And Trevor Burrus, Research Fellow at Cato, warned, “If proponents want to bring a case on concealed carry and cite the Obergefell opinion, they are free to… [But] gay marriage [doesn’t] automatically convey a right to concealed carry in 50 states. Moreover, by using these spurious arguments, advocates … harm the overall movement for gun rights. Bad arguments can create bad precedents that could impair the expansion of the right to self defense.”

The proper way to enforce permit recognition is by Congress's Full Faith and Credit powers. In fact, it is exactly this kind of circumstance for which the clause was created.
Under Full Faith and Credit, Congress could also have mandated recognition of marriage licenses issued to gays.
That last may not be popular (I know it isn't with ME), but that is our Constitution, and that is a delegated power of the Congress pursuant to the 10th Amendment. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Gentlemen may cry, 'peace, peace'—but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! Is life so precious, or peace so dear, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death! — Patrick Henry to the Virginia Convention on March 23, 1775. |
