THREE HORSEMEN. Senator Mazie Hirono calls Justices, Gorsuch, Thomas, and Alito “the three horsemen of the apocalypse.” “This is like the three horsemen of the apocalypse, and they’re waiting for the fourth one to come along so that they can go on their trend toward what I call our extremism.”

Markus Gutfleisch: Warum gerade Christdemokraten die Homoehe befürworten sollten
Die Ehe für alle ist zutiefst christlich, weil sie das Zusammenleben in lesbischen und schwulen Partnerschaften als gleichwertig definiert und umständliche, diskriminierende Sonderbestimmungen überflüssig macht.

Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch showcases his anti-LGBTQ activism and rules against LGBTQ parents
Gorsuch’s opinion falls right in line with anti-LGBTQ attacks from the Trump Administration, would turn back clock on LGBTQ rights
NEW YORK – GLAAD, the world’s largest LGBTQ media advocacy organization, today questioned U.S. Supreme Court Associate Justice Neil Gorsuch’s true stance on equal rights for LGBTQ people after authoring the dissent for the Pavan v. Smith case yesterday, which granted married same-sex couples the right to have names of both parents on their child’s birth certificates. Justice Gorsuch’s choice to be the lead in the dissent opinion is the latest example in his long history of anti-LGBTQ activism, which GLAAD pointed out during his confirmation process last winter.
Fortunately, the Supreme Court of the United States yesterday ruled in favor of the LGBTQ couple from Arkansas in a 6-3 decision. In fact, Pavan v. Smith could be viewed as a compass on how the nation’s highest court could land on the upcoming Masterpiece Cakeshop, Ltd. v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission case, which questions a person’s ability to use religion as a weapon to openly discriminate against LGBTQ Americans based on so-called “religious exemption” grounds. The Supreme Court announced yesterday that it would take up this case in the fall.
GLAAD urges the media and Americans to highlight Justice Gorsuch’s opinion on Pavan v. Smith because it could be an indication on where he will fall in the Masterpiece case. Further, Gorsuch’s dissent falls directly in line with the Trump Administration and its pattern of eraring LGBTQ Americans from the fabric of this nation. For a look at the administration’s anti-LGBTQ activism since the start of Donald Trump’s presidency, check out GLAAD’s Trump Accountability Project.
