These are the Anti-Discriminaton Laws of the USA that Elena Kagan had to consider when making her decision regarding miltary recruiters.

It doesn't surprise me that a Republican like Sessions wouldn't have a profound RESPECT for the laws of the USA.  They like to circumvent them and defraud them and obstruct the passage of them rather than ABIDE by them.

Solicitor General Kagan had to take into consideration not only EVERY  CIVILIAN law on the books, she had to consider the By-Laws of the university and the impact on the students and faculty should she simply disregard all of it to allow the USA military 'carte blanc' access to the campus.

Obviously, Sessions believes the USA military has 'Eminent Domane' over every PRIVATE university in the country.

NOT ! 

It was the obligation of Solicitor General Kagan to make the argument on behalf of those that would be most deeply effected by a 'glib' attitude regarding Civil Rights.

Oh, yeah.  Besides the laws below there are also criminal statutes such as "Hate Crimes" statues to consider as well.  You see, sometimes when poeple feel as though an 'entity' of the government can trample Civil Rights as if they are nothing, people get the idea an act of violence, such as the murder of Matthew Shepard, can be justified.

Any decision regarding Civil Rights in a varied society that is the USA carries with it the brevity of the outcomes should they not be taken seriously.

Honestly!
