lovely legacy of the Supreme Court: Dred Scott.. Roe v Wade

[rexlunae]

I see you your Dredd Scott decision, and raise you a Brown v. Board of Education, and a Loving v. Virginia.

Everyone hates the Supreme Court when it rules against what they want. I certainly felt that way when the Court substituted its own judgement for Congress's in tossing out part of the Voting Rights Act. Today is your day to feel that way, or, in the wake of the Obergefell decision, which I've been telling people was basically inevitable for years, your rest-or-eternity.

Everyone hates the Supreme Court when it [opines] against what they want.

Which is of exactly zero relevance. The issue is whether a court opinion is right or wrong, not whether people like it.

Clearly the Court is right. Just ask them.

Nope. Historically as well.

That depends. I think he's hungry. He was talking about applesauce, last we heard from him.
