人兽性交

WASHINGTON聽鈥斅燭oday, the U.S. Supreme Court 颈苍听303 Creative v. Elenis聽that a Colorado anti-discrimination law violates the First Amendment鈥檚 free speech clause.

鈥淎s states continue passing harmful laws that seek to dehumanize and erase the existence of 人兽性交+ people, we are disappointed to see the Supreme Court deliver yet another blow by allowing business owners鈥� personal prejudice to overcome decades of legal precedent,鈥� said聽Beth Littrell, senior supervising attorney at the Southern Poverty Law Center.

鈥淭his misguided decision fails to recognize that personal, including religious, beliefs about 人兽性交+ people do not form a constitutional basis to discriminate against 人兽性交+ people in public accommodations. Equal access to public goods and services is a cornerstone of civil rights and a free and open society. 聽Although most Americans reject allowing businesses to use religion as an excuse to deny service, six Supreme Court justices have granted businesses a license to discriminate.

鈥淣ondiscrimination laws were not created in a vacuum; they exist to respect the rights of every American because exclusion and segregation in the public market hurt us all. This rollback of civil rights 鈥� first by states and now by the Supreme Court 鈥� threatens all of us. The 人兽性交+ community deserves to enjoy the same rights and privileges as all Americans.鈥�
