3. Good, it's only a matter of time before they all go

Although the former slave states will fight it tooth and nail, even enshrining unequal treatment under the law to any group the ruling class doesn't like that week into law won't work since the US constitution negates any popular ruling against civil rights enjoyed by all citizens.

It seems to be happening quickly now. All it took were a couple of brave states taking the plunge followed by the stubborn refusal of the sky to fall in those states.
