In what is being hailed as a landmark ruling, Neil Gorsuch - appointed to the Supreme Court of the United States by our president and savior Donald J. Trump - wrote the majority opinion in a 6-3 ruling yesterday that determined it was unconstitutional to fire a gay person due to their gaiety. Justice Gorsuch applied the conservative legal philosophy of Strict Constructionism - a philosophy much derided and hated by progressives - to determine gays should be protected.
Those who adopted the Civil Rights Act might not have anticipated their work would lead to this particular result. But the limits of the drafters' imagination supply no reason to ignore the law's demands. Only the written word is law.
