The Supreme Court of the United States Thread

[clarksvol00]

Hopefully it will lead to more states taking back authority ceded to the federal government over the decades.

No. Republicans will soon start to push for a federal abortion ban and ignore their own affinity for states' rights. It's more about keeping a wedge issue going than ideals.

My mom's father went to prison for raping her, her two sisters, and several cousins. Pretty sure most rapes are from family members. 1 out of 3 is what I read.

1 out of 3 isn't "most."

..... and when jack-ass Biden's address to the nation is over .... he turns & walks off stage like a dictator in robot fashion w/no questions allowed. What a wuss.

It's the last bullet point on his instruction card.

 

[PEPPERJAX]

We have multiple board members that believe Biden's cognitive skills are totally fine.

Who dat?

I hate to agree with you on things (feels dirty) but I'm afraid you're right on this.

I wish I could troll him by removing that and see what happens

 

[VOLS INC.]

Wouldn't it be bigger news if Biden was caught telling the truth?

Did HE remember to take HIS seat?

Fed legislaton was just ruled illegal

 

[clarksvol00]

because cancer surgery wasn't illegal in TN. what's been floated is the idea of preventing a state citizen from going elsewhere to do something illegal in said state. won't hold up but doesn't mean that it hasn't already been considered.

I think you're assuming too much when you say it won't hold up. The conservative justices are no less motivated by partisan ideology than the liberal ones.

If any republicans had any foresight, they'd realize they just opened the doors to lose midterms and state elections.

Welcome to the dark side.

Would be funny. Watching him just wander aimlessly around the podium and riser, waiting on someone to take him to get a cookie and some ice cream.

Break out the pink hats. Just remember you are now supposed to call it a "birthing people" march and not a "women's" march. Hopefully they hand out soap, deodorant, toothpaste and some hair brushes this time around................

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

It would certainly be extremely rare. Like proof of Bigfoot or the Loch Ness Monster.

I had a picture once of Bigfoot riding on the back of ole Nessie.

Not if they just take the win and leave it up to the states. If they can break the pattern of self inflicted wounds (doubt they can) then this ruling will not hurt them in the least.

Uh, huh. Tell us more.

 

[Weezer]

Had to with right to privacy which while not expressed in that term exactly, exists in for example the right to be secure in your person or home. Thomas .... I don't know what to say. He's out there. On the extreme of the extreme. What he's talking about overruling is indescribable in its breadth.

Right to privacy was the argument used for the Roe V. Wade decision, right? I've always been of the opinion the 10th Amendment should take precedence and it should be a state issue, not a federal one. That does not mean I think states should be outlawing abortion. If a state makes an unpopular decision, it is up to the constituents of that state to vote for new government that will enact their wishes.

 

[utvolpj]

And several who should be jealous of them based on their posts

 

[Orangeburst]

This weekend is going to be interesting

It will hurt them at every level.

No it won't.

 

[85SugarVol]

Now watch the radicals allow up to birth procedures
disguting

Now hold on here. Seriously.

Should “the radicals” in Oregon be allowed to let the people of their State decide Oregon Law?

This is what State’s Rights is all about.

If you are Ok with Mississippi deciding what’s right for Mississippi, but not Ok with Oregon deciding what’s right for Oregon - are you saying you want the Federal Government to decide?

 

[bamawriter]

Right. But there are so many Republicans who are dumb enough to try. They aren't capable of simply taking the win.

 

[GroverCleveland]

You know there is a large portion of women who are happy about this decision? My wife is ecstatic about it.

Having said that, I agree with a number of posters. The Republicans have everything going their way and they are bound to screw it up. It's like they cannot help themselves.
