They appear to have ruled that way because the contract the city was using allowed for exemptions from its non-discrimination rule but the city refused to give an exemption to this catholic service, thus treating them differently that other service providers on the basis on their religious beliefs. A clear case of discrimination hence the 9:0 verdict.

You can expect that just about any time the word “rights” is in a headline.

Yeah i meant headline there... But really this is in no way limited to that narrow topic. I'm constantly having to cite the body of an article back at people when they link me a headline as proof of some dumb shit.
