KJB is right. The 14th Amendment doesn’t prohibit race conscious legislation by Congress to ensure that the equal protection of the laws is afforded to those who are the victims of discrimination.
This has nothing to do with race conscious actions by anyone other than Congress, unless specifically authorized by Congress. All y’all talking about what private and public entities do in the absence of a federal law authorizing race conscious remedies need to pick a different case.
I was thinking about that as I listened to her. “Oh, but this doesn’t apply to anyone who wasn’t a slave, so fuck errybody.”
I will add that there is a perfect Constitutional remedy: Section 2 requires that they lose Congressional representation to the extent equality under the law is not afforded. So, fine, if you wanna argue that you have to have exact parity, then you get 4 members of Congress.
Freeman is also an old English surname, indicating someone who is a free peasant and not bound to any lord. The common Czech name Svoboda, "free", refers to someone who's not a serf. So your friend could have gotten his surname in other ways.
Negative stories are MAGA fuel, because they are hypocritical garbage. Gleeful pussy-grabbing didn’t cost Trump the White House. He could grab a pussy in the middle of 5th Avenue and not lose a single vote. We should stop being surprised that wingnuts never see the light when their candidate is proven to be a liar who pays for abortions and fathers all the illegitimate kiddos. Because in their rancid minds, no matter what their guy did, the democrat must have done much, much worse. And who are we to throw stones anyway? If GA elects Walker, they deserve him.
Really? I thought it was quite obvious it was sarcasm, and it seems to me there is quite a bit of "ironic racism" around here. I'll be better though, it is your playground.
Roberts was the one who said back in 2013 "The country is not racist anymore so these preclearance provisions where state governments have to check with us first before they pass racist election laws (or, to be precise, election laws w/a discriminatory effect antithetical to what the 14th Amendment intended) are not needed yay"
And then almost the identical minute it was passed, Cheating Kemp and his cheating legislature and every other racist combination of governor and legislator who had the Heritage Foundation to tell them what to do RAN out and passed the provisions with the most discriminatory intentions they possibly could.
So from that day Roberts has had very little credibility with anyone who believes in equal rights under law anymore
The f**king VRA was neutral on race??? I'd opt for a stronger adjective than "disingenuous" to describe that load of crap. These f**king guys...
That's disgusting. Flagged.
i think this is an area where roberts is leading.

You know what the difference between "ironic racism" and "racism" is?
They can both be found on alt-right sites and not here, knock it off and review the rules.

Therein lies the rub.

This is a well-known field of study in political science. See, for instance, the very nerdy article at https://www.technologyrevie... .
Sorry I offended you. I thought it was an obvious dig at right wing racism.

It takes Elie Mystal to talk about Scalia and his sneaky "legislating by judicial omission" the way it needs to be talked about
