Since Texas does not recognize gay marriage the guy goes the same way as any other illegal alien....

More relevantly, USCIS does not recognize gay marriage...

He was illegal for years before he got married.

I think their case should be handled the same way a heterosexual couples' would be, which is he will likely be deported back to Costa Rica to sit out a ban.

But otherwise, unless interpretation changes for USCIS to recognize gay marriage, he will not be able to come back legally (based on the relationship at least) after a ban. He wouldn't be able to qualify for a visitor's visa (B2), because his marital relationship is viewed as "immigrant intent" (in other words, he would likely "overstay"). The case won't be handled like a heterosexual couple at all.

Can someone point out to me what would have been different if this was a hetrosexual couple?

Sometimes playing the "gay card" is retarded, and this is one of them.......

I did, that's why I'm asking the question......

A gay illegal alien is still an illegal alien invader.....

Bringing up the "gay" side is supposed to do what?

Should a gay illegal alien invader get any different justice than a hetrosexual illegal alien invader or something?
