Article. IV.
Section. 1.
Full Faith and Credit shall be given in each State to the public Acts, Records, and judicial Proceedings of every other State. And the Congress may by general Laws prescribe the Manner in which such Acts, Records and Proceedings shall be proved, and the Effect thereof.
Section. 2.
The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States.
This has been nagging at the back of my brain since the incident in Ohio with Hunter being stopped with those evil weapons that the HP didn't like. This is an ongoing problem for lots of folks all over the place. I'm sure that this has some case law to back up the ability of the state's to ignore licenses issued elsewhere but I don't think I have ever read it.
Also, I would like to know why CCW licenses are treated differently than the soon to be issued licenses to commit sod... er... gay marriage licenses. This question would also apply to all other types of licenses. I know that the states enact law for recpricosity (sp) on many subjects but why is that necessary from a clear reading of the Constitution? Or is expecting the Constitution to be applied as it is written my problem?
I understand the practical reasons why the states want to keep control but would like to learn the legal reasoning behind ignoring what I think is the clear meaning of the Constitution.
My understanding of some terms;
public Acts = laws passed by legislature
Privileges and Immunities = CCW license etal
Confused and ignorant hick in the sticks
