Convince me that the actions taken pursuant to a subsequently void assault rifle license and those taken pursuant to a subsequently void marriage license are just as readily undone, and you'll win your point. Pragmatism tells me you won't be able to.
At the end of the court battle, a bunch of gays will have a nice, framed marriage license on their walls that has nothing other than symbolic value (well, that, or the claim to be among the first few thousand). At the end of the weapons battle, you'll be left with any number of assault weapons in the hands of the people who most want them. IF you're equally comfortable with those scenarios, more power to your argument.
