We should start calling this law SCOTUScare ... [T]his Court's two decisions on the Act will surely be remembered through the years ...

Many Americans do not want persons who openly engage in homosexual conduct as partners in their business, as scoutmasters for their children, as teachers in their children's schools, or as boarders in their home. They view this as protecting themselves and their families from a lifestyle that they believe to be immoral and destructive.
