I can imagine what Alito, likely brought up in an old fashioned Italian household like myself, is really thinking in his head.

Why wouldn’t they, they have changed the meaning of almost everything else.

Roberts lived a life with all the Hallmarks of a closet homo. Roberts did pro bono work for the Colorado people pushing for gay marriage at the very beginning of the movement.

It’s pretty obvious Roberts is going to line up against America again

“a man who loves other men cannot be treated differently by an employer than a woman who loves men.”

Why not? It is basic freedom of association.

No one should be forced to associate with someone they do not wish to associate with.

No private employer should be forced to hire someone they do not wish to hire.

*Elena Kagan stated that “a man who loves other men cannot be treated differently by an employer than a woman who loves men.”*

It occurred to me after reading this sentence how the left has muddied the water by using “love” as a synonym for “sexually attracted to.”

Pretty soon it will be adults who “love” children.

Somehow or another the words “oral” and “sex” in the title construe yet a different meaning.

This should have less to do with “who loves whom” and more to do with acceptable behavior in a professional, social environment.

...and how in hell does a federal judge have any Constitutional authority to tell a private business how it must operate.

Not even the Supreme Court has the right to issue decisions on what is established fact. There are two sexes, and you cannot move from one to the other.

Also, the right of a business to establish its own DRESS CODE.

There’s a few witty comebacks to be made but not without the risk of getting suspended :)

Just say “It depends on what the definition of “is” is.” :)

Her question shows why she certainly does not have the intellect to be on the bench. As far as I can tell from the article that was not an issue at all. The issue was whether a person can be protected from employer discipline by claiming discrimination. A heterosexual would also be fired if he groped a woman during a tandem sky dive.

Your thoughts are exactly what came to my mind first.

Elena Kagan stated that “a man who loves other men cannot be treated differently by an employer than a woman who loves men.” What's love got to do with it? It's not always love. That's how the leftists always play it, but sometimes it's just desire and genital activity. And when is it appropriate to tell a client what your orientation is? The gay skydiver-instructor who wanted to make women strapped to his front "more comfortable?" I'd rather have a straight guy who was professional about it.

Sure, you can “love” anybody anyway you want, but if you want to work for a Christian business, you still have to adhere to their dress code.

I don’t know what relevance Kagan’s question has to this particular case.

How is “I’m gay so it’s OK if I touch your lady parts” different than “I’m a woman too, so it’s OK if I touch your lady parts”

Not wanting to be touched by anyone is your right.

It’s called assault no matter who does it.

Gay people should NOT be supporting cases of allowing assault under guise of being ‘gay’
