If that argument wins, wouldn't it also extend to increases in property taxes due to higher valuations?

That entire case isn't based on any laws 

why was it even allowed to get this far ?

Dude it's been Calvinball for a fuckin while now. The supreme Court is bought and paid for by special interests and our nation is under the thrall of a new generation of oligarchs.

"...complications of advanced dementia." 

That's tough for anyone, but especially someone who was a great legal mind.  Fair skies and following tailwinds.

I would have taken her decisions even in the grips of advanced dementia over this court.

Lulz. Go listen to the On Media podcast episodes We Don’t Talk About Leo. 
 

You will soon realize, like I do now, how completely and absolutely fucked we are when it comes to the judiciary. There’s no coming back. The Right has a 1000 mile lead and they are now working on every other aspect of our society.

 

The time for this was 30 years ago. It’s over. We lost.

Sorry.  A Panel of three judges hears the original case.   If you lose you can request a rehearing (meaning that only the panel of three judges that issued the original decision reconsiders the case) - or you can request a Rehearing en banc, meaning that the full court of the Circuit (an “en banc panel”) reconsiders the case.

On very important issues that are a departure from established law it is preferable to have the entire circuit look at the decision, so that two or three people can’t markedly change the law for the whole circuit.  Remember, different circuit courts can have diametrically opposed decisions. In other words, you can have a case that will win in one circuit and lose in another circuit. When there is a circuit split, the Supreme Court has to resolve it.  Sometimes that can take decades to tee that issue up and resolve that split. 

You do not have a right to an en banc hearing, and just like a writ of cert to the Supreme Court, the court has to agree to hear a matter en banc.   You have no “right” to it.  It is rarely granted.

How is this not a civil rights issue and why are we leaving it up to the states?  They were for heterosexual marriage but now want to leave it up to the states if it's a union between the races?  This should get more traction nationally.  Do they understand what century this is? The reason it's not left to the states is that this is a nation that protects the freedoms of its citizens equally, something the states had a civil war over and dig this, the south lost.  Again, how is handing civil rights back to states not moving backwards?  As long as the union is between adults, who gives a shit what their sex or ethnicity is?  Where are all the slippery slope dipshits?  Also, civil laws are and should be homogenous--it's a nation undivided, and aren't we all Americans first?

They 100% want this. Remember “states rights!” as a rallying cry for the civil war? They never gave that up. They absolutely, with no hesitation or hiding it, want individual states to be able to discriminate however they want. They can invalidate my (interracial, according to the bigots of Juan Crow) marriage. Fuck, if you think that slavery isn’t back on the table, think again.

This is it. This is the end game. Control of the many by a self-selected few.

The cult of Guns & Jesus is the same cult that owned slaves and succeeded. They never went away. They generally still live in the South and some rural areas, and are working towards regaining power. All non white males are going to go through some things (see abortion rules)

When you say "succeeded", do you mean "seceded"?  Or this like a participation statue kinda thing?  

While a child of two racially different parents (Hispanic & Swabian), I almost invite this kinda bullshit for just 30 days because you could mandate a DNA test and so many white people's heads would explode when they find out they have like 6.25% African blood or 12.5% Latino blood.  So many fucking worthless Texans so proud of their European heritage until it comes time to read and vote like one, then suddenly "Damn Euro Socialists!"  

I know it's racially charged to say this, but you gotta admit for all their flaws---Europeans did some cool shit back in the days of enlightenment.  Then American 'white/evangelicals' saw that and thought, "Nah, let's strip away the intellectual part and just do the guns, Jesus, and oppression thing!"

The Union was far too forgiving after the Civil War. There should have been public trials and executions for those traitors. Now we have to deal with the repercussions of that mistake

I took a "Reconstruction History" course at a Baptist University in Florida once from a famed historian who was very obnoxiously pro-Confederacy.  I had lived for a hot minute in San Antonio (9-10 months or so), but never really heard anything about Southern Pride.  But moved to Florida and holy shit, that was all I could do to avoid non-stop, incessant "Not Hate, Heritage!" messaging.  Like most Americans, I had visited Florida and thought it was kinda trashy but it had EPCOT, South Beach, and the Keys.  Turns out it's 95% shit.  Almost to a person their defense of the South is much like many other redneck bastions, "States Rights", "Northern Aggression", etc., etc.  And then this class gets from Antebellum to Reconstruction.  And their position is largely, "Union made mistakes and missteps, but the South emerged stronger and more cohesive because brothers couldn't punish brothers."  

It was like 9 fucking guys that fought for the Union that had a brother in the Confederate Army.  This myth that somehow we absolved the South of their sins because we were all related is bullshit.  It was a Civil War, not a Family/House War.  Quit romanticizing it.  Even in Texas, some of y'all can't shut the fuck about the glory of the South and how they outmanned and outgunned but giving up never was an option.  The fighting spirit of the South?  Yeah, okay.  Keep jerking off to that bullshit narrative.   

If they were conscripted or drafted or acting in self-defense?  Give 'em a pass and allow them to rebuild their community themselves without slave labor.  But if they volunteered or enlisted or raised insurrection, or were already in uniform for the South.  Fuck 'em.  Put 'em in prison camps and watch them expire.  

This country made that mistake once, please don't let it happen again.  But oh yeah, i forgot...musta been that 2nd amendment that saved the south from a more violent Reconstruction.  This time around, they'll use it again on us, right?  Ha.  Bullshit.  We needed the land and the natural resources.  This time around, I bet dollars to donuts we'll manage just fine without the human garbage.

Who do interracial people marry? Are we all gonna have to submit our 23andMe DNA results to verify we stay in our racial lane?

I've posted it before, and could dig it up again, but there are a handful (3-4) of Supreme Court cases that piggyback off of each other that concern:

  • Interracial marriage
  • Homosexual relationships/sex
  • Birth control
  • Abortion

Abortion was the first pin to fall, and Clarence Thomas has talked about the others could quickly follow suit with a chain reaction.

It's fucking nuts, but that's who today's GOP is.

They want it to be 1950.  Poor Clarence doesn't see the irony of this for whatever fool reason.  Like any other out group fellow traveller, he thinks he's going to get a pat on the back rather than a kick out the door once his usefulness is done. 

I'll never understand the right's desire to return to an idyllic past that only ever existed in their minds.  Those who don't study history...

I'm clearly no ConLaw scholar -- let's face it, I'm not a scholar at all -- but this seems a non-starter as race is a protected class.  Sure, it will take all kinds of legal machinations to unwind, and it's possible that the concept of race-based civil rights will be undone, but that seems a stretch.

Talk about galvanizing the vote.  40% of Americans aren't white.  A large chunk of those white Americans (like myself) would be vehemently against this kind of move.  I just don't see it working.
