USA? Can American homosexuals go up there to get married and then force our government to recongnise this union? Is that the new scheme?

I don't know anything about the law, but everything I have read before would indicate that it would not be recognized here unless a state had some sort of reciprocity law in place. (I was hoping a bunch of them would move to Canada because of this.)

Texas doesn't recognize same sex marriages period. In fact, our Governor Rick Perry just signed a new law a couple of weeks ago specifically spelling it out. We didn't NEED that law because it was already covered in the statutes. Some of the LIBS hated that too. I felt their pain - NOT !!!!

Not in Nebraska. We have an amendment in our state constitution that recognizes marraige only as a union between a man and a woman. This was a petition initiative that ended up on the ballot and passed at general election with over 70% of the vote. The usual cast of sodomites have been screaming about it ever since. It'll end up before the Nebraska Supreme Court (God, please help us) sometime within the next 2 years, I'm guessing.
