WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court ruled Monday that a landmark civil rights law protects LGBT people from discrimination in employment, a resounding victory for LGBT rights from a conservative court.
The court decided by a 6-3 vote that a key provision of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 known as Title VII that bars job discrimination because of sex, among other reasons, encompasses bias against LGBT workers.
“An employer who fires an individual for being homosexual or transgender fires that person for traits or actions it would not have questioned in members of a different sex. Sex plays a necessary and undisguisable role in the decision, exactly what Title VII forbids,” Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote for the court.
Justices Samuel Alito, Brett Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas dissented.
“The Court tries to convince readers that it is merely enforcing the terms of the statute, but that is preposterous. Even as understood today, the concept of discrimination because of ‘sex’ is different from discrimination because of ‘sexual orientation’ or ‘gender identity,’” Alito wrote in a dissent that was joined by Thomas.
In Anthony’s defense, I’ll say that President Trump retweets his own tweets fairly frequently. It is a way of emphasizing something the mainstream media continues to distort.
Obviously, Anthony isn’t feeling heard.
So there. 🤣
Quoting your own quote?
The other moderators have met and we are suspending you without pay for two days. I hope you learn your lesson.
Adding another question: what about immigrants? My family fled the potato famine and were coal miners on one side, sharecroppers on the other. How does anyone figure we have anything to do with slavery?
New York was the last northern state to outlaw slavery in 1827. Yet, blacks in NY are in arguably worse shape than blacks in North Carolina where they were kept as slaves much longer.
That Dem dog just isn’t going to hunt. They want no treatment for Covid to work, they want no thriving economy, they want no gatherings unless they’re leftie causes ... they’re a death cult. And they will destroy themselves.
I think ALL the advertisers which for PGA are investment firms, luxury cars, watches, banks, etc are totally on board with this BLM, PC, Woke, SJW crap. I believe Corporate America thinks that their prime demographics are now MOSTLY indoctrinated, Leftist stooges.
Reparations are nothing more than wealth redistribution.
And who speaks more to wealth redistribution? Communist.
Should tell everyone who is behind all of this.
It would be hard (even for him) to lie his way out of the CDC claiming that there was no risk to rioters getting the chinese virus, but protesting the illegal lockdowns would still give you the chinese virus.
Let it happen.
Let these people get their fill of these fucking liberal progressive idiots. They keep voting them in, so, “drink up bitches!”.. You are getting the government you elected.
Rioters vandalized the Robert Gould Shaw 54th Regiment monument, which celebrates the first all-volunteer black regiment of the Union Army during the Civil War.
“A thousand men signed up just after President Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation, just think about that,” Liz Vizza, executive director of Friends of the Public Garden, told ABC affiliate WCVB. “These are men who, if they were captured in the South, would be enslaved or murdered. But this cause was so important to them, they signed up to go fight for their freedom.”
The monument stands across from the Massachusetts State House. The monument is currently covered in plywood to protect it during restoration to reinforce the sword held by Robert Gould Shaw. Rioters covered the plywood in obscene graffiti and spray-painted more obscenities along with the message “R.I.P. George Floyd” on the back of the monument.
