They're going to be more free and progressive than the US. Scotus has that in their sights.

It's our own fault. It's like the internet fosters Puritan values.

Mexico has gay marriage written into law by its 32 state legislatures. USA has gay marriage because of a Supreme Court decision that could be over turned any session. So in a way Mexico gay marriage is like a constitutional amendment so it's way more robust than what the US has

Any of the 32 Mexican state legislatures can choose to overturn gay marriage at any time, and US state legislatures can only choose to do so if the SCOTUS overturns the Supreme Court case.

I don't see how the protections are different, neither Mexico nor the US has a federal constitutional amendment guaranteeing gay marriage.
