The official thread of SCOTUS cementing the US as a theocractic fascist state.

Showing child porn and printing out an anti abortion pamphlet are not the same thing, and an excellent question dodge from you.

What you should have asked, "If you owned a print shop and some pedos wanted to print up some kiddie porn pictures, would you do it despite your personal convictions on the matter?"

I would print anything that is legal to print without care about my personal convictions. Similarly, I’d sell the cake to anybody for any event. My standard is pretty simple.

To follow up here: HLR will publish these notes from current law students and recent grads anonymously. Because HLR isn’t a tight ship the author has been leaked and he is a clerk for the Reagan appointed Judge Smith on the 5th circuit court of appeals. So in probably less than 20 years this dipshit who argues against free and fair elections, despite the nearly 150 unbroken years of somewhat free elections to determine the president, will probably be a federal judge. This was his anti democratic batsignal to the Republican legal establishment.

The decision was written by Thomas so you know it's probably some really freaky shit in there.

I read most of that Harvard note referenced above, and more than anything it cemented my feelings that the constitution needs a serious overhaul and that anyone seeking to follow any kind of original textual argument should be immediately dismissed.

 

This line in particular sums up why:

This Note concludes that, though a hands-off approach carries risks for democracy, it is nonetheless required as a matter of textual fidelity.

 

OH! So we should risk democracy itself in order to better follow (what we think the) text of this old document intended.

 

Just insanity.

fake news, all they had to do to not get cancelled was not do whatever they did that deserved the death penalty

The constitution, read simply at face value, is not a good document for establishing the rules of governance in a modern nation. It is only remotely workable due to more than a century of jurisprudence that has re-wrote a ton of it.

Also conservatives largely reject the application of the 14th and 15th amendments in letter and in spirit. It’s a decent statement of rights but there are many who want to ignore developments since 1861

Area Man Passionate Defender Of What He Imagines Constitution To Be

WWW.THEONION.COM

ESCONDIDO, CA—Spurred by an administration he believes to be guilty of numerous transgressions, self-described American patriot Kyle Mortensen, 47, is a vehement defender of ideas he seems to think are enshrined in the U.S. Constitution and principles that brave men have fought and died for solely in his head.

 

Still a classic.

What an absolute embarrassment. 
 

and the wholly made up Purcell principle is such a joke in this application, same as the Alabama decision.

The groundwork is very, very obviously being laid to let state legislatures directly overturn the vote in 2024. Seems like it depends on what ACB does between now and then.

A lawmaker in Missouri has already been working this winter to get her state to pass legislation that purports to make it illegal for people from Missouri to go anywhere — Missouri, Illinois, New York, anywhere — to get an abortion. Legislation across the country restricting people’s ability to obtain abortions and obtain transgender-related healthcare, among many other topics, could be headed through a legal system with an increasingly reactionary Supreme Court setting legal rules for the nation.

Republican Missouri State Rep. Mary Elizabeth Coleman has been introducing an amendment into the state’s House bills that would ban abortions in Missouri and bar people from providing abortions to Missouri citizens or residents or even helping them get abortions out of state, as first reported earlier this week by the Washington Post. The enforcement of this proposed ban, like Texas’ S.B. 8, would be through private lawsuits. The amendment serves as perhaps the starkest example yet of the changes the new Supreme Court majority has unleashed.

Although Coleman’s provision would seem to violate a lot of key constitutional principles — including the right to travel, federalism principles and traditional rules that states respect the laws of other states — a trio of law professors examining what the legal landscape would look like should the Supreme Court overturn Roe by June have concluded it’s entirely possible that such restrictions could be upheld by a majority of the current justices.

I mean...that can't be legal. A state has no power to dictate what can be done in another state. Can states charge you for crimes committed in a place outside that state where the actions are legal?

 

Edit - obviously the end-game here is to pass unconstitutional laws and then have SCOTUS baldly along partisan lines say they are constitutional.

Pretty sure the Missouri bill also bans terminating ectopic pregnancy, so if there’s any lingering doubt about whether or not these people are “pro-life” that should be the end of it.

It does this explicitly! These idiots and freaks want to kill women and think you can just move the fetal cells from the Fallopian tube. Nope! You just kill the mother and the fetus!

Justice Thomas slams cancel culture, 'packing' Supreme Court | AP News

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas said he's concerned efforts to politicize the court or add additional justices may erode the institution's credibility, speaking Friday in Utah at an event hosted by former Republican U.S.

 

Quote

“I’m afraid, particularly in this world of cancel culture attack, I don’t know where you’re going to learn to engage as we did when I grew up,” he said. “If you don’t learn at that level in high school, in grammar school, in your neighborhood, or in civic organizations, then how do you have it when you’re making decisions in government, in the legislature, or in the courts?”

 

There's a lot that really clicks into place about why the world is the way it is once you figure out that the most elite-educated, impeccably credentialed conservatives, are still all at the their core exactly the same as any other Fox News brain-poisoned grandpa.
