"The Supreme Court issued a contentious 5-4 decision at the end of its term Monday, decreeing that Hobby Lobby \u2014 and by extension any other \"closely held\" family company \u2014 did not have to pay for employee contraception under the Affordable Care Act. \nFurious at the decision, many Twitter users took to the service to express their rage. The Supreme Court has no Twitter account \u2014 but try telling that to the activists who tweeted at SCOTUSblog, an independent and highly respected news site that covers the court, as if it were the court itself. \nSee also: Supreme Court: Family-Owned Companies Can Refuse Contraceptive Coverage\nSCOTUSblog decided to have a little fun with the mistake, responding to and reposting more than a dozen outraged tweets and counting:\n\nWe thought blogging seemed very 21st century. MT @Iiuslep: @SCOTUSblog want to obliterate any progressive acheivement of 20th century.\n\u2014 SCOTUSblog (@SCOTUSblog) June 30, 2014\n\n\nFailure of democracy. MT @Rockinwil: Time to do away with the @SCOTUSblog since they are no longer representing citizens of the US.\n\u2014 SCOTUSblog (@SCOTUSblog) June 30, 2014\n\n\nBut you complete us. MT @stevenwishnoff: @SCOTUSblog You disgust me.\n\u2014 SCOTUSblog (@SCOTUSblog) June 30, 2014\n\n\nWhen you start reading our description. MT @ProgressivesWin: @SCOTUSblog When will you start honoring the constitution. #5OldBigots\n\u2014 SCOTUSblog (@SCOTUSblog) June 30, 2014\n\n\nYou are not the 1st &amp; won\u2019t be the last @JayRooTheDee: everyone should tweet @SCOTUSblog and tell them what we think of their misogyny.\n\u2014 SCOTUSblog (@SCOTUSblog) June 30, 2014\n\n\nThank God RT @aclery: @Pontifex please help United States #women &amp; tell @SCOTUSblog that denying health care because of sex is dehumanizing.\n\u2014 SCOTUSblog (@SCOTUSblog) June 30, 2014\n\n\nOr eating the cheap Kung Pao Chicken MT @NYCPainter1: Of all the bad decisions @SCOTUSblog made the last few years, #HobbyLobby is the worst\n\u2014 SCOTUSblog (@SCOTUSblog) June 30, 2014\n\n\nLeast we could do.

MT @opinali: @SCOTUSblog today you have f@cked up real hard. Go read the f@cking First Amendment again, OK?\n\u2014 SCOTUSblog (@SCOTUSblog) June 30, 2014\n\n\nUm, call your ISP? RT @controlmemore: @SCOTUSblog kicked down my front door and stole my freedom. What do I do now?????\n\u2014 SCOTUSblog (@SCOTUSblog) June 30, 2014\n\n\nCome at us, bro MT @mazurslovedogs: @SCOTUSblog manages to screw up or endanger everyone\u2019s life. Maybe someone needs to discuss impeachment!\n\u2014 SCOTUSblog (@SCOTUSblog) June 30, 2014\n\nEven these hilarious responses didn't dissuade several Twitter users from believing the account speaks for the Supreme Court. (One later claimed she did so because @SCOTUSblog has a \"verified\" account.)\n\nThe passive aggressive way @SCOTUSblog is answering right now is horrible considering the position they just put women in. Not okay.\n\u2014 Oliver Christensen (@WollyWollenberg) June 30, 2014\n\n\nHave y'all seen what @SCOTUSblog is tweeting? #MyGovernmentIsBeingPassiveAggressive #Awkward\n\u2014 Lena FGM (@sayyeslena) June 30, 2014\n\nA PSA for all those offended by the decision: you can reach the Supreme Court using old-fashioned technology. Call the court offices at 202-479-3000, or send a letter to the following address:\nSupreme Court of the United States 1 First Street, NE Washington, DC 20543\nOr if you want to vent on Twitter, how about the company that brought the case in the first place?\n\nToday #SCOTUS has granted a landmark victory for #religiousfreedom, ruling in favor of Hobby Lobby.
