Last year the U.S. Supreme Court reversed Roe v. Wade ending a woman's right to choose whether or not to terminate her pregnancy [click here if you missed that].
Yesterday the U.S. Supreme Court struck down Affirmative Action [click here if you missed that].
Today the Supreme Court ruled in favor of a graphic designer who does not want to make websites for gay people...
From The AP
In a defeat for gay rights, the Supreme Court’s conservative majority ruled Friday that a Christian graphic artist who wants to design wedding websites can refuse to work with same-sex couples.
The court ruled 6-3 for designer Lorie Smith despite a Colorado law that bars discrimination based on sexual orientation, race, gender and other characteristics. Smith had argued that the law violates her free speech rights.
Smith’s opponents warned that a win for her would allow a range of businesses to discriminate, refusing to serve Black, Jewish or Muslim customers, interracial or interfaith couples or immigrants. But Smith and her supporters had said that a ruling against her would force artists — from painters and photographers to writers and musicians — to do work that is against their beliefs.

This is a tricky one.
Both sides have valid points
Why couldn't they go to a shop that caters to Lbgqt. They wouldn't go muslim butcher shop to cut up a pig.
I wish the Supreme Court could vote to end this blog. Have a great Friday !!! I know I am but stay in the basement posting “news” ok
So a Hebrew Israelite dog walker can refuse to walk a white woman's dog because she's a devil? Hmm ok
They should have a network and know who to do business with. Have they learned nothing from history? Stop trying to force people your take your money. That could apply to any and everybody.
Breaking: ESPN cuts. Whose been cut?
That’s not a tricky one. That’s his choice. Some people don’t do anything for money. Work for who you want to work for.
Do y’all understand this is how yt legally justified segregating businesses in the South? “We don’t want to do business with those people.” This is a disaster for errybody black, not just the alphabets.
@12:01 They don't get it OR their hate and bigotry is bigger than their concern for their OWN rights. This is YT's plan and it's working fabulously.
Who cares… black people need to stop spending money with everybody anyway. Learn to be financially racist like everybody else!
12:45 you should care bc you can’t think far enough. You’re only thinking of frivolous spending but you need to be thinking about which buyers/suppliers you NEED that now don’t have to sell to you.
Some vendors, stores, do that anyway when they say they cant because of scheduling.
T biz.
Yt biz.

All Ketanji Brown had to do was define what is a woman during her confirmation hearing. I knew she was being set up. Her refusal to do so, gave the senior judges ammunition they needed to go after liberal interests and affirmative action would be first on the chopping block.
12:01 exactly.
White members of the alphabet mafia are always suing folks. White ppl, regardless of how they choose to identify sexually or otherwise, are not discriminated against, and like the Karens, they are used to having things their way. When someone refuses to bow down, their nasty asses sue. Had they left that damn woman alone this would not have happened. White folks know what they are doing. They are busy destroying the rights of black and brown people knowing they themselves will never have to deal with real discrimination in the workplace or otherwise. No one is doing better off financially in this country than two white men boinking each other. Gay white male relationships have the highest income amongst all couples. They will be doing just fine, while busy suing and destroying protections for other groups of ppl.
