Now THERE'S a stupid question.
So can someone translate this gibberish? Is this good news or bad news for normal people?
RE: So can someone translate this gibberish? Is this good news or bad news for normal people?
For me, it is BAD NEWS. The Supreme Court ( unlike say, Roe v. Wade or Obergfell v. Hodges ) made a cowardly decision not to tackle an issue that affects the FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS of every American, ensuring further future lawsuits, instead of settling the issue once and for all.
Cop out by the SUPREME COURT, which started this mess in the first place.
The court punted and kicked it back for review by the lower court.
RE: how to balance LGBTQ rights with religious freedom protections
The constitution does not mention LGBTQ rights. But religious freedom is IN the BILL OF RIGHTS. It is the *FIRST* AMENDMENT for a good reason -— this is exactly the right the constitution was designed to protect. It was foremost in the framers minds.
Why the SCOTUS cannot even make a simple decision which should be a no brainer is frustrating to say the least.
Agree
When a constitutional right is in conflict with a non-constitutional right it should be a no brainer
The court sent it back down for review based on Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission.
Kagan wants no part of that cake, LOL.
Perhaps someone with better legal mind can explain it to me, but all Im seeing is an act of cowardice. This matter is as pertinent to the Constitution as it gets.
Looks like we still don’t have a pro-First Amendment majority. The most they could do was throw it back to a lower court. We need another solid Justice or two.
Quite right! Probably most times governments pretend things to be true that aren't true, big problems arise. A few that I can think of off-hand are: the Salem witch hunts; legalized slavery; the holocaust; abortion; and now pretending that homosexuality is normal.
In the long run none of this pretending has/will pass the test of time. In the meantime, millions of people are suffering.
It does seem, more often than not, those losers simply wimp out and refuse to do their effing jobs.
Maybe certain justices want Trump to send them a new conservative justice before they take this case so they can get 5 justices to agree on the decision they want to write.
Notice what the first letter is to see who really wields the power. They are evil, hateful, horrible people. It ain’t like in the movies, guys.
BAD, THEY CAN KEEP SUING CHRISIANS WHO STAND UP OUT OF BUSINESS.
And plenty more as well. It doesn't seem to matter that we supposedly control judicial appointments. They find it impossible to say that their predecessors made stupid and evil decisions.
What's next? People "marrying" their Toyota Corolla?
Idiots.
