Note: There has never been a "federal ban on same-sex marriages." There was a ban on recognizing such marriages, in DOMA.
@CHobbes1985 Not at all. The Federal Marriage Amendment would have banned such marriages. Totally different.

@chrisgeidner if you ban Monopoly money at McDonalds vs not recognizing it, either way, you are not eating. -
@CHobbes1985 If you don't understand the distinction between DOMA and the FMA, you should read up. You're far afield. -
@chrisgeidner please give just one example of a practical difference. DOMA restricted many of our federal entitlements. -
@CHobbes1985 Federal. Yes. That's the difference. DOMA did nothing to marriage law itself, which is created at the state level.
