Now here is the kicker, as the writer articulately brings to light: “By using the Constitution in such a manner, the Court argues that the Due Process Clause extends “certain personal choices central to individual dignity and autonomy” accepted in a majority of states across the state lines of a handful of states that still banned the practice. The vast majority of states are “shall issue” on the matter of issuing concealed carry permits, and enjoy reciprocity with a large number of other states. My North Carolina concealed carry permit, for example, was recognized yesterday as being valid in 36 states, which just so happened to be the number of states in which gay marriage was legal yesterday. But 14 states did not recognize my concealed carry permit yesterday. Today they must.
Using the same “due process clause” argument as the Supreme Court just applied to gay marriage, my concealed carry permit must now be recognized as valid in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.“

Good luck getting the tyrants in black to go along with that.
The SCOTUS will never go for that and we all know it
Yeah, well I’d wait until there was some direct legal authority on this before trying it out. Unless YOU want to be the test case.
Funny, I was just thinking this exact thought regarding Guns and Sodomites getting married. In Arizona I need NO PERMIT, as a Resident of Arizona shouldn’t EVERY State HONOR MY RIGHT as an Arizona Resident??
It ought to be tried, at least.
Ha, Ha, Judge Andrew Napolitano also saw this inconsistency and made the same comment.
Oh, but you weren’t BOOO-ORRN packing /lefty
The erroneous assumption here is that the Supreme Court and the legal system will apply this ruling in a consistent and just manner. Unfortunately, that’s not going to happen anytime soon.
You are absolutely right, if there was any possibility of this supreme court doing anything in a consistent and just manner they would not be busily issuing decisions which are plainly in violation of the spirit and the letter of the constitution as any bright ten year old who has read the document can plainly see.
OK so take your concealed weapon to one of those 14 states, get arrested, and when you go to trial tell the jury that you are allowed to carry because the Supreme Court ruled in favor of same-sex marriage. Let us know how it turns out.
YEAH RIGHT!!! I’ve read this 100 times in the past couple days. There is NO FRICKIN’ WAY Obama or the lib states are going to allow concealed carry from other states. After all...That’s a state decision....Right???
You make the mistake of assuming that objective logic is in play here, when in reality all that is happening is one side using any tool at its disposal to push its agenda, while our side meekly takes it.
Until we come to the realization that we’re facing a tyrant (the left) who’s not afraid to use brute force against us, we’ll continue losing battle after battle.
The conservative position vis-a-vis the left is the same as the West’s position vis-a-vis islamists. One side has declared war against the other, and the other still delusionally insists that there is no war.
No doubt. After all, it’s just one of those constitution thingys. Where as marriage license and drivers licenses, now that’s something to protect against inequality. Uh, what?
This Supreme Court will never be consistent
They’ll just say that it is different, since guns are a public safety issue. But it is nice to think that they might allow the same rules to apply to our issues as much as theirs.
Obamanism requires that the state with the most restrictive gun laws be enforced on all the other states. That fits with the laws of the gayest states being enforced nationally.
It’s only “fair” to do it that way!
Hey, if I have the right to refuse poisonous vaccines in Idaho, how can California take away that right?????
One can never expect Liberals to be consistent that is the one thing they are not, nor will ever be....
I agree with this, and in a logical world, honorable judges would apply this to the 2nd Amendment. However, we have dishonorable, deceitful judges who tell us that the Constitution means what THEY say it means, and laws only mean what THEY say the laws mean. The USSC, the White House, and both houses of Congress are led by dishonest, dishonorable, and treacherous men. We have in effect, law by whim and decree.
