An Unintended
Side-effect of the SCOTUS Ruling on Same-Sex Marriage
by Allen West on June

Yep, since now
the SCOTUS has determined it can bequeath a right to marriage across all 50
states, there is an interesting point to be made.
As reported
by BearingArms.com, “If you’re following any of the
various media outlets this morning, you’re probably aware that the U.S. Supreme
Court has just extended gay marriage to all 50 states. The Supreme Court ruled
Friday that same-sex couples have a right to marry nationwide, in a historic
decision that invalidates gay marriage bans in more than a dozen states. Gay
and lesbian couples already can marry in 36 states and the District of
Columbia. The court’s ruling on Friday means the remaining 14 states, in the
South and Midwest, will have to stop enforcing their bans on same-sex marriage.
The outcome is the culmination of two decades of Supreme Court litigation over
marriage, and gay rights generally.”
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.“
Yes folks, there is a standing right called the Second Amendment,
which grants the right to keep and bear arms, and that specifically granted
right shall not be infringed. So, the SCOTUS does not need to have a court case
and prolonged legal, judicial activism — that right exists.
So, since I have moved from Florida to Texas, my concealed weapons
permit is not only transferrable here, but all across the country, in all fifty
states — or fifty-seven if you are President Obama.
Yeehaw!
Thanks to the
LGBT community for making it very clear, my constitutionally declared right
MUST be recognized in every state. Not only is it my right to keep and bear my
arms (weapons) but that personal choice is central to my individual dignity and
autonomy — the protection of the unalienable rights granted to me by the
Creator, the first of which is life.
Hot doggone, I
just cannot wait to hear the liberal progressive socialist anti-gun argument
against this premise — which is now established!
