That's about what I was expecting to hear, sadly. But isn't there a Federal Law that requires the states to honor licenses (such as for driving, or marriage) issued by other states? After all, we aren't required to file for a driver's license in every state we might pass through in our lives. We don't have to get married in every state we move to, either. How can this kind of discrimination, then, be justified? It could then be permissible to require every person from North Carolina to apply for a new driver's license, or marriage license, every time they cross the border into neighboring states. The result would be chaos!
the full faith and credit clause only applies when there is an equivalent within the other states. hypothetically, if im from texas, and i get a permit for concealed carry, then i can do it in other states that have concealed carry regulations. i can't go to massachusetts, where concealed carry is illegal no matter what and get away with it.
no state bars heterosexuals from getting marriage licenses, so its okay to get it in any state, but if the other states have no such equivalent fro homosexuals, then they are free to ignore them
