So in other words only the wealthy have guaranteed human rights in SA. The rest of us need to just hope the SAHRC considers our case important enough to take to court. We’re going to be feeling the repercussions of this judgement for generations to come

Sadly, it seems that human rights, fought for by so many brave people, are never guaranteed, whether freedom of political expression, women’s rights, religious minority rights or gay rights, to be treated as equal citizens, including the right to same sex marriage, as along comes some oppressive ruling, engineered by a swing in a political party newly in power, and the clock goes back, a terrible form of time travel, giving power to small-minded bigots who would do well to remain silent.
