Aww yeah, my hometown FINALLY has a HERO! Thanks to Judge Shafer's ruling last Friday, the Houston Equal Rights Ordinance is now in effect, and the city is taking steps to enforce it.
Yes, those of us in H-town who have fought tooth and nail to get this ordinance implemented are very happy that the too long and frustrating wait to get a human rights ordinance enacted has resulted in another victory for our side.
But as you know conservaevil never sleeps.
In addition to making their usual threats to knock Judge Shafer (who is a Democrat) off the Harris County bench, they are desperately judge shopping so they can get an appeals trial started and completed before the August Texas Secretary of State deadline to print ballots for the November 2015 elections.
If they miss that deadline, wouldn't be on the ballot until 2016.
