wolven7"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."
'. . .the full faith and credit clause does not require one state to substitute for its own statute, applicable to persons and events within it, the conflicting statute of another state, even though that statute is of controlling force in the courts of the state of its enactment with respect to the same persons and events.
'This Court must determine for itself how far the full faith and credit clause compels the qualification or denial of rights asserted under the laws of one state, that of the forum, by the statute of another state.'
See here.
Exceptions for conflicts? What about where there is no specific law that sits in conflict? Is it observed until such time as a law is passed?
I want one day, ONE DAY where everyone in the House, the Senate, The Supreme Court, and the White House sits down and reads the entire Constitution, front to back. Really reads it.
I think this should happen once a year. At least.
