What is unintended consequences? The state not recognizing religious issued marriage certificates? If they stop recognizing them as legal documents, then marriages are nullified in the eyes of the state.
Or passing "Hate Crimes" bills that would criminalize groups like the Knights of Columbus for sponsoring the Marriage Amendment Initiative Petition in MA. My Rep. thinks that if Gay Marriage stays as is then that will be the end of it. Oh no. The retribution against the foes of Gay Marriage will need to be ruthless.
