But even if someone didn't know that, the fact that court after court has struck these bans down one after the other should maybe have been a clue that this fight is over and the troglodytes have lost.

Duh!

Not on point, but you're absolutely right about Lady Gaga and her weaponized bra! I'd forgotten all about that!
