Unintended consequences of the Gay Marriage decision

[Rex B]

According to Allen West, the SCOTUS decision on gay marriage also makes reciprocity the law across 50 states.

The article cites West referencing http://bearingarms.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; but I could not find the article on their site.
here is the text that matters:

BearingArms.com writes: “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.”

The Court used Section 1 of the Fourteen Amendment to justify its
argument, which reads: …No state shall make or enforce any law, which
shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United
States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or
property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within
its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

Here’s the kicker — as the writer at BearingArms.com notes: “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.“

Thoughts?
