I think I just threw up in my mouth a little


In another blatant attempt to disregard the Constitution, precedent and everything holy, the John Roberts-led Supreme Court has set this country back 50 years again today. In a ruling to be released today, the Court found that a district cannot voluntarily engage in a program of desegregation.

I'm not even making this up. I'm not sure I could. I'm not that creative.

I can't WAIT for this opinion to come out.

I feel like I shouldn't be shocked, but I still am. No matter how bad things get, I always want to believe there's more hope than despair. Then something like this comes around.

Why don't we just bring Jim Crow Laws back because we don't want any "special" treatment for people of color? Why don't we just repeal the nineteenth amendment? Better yet, how about going against forty years of precedent to determine that the Voting Rights Act got it wrong?

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills here.

If Ruth Bader Ginsburg has to read from the bench anymore she's going to set up a tent over there so she doesn't have to commute back and forth from the office. I mean, why walk back to chambers when you'll just have to read your entire dissent from the bench again.

A whole bag of scissors is necessary to cut the games up in that Court today.
