A 6-2 decision, no less. That just killed affirmative action.

There may be some states that consciously want to keep it, but I think the decision opened the door to new legislation in a lot of states to ban it, and with a 6-2 decision it's pretty unassailable if they do.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.
