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

Posted on 06/30/2023 8:06:05 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

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 guess she never read the part about "We hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal"..."

She reserves her "right" to ignore sexist parts of the Constitution when she makes judicial decisions.

“sexual orientation minority groups...” It’s official. Her mind is gone, kaput, and broken.

Although the words are from The Declaration of Independence, (appropriate as we approach Independence Day) we did fight a war to free ourselves from “protected classes”.

She is gay... letting his or her personal feelings cloud her “judgment” and essentially putting herself in favor of DNC politics in lieu of US LAW.

She has a mental illness that she cannot overcome or cope with to be objective in the legal world.

Trump can probably have her impeachment in 2025.

Thanks for the correction, should have known.

I assume you understand my post was sarcastic. Her job is to make decisions based on Constitutional law, not current events.

Those “wise latinas” don’t need no stinkin’ knowledge of the constitution or the law. They are just smarter than the rest of us and always remind us of that.

Not surprised, but she wasn’t paying attention to the affirmative action strike down yesterday.

The key point is they’re not denied service. She’ll take gays as any kind of client but she won’t do gay wedding sites for anyone no matter who asks from straight to whatever the latest alphabet grouping is.

For some reason I’m getting that scene from Slap Shot in my head where Reg taunts Hanrahan the goalie yelling She’s a Lesbian, A Lesbian, A Lesbian!

Should a black web designer be able to refuse to design a website for the KKK?

I think it will be amusing, when, in a year or so, the overall numbers of blacks and Hispanics entering colleges and universities doesn’t decrease, but increases...

If memory serves me correct, it’s never televised, but there is, but they will stream the audio. Probably looking for a soundbite is my guess.
