Gays gain rights while black people seem to lose them. What a day...

I'm sorry, I'm not from the US. What do you mean black people seem to lose rights?

Neither am I.

This seems like it has the potential to greatly affect the voting rights of minorities, though.


Or not, the only thing that was struck down is that 9 states dont have to get aproval from the federal government to change their state laws.  If those states do pass laws that are restrictive, then the laws can be disputed just like in any other state that passes laws that may not be constitutional.  You cant hold these 9 states responsible for racist actions into the infinite future, at some point the training wheels must come off.


Great post! But after the last election I won't put so much trust into those happenings.
