I'm not going to judge it until I read the actual opinion, but I'm going to be very disappointed if they chose to create a new protected class while also refusing to hear several extremely important 2nd amendment cases.


That appears to be exactly what happened today. All the pending 2nd Amendment cases were rejected this morning, and Title VII was read to include terms the text does not cover.

This is when I miss Scalia. His dissent would have been epic.

Scalia was one of the worst dissent writers of all time, dude never actually put the law into his dissents, he just called the other justices stupid. Justice Brennan was the same way.

Also, what’s the big deal about Gays and Transgenders not being discriminated against? They shouldn’t be.

The USA is now both godless and lawless.

I thought all this gay and transgender crapola was over with. The LGBTQ community won the war its over. Why is this still an issue?

There’s actually a valid option to this on the table but we don’t have the gumption.

To start with, it is a self selecting group.

If you have a problem employee who is about to get fired, they can suddenly decide they are gay and claim gay discrimination is why they got fired.

First gay =/= transgender

Second, IT'S NOT THE frickING LAW.

The Court has IGNORED the Congress and has taken on the role of the legislature by including persons/classes into a law that are not there, and have not been added despite efforts to do so.

We'll know soon enough. I've seen too many knee-jerk poli board posts about scotus opinions in the past that ultimately end up being rulings that are very limited in scope. Going to read it before getting pissed.

We not only need the justice knocking on death’s door to expire, we need a couple of others to unexpectedly do the same.

I didn't even realize this was an issue. Before today I've always thought you couldn't fire anyone based on sexuality or gender.

I really don't believe this changes much. What am I missing?

NO ONE should ever have to pretend that a dude who wears make-up and a dress is a chick.

It really is THAT F*CKING SIMPLE.

The United States experiment is over. It failed. Somewhere along the way we failed to correct course.
