Today’s the big day in Houston. From the editorial board of the New York Times comes a blistering denouncement of the ridiculous arguments put out by the haters.

“HERO would impose new, and potentially ruinous liability on innocent citizens for alleged ‘discrimination’ based not on objective traits, but on subjective and unverifiable identities.
