That's an interesting angle. Is is a states' rights question or a civil rights question? And if both, which trumps? If it is ruled a civil rights issue, I don't think that states can pass laws that violate civil rights. But if it is a states' rights issue, doesn't that mean that other states to have the right to allow gay marriage if they choose?
