We are now left with “separate but equal.”

Think about it. Traditional "separate but equal" referred to physical accomodations, physical things, or physical controls, not imagined slights.

Specifically, the government may eventually arrest me for calling a cripple a cripple, instead of normal, but they can't legislate the faux "equilevancy." Well, OK, they can, but so what? Separate but equal does not transfer to words.

The word marriage has been taken; for millenia.

I’m not suggesting that I agree with the interpretation I laid out — but I fear the courts may conclude that.

The whole thing is just insane, IMO.
