Liars lie, and judges are liars.
The vote was 6 to 3, with Justice Neil M. Gorsuch writing the majority opinion. He was joined by Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. and Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen G. Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.
The Black-robed Priests have spoken.
Why was it up before the court again. This was settled law in 1964. What am I missing...beside reading the article.
Ug
And the trial lawyers all hoisted a toast to continued extortion of business.
Gorsuch and Roberts joined the 4 Leftists.

I actually saw this as good news. You can only discriminate based on traits that affect their ability to to the job. That applies to race, sex, age, number of limbs, etc. I’m not really seeing the problem with this.
If the article form this Lying leftist Media outlet is true, then,
Supreme Court rules existing UNCONSTITUTIONAL civil rights law protects gay and lesbian workers
Never hire a homosexual. They will always tear down any organization they join.
Trust me, I work in HR this stuff happens all the time when an employer wants to get rid of an employee for being obnoxious or a troublemaker but is afraid of being sued, you just need to invent a "legitimate" reason and document it.
A very bad day for strict constructionists and for people who take the separation of powers seriously.
The minority opinion is worth reading. They correctly point out that whether discrimination based on sexual orientation should be unlawful is something the legislative branch should and was debating. Bills were introduced numerous times to add it to the law.
But it’s simply not the job of the court to change the meaning of a statute.
And its’ a VERY VERY bad day for people who hoped Gorsuch would be a strict constructionist.
Sorry to seem like a defeatist but this decision makes the 2020 election a lot less important in my opinion.
You can always count on Roberts to come to the rescue of homos
Now that Gorsuch is the new Justice Kennedy, what case is next on the Agenda?
The court is rewriting the meaning of the law in effect creating a new law.
“ sexual orientation discrimination was a form of sex discrimination.”
“Sex” when the law was written meant biological sex i.e male and female. “Sexual orientation” means sexual behavior whether it’s constructive or the destructive result of mental illness.
In the present this sets up revoking faithful Christian organizations 501c3 status.
Also with this ruling the court is opening up a court ordered legalization of pedophilia which is widely regarded among “experts” to be a sexual orientation.
But they said when an employer fires a male employee for dating men, but not a female employee who dates men, that violates the law.
Logic missing they ruled to give special treatment to gays.
The Civil Rights Act targeted immutable characteristics, not lifestyle choices.
Great, when a company hires a sales manager that looks to be a normal man, you can’t fire him when he shows up for work in a mini skirt, lipstick, and a 3 day beard.
Well then, I am gay now
The Supreme Court just opened up a window and threw science out of it.
