Holy shit. Supreme Court just declared open season on women.

No, they declared Colorado's law is bad. This was a decision written by a liberal woman, joined by the other two liberal justices and four of the conservative ones. They do not have it out for women.

They essentially said that the messages he sent were covered under the first amendment. Have you read the messages he sent?

Among Counterman's communications to Whalen were messages that read: "Was that you in the white Jeep?" and "You're not being good for human relations. Die. Don't need you." Others used expletives.

Counterman, citing mental illness and delusions, argued that his messages were not intended to be threatening and were thus protected speech.

Not the guy you responded to but god damn... I can't see that message being interpreted as anything BUT a threat. All I gotta do is declare insanity I guess.
