It's pathetic, and makes me angry. Somehow 5 justices on our supreme court managed to uphold a mean-spirited and discriminatory law, basically by twisting all reason around to say that gays and lesbians are not a protected class, which the non-discrimination law passed earlier this year defined these people as. Regardless of their reasons (whether it's bigotry or cowardice) those justices are an abomination to the courts. It’s more than just sad. It’s pathetic, and makes me angry.
