Oral arguments




Discrimination may reign when the decision comes out, but the oral arguments made it look as petty, small, and arbitrary as it is.  And the fact of harm to the minority and our children seems to have been conceded, implicitly.  The rationale is looking rickety as heck.

That's my armchair expert opinion, having listened to many an oral argument regarding these issues as the sands have shifted and the old bright lines have blurred and faded.

I had to laugh at the idea that "the experiment" was only four years old.  Except that it's cruel to say that to an elderly couple who's been together 40 years, or whatever.  I mean, really.
