Massachusetts Residents Only Allowed Gay Marriage - Tourism Industry Immediately Plummets

@ 08:33 PM (29 months, 13 days ago)

Wait a minute....is this a case of discrimination-discrimination?  Am I getting this right?  Massachusetts gays want to reserve the gay marriage right for themselves to the exclusion of legal and illegal aliens?

BOSTON (Reuters) - Gay couples from American states that ban same-sex marriages cannot legally be wed in Massachusetts, where such unions are legal, the state's highest court ruled on Thursday.

The ruling was made in response to a lawsuit filed by gay couples from Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont, which prohibit same-sex marriage. It appeared to end the prospect that the liberal New England state could become a U.S. destination for gay couples to marry.

  1. Don't you think this case was just used to highlight the 93 year old law. Now activists will be descending en masse in Mass. to demand new legislation.
