I predict it won’t be long before the Federal courts are filled with cases that expose the idiocy of applying “civil rights” protections to people based on SELF-DETERMINED characteristics.

The first major victim here is going to be women’s sports — which probably isn’t such a bad thing, when you see how it has been established over time.

With this decision, the SCOTUS has defacto enacted the ERA(equal rights amendment).

Shocking SCOTUS Decision Shockingly Written by Gorsuch

Not surprised at all. Kennedy made a deal with Trump that he would step down if Trump would nominate Gorsuch. Since Kennedy is the moron that put faggot marriage into America, I had little doubt that his little stooge would vote the way Kennedy liked.

I said it back in 2017, anyone that was educated at Colombia and lives in Boulder Colorado is not a conservative. Never was and never will be.

Along with his BFF Roberts we now have two gays sitting on the Supreme Court.

Maybe the Heritage group can explain why they thought and recommended Gorsuck for the court.

“Where do we go from here?”

Easy - we all make it clear to our employers that we identify as “gay” (regardless of our actual situations, or what our co-workers know of them). Are they going to ask us to prove it?

In fact, doing so might save our jobs from foreign replacements...

He was a member of a pro-homosexual congregation when Bush Jr. picked him. Why is anyone surprised.

Has anyone ever seen a justice morph from left to right?

Where do we go from here?

Just where we're currently going.. "NOWHERE FAST!"

The court has become concerned with being 'politically correct" rather than clearly and honestly interpreting the U.S. Constitution.

No one should ever say this is a conservative court. Meanwhile, Gorsuch suffers from Stockholm Syndrome and thinks he can make friends with the left. Poor, pathetic, coward.

"In Bostock v. Clayton County, Georgia, the axis of evil decided that in Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the word “sex” includes “sexual orientation” and “gender identity”—both subjectively constituted conditions [!!! emphasis added]."

Regarding “subjectively constituted conditions,” please note that a previous generation of Supreme Court justices had condemned subjective interpretations of the Constitution.

It’s probably easier for us deplorables to objectively interpret the Constitution than it is for justices since we never paid big bucks for our brains to be institutionally indoctrinated with politically correct interpretations of the Constitution like even the so-called conservative justices evidently did.

On the other hand, if Justice Gorsuch and his likewise misguided, liberal colleagues on the bench were regular readers of Free Republic, they might have reluctantly decided the case against Mr. Bostock as per the following explanation.

To begin with, if this were a better world, the first thing that the Supreme Court should check when examining any case related to a federal law is if the states had given Congress the express constitutional power to make the law in the first place. (Checking laws against enumerated powers should be a constitutionally enumerated requirement for the Supreme Court since we know that Congress cannot be trusted to police itself, and we can't always trust the Oval Office to police Congress either.)

That being noted, with the exception of religion-related protections in that law, probably most of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (CRA '64) and its titles are unconstitutional imo. This is because the only constitutionally express powers that the states have given to Congress to police INTRAstate race and sex-discrimination issues are limited to voting rights issues, evidenced by the 15th and 19th Amendment.

In fact, regardless of misguided Justice Gorsuch’s institutionally proper sophistry concerning sex, seemingly an attempt to force today’s politically correct meanings of the word “sex” into CRA '64, Gorsuch should have reviewed the history of the 19th Amendment to avoid the wrong conclusion instead of not seeing the forest for the trees like he did imo.

More specifically, when the 19th century Supreme Court examined the 14th Amendment-related voting rights case of Minor v. Happersett, the Court did not suggest that Virginia Minor might consider claiming to be a man in order to be able to vote under the voting laws of her state, but decided the case against her.

The Supreme Court thus arguably established a precedent for recognizing only the biological male and female sexes under the Constitution imo, this precedent effectively becoming a part of the Constitution when the states ratified the 19th Amendment imo.

“3. The right of suffrage was not necessarily one of the privileges or immunities of citizenship before the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment, and that amendment does not add to these privileges and immunities. It simply furnishes additional guaranty for the protection of such as the citizen already had [emphasis added].” —Minor v. Happersett, 1874.

In fact, in stark contrast to Gorsuch’s wide interpretation of sex, Thomas Jefferson had smartly encouraged interpreting the Constitution narrowly in order to force the states to make a decision about possible new powers for Congress.

"In every event, I would rather construe so narrowly as to oblige the nation to amend, and thus declare what powers they would agree to yield, than too broadly, and indeed, so broadly as to enable the executive and the Senate to do things which the Constitution forbids." —Thomas Jefferson: The Anas, 1793.

Patriots will certainly take advantage of the golden opportunity to begin the process of reversing the Court’s decision in Bostock v. Clayton County, Georgia when they send "Orange Man Bad" federal and state government Democrats and RINOs home in November!

New patriot federal and state government leaders should not only promise to fully support PDJT's already excellent work for MAGA, but also need to promise to start impeachment and removal process for Constitution-ignoring justices.

I’m at the point that I believe God is shining a very bright on everyone, doing everything. So it’s in the glaring wide open for ALL to see and no one can hide anything anymore. I think time is about up and He is cleaning up loose ends before His wrath falls.

Well, he was a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, but I was hoping he would be an originalist-even though I was skeptical. This is legislating from the bench. This civil rights act was not written to mean anything other than distinguishing male or female-nothing to do with sexual orientation.

The remedy is for Congress to pass legislation stating that definition and intent, but they won’t do it. Getting sick and tired of the courts mandating crap that couldn’t possibly get passed in a legislature.

Commies wanted to destroy the family and this was one part of their plan to destroy American culture, so score another one for the Commie/Radicals.
