Supreme Court Rules 6-3 in Favor of Colorado Graphic Artist, Granting Right to Refuse Service to Same-Sex Couples

The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in favor of a Colorado graphic artist, granting her the right to refuse service to same-sex couples due to her religious beliefs. The ruling expands the rights of those who want to discriminate against same-sex couples and is a major victory for religious freedom. Dueling protestors outside the court argued the First Amendment protects the artist's right to express her religious beliefs, while opponents argued it does not protect discrimination.
