This, imo, is an even more dangerous precedent, and came directly from the ruling. I still can't believe I actually read this:
'To pass rational basis scrutiny, ordinances need not be
supported by scientific studies or empirical data; nor need they be effective in practice. Rather, “it is enough that there is an evil at hand for correction, and that it might be thought that the
particular legislative measure was a rational way to correct it.”'
Wow. What's next, criminal defendants are guilty until proven innocent. This is insanity.
