1. After Masterpiece, It's Time to Change the Constitution

From The New York Times: "We can't keep litigating the equality of gay and lesbian Americans. We need an equal-rights amendment."

2. Supreme Court Sides With Anti-Gay Baker. It's Not a Loss for LGBT Equality.

From The Daily Beast: "A Christian baker can refuse service to a same-sex couple for now, but only because the state called his beliefs 'offensive.' Even liberal justices agreed."

3. In baker's case, neither side has much reason to rejoice

From The Washington Post: "Both proponents of gay rights and defenders of Christians who refuse to provide certain services to gay couples will, no doubt, read much more into the decision handed down today than is warranted."
