It's a good ruling, but framing it as good news masks the fact that the law is only necessary because intolerance and religious coercion is growing at the social and local level. It was passed in direct response to a videotaped incident.

"Good news" doesn't have to mean "the overall trends are good". Something good can happen among a trend of bad things, and acknowledging the good thing doesn't mean denying the bad things.
