The United States Supreme court turned away a case in which a woman was fired for being a lesbian. The woman was working as a security guard and challenged the case in a lower district court, and lost she then appealed to the supreme court who denied her saying that they agree with the previous national district court ruling that title IX does not specify sexual orientation and therefore does not apply and this discrimination, while being discrimination is legally allowed. The court shutting this down means that it did not pass the rule of four which means that three or less of the judges disagree with this. With Donald Trump as president with some old justices he could replace those who disagreed even. This is a scary time in America and I remind everyone to stay safe.
