Sotomayor blasts court in scathing dissent on same-sex wedding case
The Hill ^ | 06/30/2023 | ELLA LEE

Justice Sonia Sotomayor blasted the Supreme Court’s 6-3 decision to back a Christian wedding website designer’s choice not to provide services to gay couples, calling the decision “profoundly wrong” in a scathing dissenting argument read from the bench.

“Today, the Court, for the first time in its history, grants a business open to the public a constitutional right to refuse to serve members of a protected class,” Sotomayor wrote.

The associate justice harkened back to the civil rights and women’s rights movements in her dissent, suggesting that in recent years, gender and sexual orientation minority groups have faced “backlash to the movement for liberty and equality.”

I was initially happy to hear the result, but if the wise Latina/ left wing stooge hack doesn’t like the result, perhaps I should reconsider

Hard to believe she can’t see the distinction between immutable physical characteristics and personal decisions to define one’s life in terms of sexual perversions.

Tard didn’t belong on the court in the first place.

It isn’t a protected class, it is a protected choice.

“They shopped around until they found the right Christian then went to court”

more like: They shopped around until they found the right Christian case to litigate, and then went to court.

Scathe all you want baby it will do no good.

However, before the end of summer these race baiting, poverty pimping, queer loving cretins will have their followers whipped into a frenzy and rioting.

Even liberal (Laurence Tribe) felt she had the intellectual capacity of a sponge and shouldn’t be anywhere near the USSC.

She likes to read her dissents from the bench. She’s done this before.

I wonder why. Does she get more attention from the talking heads on MSNBC when she “dramatically” espouses the liberal view which just got outvoted????

They are NOT a protected class, by law.

Though the left would LIKE them to be under the BS STORY about GENDER protections.

The court essentially ruled that “gender” protections applies to the male and female genders...and there are no others.

Homos/trans are NOT a protected class.

Major ruling.
