A lot of truly terrible rulings by the SC ... they are indeed on a roll and the dissent by Bader-Ginsberg was EP-IC!

At least they recognised "gay conversion therapy" for what it is, torture.

I'm very glad to see the court ruled in favor of Hobby Lobby. Too bad they caved in to the left on conversion therapy, though.

... it literally hurts my head

From initial reports, the Hobby Lobby decision wasn't quite as bad as liberals may have feared, as it limited the scope to closely-held corporations (and presumably, sole-proprietors as well).

Ah good, the ruling only applies to 90% of businesses then. Roll Eyes

Saying the ruling is narrow does not in any way guarantee it is will be applied as precedent in that way in the future... the mine-field analogy is very apt.
