US Authoritarianism

I'll do you one better! The interracial marriage ruling should be left to the individual!

It's interesting how the only "states' rights" conservatives care about are the ones involving denying rights to the people.

Everybody who votes for them knows exactly what they stand for. They vote for them because of the fascism, not despite it.

"Braun" is the color of his Nazi uniform.

If Republicans win too many election, everything up to and including the second coming of slavery is on the table. That is not hyperbole.

You wanna know the worst part? In the Senate race that got him elected this time, he was CLEARLY the best Republican candidate. Imagine if Todd Fucking Rokita had won. Actually, it is almost as bad having him as state AG.

Indiana never misses a chance to be a national embarrassment

This motherfucker is going to be my state’s governor next year, barring anything unprecedented.

He’s likely to be governor, unfortunately

Authoritarian hierarchy doesn’t preserve itself.

Too late! We already have kids. And oh by the way screw you evil shameless republican person! Such awful people just make me feel so weird inside. Like how can there be idiots like that in the world,?

JFC 😬

who's gonna tell Vance?

Only 2 years late on that article

This is absolutely where they are going with this. In case nobody knows, this is the line of cases That decided issues of interracial sex in marriage, sodomy, pornography, abortion, and eventually the right to homosexual marriage.

Obviously, although it need not be said in the document itself because it's so fucking obvious, it's inconceivable to any rational person that a constitution which restricts the state from warrantless searches and seizures and be secure in our papers and affects, forbids quartering troops in our homes, protects our right to say what we think, and somehow it is allowed to make your family planning and sexual intimacy decisions. The Supreme Court decided all these things based on this concept, which is called Penumbral Reasoning, for those rights that arise not from the Constitution itself, but which is protected as falling within its penumbra.

And guess what, there are conservative judges that are already clamoring that the Fourth Amendment only protects your property, meaning that if you rent your home or have a mortgage on it, or a lease on your automobile, you don't have Fourth Amendment rights. They're coming for them all.

How did interracial marriage come to the supreme court anyway? States made laws against it?

After reading the article, it seems like he's a moron for answering a question that he didn't understand. It reads like he didn't know what subject Loving referred to. Maybe I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt because I'm in an interracial marriage and don't want to believe that we are at a point where representatives actually think they can advocate getting rid of federal protection for interracial marriage but I don't actually believe that this idiot knew what question he was answering.
