    Quite a leap from unconstitutional restrictions on 1A (and probably a 10A argument as well), to "firing fags".

    Creating exceptions to the bill of rights for social policy goals (that half the country either don't support or are actively opposed to) will inevitably turn around and bite you in the ass when the "other side" is in power.

    Did OSHA suddenly disappear?

    Pretty sure we have laws against that.

    I know certain parties of the yellow press would like to convince their slowly crumbling viewership/readership that we became a third-world hellhole overnight last November, but their agenda has a somewhat less than passing acquaintance with the truth.

    I'm sure there will be a lawsuit, assuming one hasn't already been filed. Just as I'm sure the 9th Circus will eventually affirm. Then SCOTUS will eventually get around to slapping them down. Again.

      Oh, wait, so social justice is okay now? Maybe I'd been confused because of so many mixed dogwhistles.

      Did OSHA suddenly disappear?

      So we're good with government regulating commerce?

      Not a problem either? Go social justice, then.

      For instance, the abolition of slavery. Comes a time, you take that bite, comes a time you bite back.

      I'm sure there will be a lawsuit

      Of the seven other U.S. jurisdictions where this is already law, I think only Philadelphia's still in court. So what is that, the Third Circus?
