I'm not sure what is up for debate with this ruling. There was no other possible ruling that could have been made that has any constitutional foundation whatsoever. There is nothing in the constitution that empowers the federal government to force states to allow unequal treatment of people based on race. Even for the best of intentions. The whole idea of affirmative action is extra-constitutional and is put under a huge amount of scrutiny wherever challenged.
