Supreme Court writes law. Can't fire someone for being gay or transgender

[Text Drivers are Killers]

A federal law says you can't fire someone because of their sex. It says nothing about firing someone over their sexual orientation or gender identity but the judges rewrote the law even though the constitution says they can't do that. Only congress can write laws.

june 15 2020 Washington — The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Monday that it is illegal for an employer to fire someone because of their sexual orientation or gender identity, delivering a major victory in the fight for civil rights for LGBTQ people.

The court's 6-3 ruling extends the scope of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which bars discrimination on the basis of sex, race, color, national origin and religion, to include LGBTQ people. Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Neil Gorsuch, who authored the majority's opinion, joined the liberal wing of the bench in ruling that "an employer who fires an individual merely for being gay or transgender violates Title VII."

"Judges are not free to overlook plain statutory commands on the strength of nothing more than suppositions about intentions or guesswork about expectations," Gorsuch wrote. "In Title VII, Congress adopted broad language making it illegal for an employer to rely on an employee's sex when deciding to fire that employee. We do not hesitate to recognize today a necessary consequence of that legislative choice: An employer who fires an individual merely for being gay or transgender defies the law."

Really surprised to see gorsuch go along with this. The constitution says "All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a congress of the united states". Courts can't write laws but gorsuch is doing just that..

It will be unsurprising when liberals pass legislation next year you will suddenly not begrudge the power of the scotus
to expound and interpret the constitution.

Don't even pretend you have ANY principles, racist shitstain.

You are too stupid to even understand the issue. The constitution says courts are not allowed to write laws and yet that's what they did here. Congress should handle this.

Gorsuch obviously took a bribe like all judges do.

The courts, legislature, and all our institutions have no authority the justice system is rigged the only justice comes out of the end of a gun.

After the 5-4 same-sex ruling, this was inevitable, even though it's wholly an overstep by the Supreme Court.

The jewish wing of the Supreme Court is four votes 100% to whatever lefty cause. The Constitution is irrelevant to the Jews. All it takes is one of the five real judges to step over to give them a victory.

Obama tried to give give the Jewish wing a fifth vote, Garland, which would have nullified the Constitution. Maybe it would have been for the best. The sooner it happens, the sooner we have have a bloody civil war and restore American freedom.

I wasn't surprised.

Gays frighten these manly Republicans.

I read an article which speculated that Roberts knew where Gorsuch was going to decide, and joined the majority so that, as the senior justice, he could pick who would write the opinion.

Congress wrote a law in 1964. Some retarded Virginian got sex added to the bill in hopes of undermining it. Andrew McCarthy wrote on NR that it's probably a bad idea to troll people when crafting legislation, because it can generate confusion.
