MSNBC legal analyst Charles Coleman on Monday threw cold water on leftist claims that a recent Supreme Court ruling involving a Christian web designer allows for blanket discrimination.

The High Court has sided with Colorado Christian graphic designer Laurie Smith, stating that state law cannot compel her to create a website for same-sex couples that contains messages contrary to her religious beliefs.Smith claimed The law would force her to create a wedding website for same-sex couples, which violates her religious belief that marriage is between a man and a woman.

Coleman was discussing a recent ruling that Tennessee’s law seeking to restrict drag shows is unconstitutional. Coleman said the ruling, along with several other rulings where state law protects women’s sports and bans transition surgery for minors, is a sign that the state legislature “does the bill as planned.” ‘I don’t know how to create it’. And they are consistent with our country’s values ​​as expressed in our Constitution, which is why these laws are not working. “

“Will the recent Supreme Court ruling that website designers not be required to design sites for LGBTQ+ weddings change anything here? Do you have any?” asked the host. (Related: Pete Buttigieg Claims SCOTUS Has an ‘Agenda’ After Ruling Upholding Web Designers’ Freedom of Speech)

“Not so with the law we’re talking about. There are a lot of nuances in that decision and how it’s applied. I think I’m thinking a little too hard that it’s allowed, but it’s not at all, but to answer your question, it’s both yes and no. I’m a lawyer, so I have to say it depends. “
