High Court reverses Sotomayor in firefighter case
The Supreme Court has ruled in favor of white Connecticut firefighters in a 5-4 ruling that reverses an appeals court finding by Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor, the Associated Press report.The high court found that the firefighters in New Haven, Conn., were unfairly denied promotions because of their race, reversing a decision that Sotomayor endorsed as an appeals court judge.
...and ugly too.
btw, I must note that the decision handed down by those "esteemed black robes" was by an all too narrow 5 to 4 vote.It should have gone 9-0, if we lived in a just society.
we've won the battle, yet the war rages on.
