All Mexican States Must Recognize Gay Marriages

Mexico just rocketed ahead of the USA. Its Supreme Court ruled today that ALL states in Mexico must recognized same sex marriage that are performed in Mexico City (the Court upheld that law last week) even if those other states do not authorize gay marriages themselves. This is obviously what should be the case in the USA and what would be the case but for the federal DOMA and - in my view - unconstitutional state DOMA laws and anti-gay state constitutional amendments like Virginia's. Many in the USA like to look down on Mexico, but as of today, Mexico makes a mockery of the false freedom of religion that this country claims to have for all. Unless, of course you are gay and don't live your life in accordance with the religious views of Christo-fascists. It is but one more example why I keep asking this question of Barack Obama: WTF is wrong with you? Here are highlights from the Washington Post on today's ruling in Mexico:
*
MEXICO CITY -- Mexico's Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that all 31 states must recognize same-sex marriages performed in the capital, though its decision does not force those states to begin marrying gay couples in their territory. In a 9-2 decision, the tribunal cited an article of the constitution requiring states to recognize legal contracts drawn up elsewhere.
*
Mexico City's same-sex marriage law, enacted in March, extends to wedded gay couples the right to adopt children, to jointly apply for bank loans, to inherit wealth and to be covered by their spouses' insurance policies. Some of those [e.g., adoption] may end up applying only in the capital.

One more country moves ahead of the USA. One can only wonder how many more will make the USA look backward and homophobic before full legal equality under the civil laws is available to all Americans.
