Gay Marriage Halted In Baja California As Participants Deemed ‘Insane’
Mexican authorities stopped what would have been their first gay marriage, claiming both parties were
“suffering from madness.”

[su_csky_ad]…two men, Víctor Manuel Aguirre and Víctor Fernando Urias, were about to become the first homosexual couple to tie the knot.
The pair originally planned their wedding to take place in November 2014, but were forced to cancel following a bomb scare at the city hall, Pink News reported.
The two men tried again to get married with the backing of the Mexican Supreme Court.
This time, however, the ceremony was stopped after a counsellor claimed that the pair “suffer from madness” and therefore could not get married.
The comment was made by the president of the Coalition of Baja California Families, Angelica Guadalupe Gonzalez Sanchez, who provides compulsory pre-marital talks to couples having civil wedding ceremonies. She refused to certify the pair, according to reports.
The men’s attorney accused also the Mayor Jaime Díaz Ochoa of deliberately holding up the process with red tape.
Mexico City became the first jurisdiction in Latin America to legalise same-sex marriage in 2009. The Mexican states of Quintana Roo and Baja California followed, and Coahuila is also in the process of voting in favour of a bill legalising same-sex marriage and gay adoption.

Idiotic homophobes.

that;s just dumb. what on earth could she have deemed “madness?” i know a lot of straight couples that get married who suffer from madness, so that’s not saying much at all.

Maybe they didn’t have enough last names to satisfy her?

On the upside, if they’re insane, they qualify for an open carry permit.
