[QUOTE="Gideon, post: 2792823, member: 7898"] I don't agree with Huckster or any like him, but what he's saying is correct. The SCOTUS doesn't get to alter the law, it can only strike them down or let them continue. If they find that the current laws regarding the issuance of marriage licenses is unconstitutional (which I certainly think they are) then they strike down ALL marriage license laws, and give the states time to amend their laws accordingly. If state marriage laws have been struck down, then the law has to be altered to comply with the Constitution and THEN they can begin issuing them. Remember when Illinois had to begrudgingly pass concealed carry legislation, and they debated to the last minute trying to keep as much Chicago gun-control as possible? That was months after the related SCOTUS ruling forced them to do so. We're basically in the same situation here. [/QUOTE]
