Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, eliminating constitutional right to abortion

It will be interesting to see the mental gymnastics used by the Supreme Court to get around this one.

 

Hopefully same sex marriage will be next

 

Repugnant position to me, But hey, at least you are honest about it.

Spare me the deniers, deflectors and intellectually dishonest.

 

please post chapter and verse, where the Bible, Hebrew or otherwise, says thou shalt commit abortion.

I'd settle for the Koran too.

 

nah man they need to skip that and go straight back to slavery - look having slaves was great for the economy!

also… remove child labor laws… those were dumb. Kids have it too easy. 8 yo don’t sting Fortnite and what not. Should be working!!!

 

Why do you give a **** about what other people do with their lives? Mind your business, be the drunk God put you on this Earth to be, and keep it moving with that nonsense.

 

whither the rights of babies?

 

No Black people being free is great I suggest women in the military be the next option

@deb4rockets

 

cool, jewish law permits it. does that mean the constitution must? some mormons believe in bigamy, but we generally don't allow it in the US, although some recent Supreme Court cases point a way forward.

sharia law permits some other things that we, as Americans, don't.

 

no black people being free is great??

In favor of slavery, jfc….

 

Yes, they didn't believe the arguments put forth that the state interest of racial harmony (via separation) was enough to overcome EP grounds, since a lot of the source of disharmony is from the state itself, criminalizing miscegenation.

I actually don't mind Thomas' reasoning here, since at least he's being consistent. I call him hacky a lot more for his pro-police anti-accused stance because he's just choosing "I like cops" over the constitution often. He had similar feelings in the "I like coaches" over students rights in the cussing cheerleader case. This is why I think Scalia was more faithful in his originalism than Thomas, because imo Scalia didn't care if it was a pro-conservative outcome as much. In that sense, I think Gorsuch is more of Scalia than Thomas. Alito is just a troll.

Personally, I'm all for methodically dismantling all-substantive due process rights, including parental rights, as long as gerrymandering is fixed first. If everyone truly has an equally proportional say in representative government, then I would love to live in a world that brings the power back to the people. But our power structure is askew, geared towards those who have access and means, and geared towards the extremes preventing legislating on substantive issues (the most recent gun legislation being the exception).

But back to the EP point from Loving, and before that Brown. It's arguable that SCOTUS would not have intervened in Brown and allowed for sweeping national legislation to do so if there was any chance of that on the horizon. It's kind of Congress' and the President's fault, because the historical record shows that SCOTUS didn't really want to do it. But like The President asked SCOTUS to do it. It was like everyone was an adult in the room of federal government (Congress, SCOTUS, the President), except for the southern representatives in Congress. The southerners were like mentally disabled children. We're in this world fight against Communism and we look like racist idiots because of idiot southern congressmen. And some of them were like, I'm not an idiot, but if I go along with the change needed, then I'll lose my job because I disproportionately represent racist idiots. Passing the buck to SCOTUS sometimes works, but if this is the start of passing the buck back to represenational government, then I don't mind it (again, if gerrymandering is fixed).

 

You can go **** yourself as far as I’m concerned Frenchy

 

there's a missing comma or two.

 

I didn't advocate anything, I tried to answer the question that you dismissively asked, although that answer was admittedly somewhat tangential to the original question.

If it was not important, why did you ask?

 

Do me a favor and go inslave yourself from here

 

Says the grammar police

 

You people are so triggered in this forum on this beautiful basketball website

 

I believe the word you are hoping to offend him with should be enslave.

I quoted you.
