“While Massachusetts has so far refused to marry any out-of-state homosexual couples,”
Rhode Island gay couples are getting married here because their attorney general gave the okay. Rhode Island has no marriage protection law so that state will be the next to fall, no doubt.
That’s an individual state making a decision to accept another state’s procedure. That can always be reversed by a different leadership in that particular state. A Supreme Court decision striking down a state Constitutional ban on same-sex marriage would strike down all such state bans.
