Everyone is entitled to equal protection under the law. The fact that you can't put your bigotry aside simply because you don't like who the laws protect, speaks more about your lack of morals than anything else.

Read the complaint. I know you like to ignore me when I make valid points, but there was nothing in that 52 page pile of bullshit that proved she alone was solely responsible for all the requests he denied. The fact that you keep insisting that she was, goes to show you don't even bother properly reading the links you provide.
