The decision basically states public organizations that have a nondiscrimination policy can require groups that wish recognition by the organization to comply with the policy so long as the policy is not expressly biased against the group seeking recognition and requires every group who wants recognition to be in accordance with the policy of the organization.
Or public organizations can set up rules according to the desire of the organization and groups that seek privileges must abide by the rules to receive those privileges.
If you only want the relevant links its 1 and 3. 2 is the outline of the case, and the last one is for those interested in Justice Stevens.

The United States says goodbye to a very principled and respectable man. I am glad that Stevens gave us Romer v. Evans and that his dissent in Bowers v. Hardwick became the ruling of the Supreme Court in Lawerence v. Texas.
