Feels like a bit of a slippery slope could happen as a result of this

Not sure how they are ruling "against" LGBTBBQ+ or whatever. It's a common sense ruling, and those that complain that they can't force people to act a certain way are tyrants.

That there were 3 dissenters on this shows we have some real morons on the court. Or maybe they are just evil.

In what way? If a business wants to discriminate, let them. I bet most would find that discrimination is not the best way to grow their market and money. Some might thrive. But if you knew someone is hateful towards you, what is it but spite to try to force them to serve you?

No. In this situation there was no customer. The plaintiff was suing bc the state had the ability to compel her to go against her religious beliefs

I have not read the decision. Was the rationale one of compelled speech or religious freedom? I agree that a business owner should not be forced to create speech if the owner disagrees with the speech. If I'm a sign company, I shouldn't be forced to make signs espousing something I find detestable (such as some Nazi, white supremacist messaging).

LOL. Democrats make those kind of signs out themselves & then go stand in the middle of the street blocking traffic to get their loony agenda out like the degenerates they are 24/7.

Right or left, we all value free speech and the first amendment is the foundation of a free society. I haven't read the dissenting positions, but I can't imagine they are compelling.

This is a horrible thread title.

Exactly, should be titled "Supreme Court rules in favor of free speech"

So do business owners not have a right to refuse goods or services anymore?

I remember going into stores as a kid in the 80's and seeing signs "No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service"!

If I own a business I should be allowed to refuse service based on the color shirt your wearing that day just because it's my business.

In today's hostile climate, the loonys will burn it down if you make'em mad enough.

Those 3 are partisan hacks. To be fair, Thomas and Alito are partisan hacks as well....

WNBA champion says America is 'trash in so many ways' amid SCOTUS rulings

Washington Mystics player Natasha Cloud ripped the U.S. on Friday amid multiple rulings by the Supreme Court.

Following a day in which the Supreme Court rejected the use of race as a factor in college admissions as a violation of the 14th Amendment's equal protection clause, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of artist Lorie Smith on Friday.

"Our country is trash in so many ways and instead of using our resources to make it better we continue to oppress Marginalized groups that we have targeted since the beginning of times," Cloud posted to Twitter.

"Black/brown communities& LGBTQ+ man we are too powerful to still be attacking issues separate."

State of Michigan is turning into the first Fascist state in the U.S.

Be interesting how a law like this would do under today's decision. Compelling the use of a pronoun may not fly.

As opposed to the non slippery slope that led us to the supreme court.

I'm sure Gretchen's husband is misgendering at the lake house as I type this post

Perhaps some time in a Russian prison would give her some perspective.
