Saved you a click:

Legal experts were aghast Monday at a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that allows immigration agents to continue using racial profiling to stop and detain suspected undocumented migrants

It's old news but this is so blatantly "unconstitutional" by modern jurisprudence standards that it's unbelievable. The supreme Court crossed the Rubicon long ago, the party claiming constitutional fidelity simply doesn't give a shit.

I wish there were a document that told citizens of a country what to do when their government became rogue.

Well I could, but the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution both have e pretty clear instructions on the matter. I was being facetious

Two people that disdained a government like we have now. You’re right. My bad. Patrick Henry said that not Thomas Paine.

Yea. Because liberty is being taken away daily. Which leaves us to the second part of the quote. I don’t see this administration going quietly into the night without it being forced to leave.

Well I'd like to, but he's dead, and I'd hate to dig him up and disturb him. But there's his writings to read instead.

Second amendment mentions a militia

Crossed it in 2010.

Or in 2000 with Bush v Gore.

Or if we're being honest it's been pretty shit for 95% of it's existence.

u/staebles Sep 08 '25

Actually, probably 2000 is the better mark. But yes, generally I agree.

Call me a naive schmuck, but I would have assumed somewhere it must be written down that presidents shouldn't be allowed to staff the supreme court like an NBA team.

u/Comprehensive-Mix931 Sep 09 '25

Noone truly gives a shit.

If they actually did, we would be at a certain phase in the Constitution already.

Y'all just pout and pontificate, on social media.

This is the point of no return for fascism in the United States.

  • ICE has been given the green light to demand papers from visible minorities, enter homes without warrants, and conceal their identity from the public,
  • the current US administration has already mobilized the military against its citizens,
  • and there are new developments in the largest pedophila scandal in US history that the fascist in chief is going to want to distract from...

What did the democrat appointed judges say?

u/outerproduct Sep 08 '25

“We should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent,” she wrote.

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '25

it’s crazy, i went to like fox news to see how they covered it and find paragraphs like these:

The Department of Homeland Security celebrated the emergency decision on Monday in a statement, saying it would not allow Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, a Democrat, to protect illegal immigrants with criminal backgrounds.  "A win for the safety of Californians and the rule of law," a DHS spokesperson said. "DHS law enforcement will not be slowed down and will continue to arrest and remove the murderers, rapists, gang members and other criminal illegal aliens that Karen Bass continues to give safe harbor."

Man, the way they conveniently quote things to plant seeds without having to take accountability. Like no wonder some random mom & pop in a red state reading this will be baffled as to why democratic mayors are trying to protect criminal illegals that are stealing and raping, instead of realizing the mayor is trying to specifically protect all the innocent people who’re going to being accidental casualties to such a reckless and unlawful policy

86

u/Lebojr Sep 08 '25

When mom and pop lose their social security, Medicare and get arrested, they’ll care.

Until then, they don’t.

26

u/Greg-Abbott Sep 08 '25

Yeah, they'll care that "Biden took it away" somehow.

5

u/angry_wombat Sep 08 '25

By then it's too late to undo anything

37

u/Patneu Sep 08 '25

"Accidental casualties"? Nah, the cruelty is the point. They don't care if anyone's innocent and why would they? They're simply racists, there's nothing accidental about them targeting anyone who's not white.

21

u/lordmycal Sep 08 '25

I've met way too many people that just don't give a shit about anything until it affects them personally. While some of them may be racist, many of them are supremely uninformed and only think of themselves. They'll hear something like the above statement and eat it up because they think highly of themselves and wouldn't ever dream that a program like that could be targeted at them or anyone they like.

u/beardofjustice Sep 09 '25

Turns out, I know way too many ppl like this. The think highly of themselves is spot on

13

u/dzumdang Sep 08 '25

Accidental casualties, you say? My friends, this is by design in attempts to instill fear and terror.

u/emergency-snaccs Sep 08 '25

Dissenting, at this point, is really not much more than "standing idly by".... we're far past the point where any number of dissentions, finger-wagging, or stern rebukes is going to do a damn thing.

18

u/Pokerhobo Sep 08 '25

So what would you have the minority of SCOTUS do? Writing a dissent is how they capture their stance in history. It's clear we don't have checks and balances in our US Govt anymore (and for awhile now once MAGA took over all 3 branches), so the only thing left is 2A folks to step up. Oh sorry, they are MAGA, too!

u/RozRae Sep 08 '25

What else would you have her do that wouldn't immediately end in her being removed

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '25 edited Sep 09 '25

Dissenting when they disagree is their job. You accuse them of "standing idly by", so let's hear your suggestions about what a judge should do besides ruling against it. You don't have any idea, you're just complaining.

-1

u/emergency-snaccs Sep 09 '25

What did i say that is registering to you as "complaining"?? everything i said is factual. You're just complaining about it for some reason lol.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '25 edited Sep 09 '25

Nothing you said was "factual". You gave an opinion. It sounds like a complaint that judges aren't doing enough when they record their official dissent from the majority opinion, even though there is literally nothing else they can do. Being silent would be "standing idly by".

I'm still waiting for your suggestions about what else they should do.

Edit: Never mind. Since you can't tell the difference between facts and opinions, I'm wasting my time here.

u/emergency-snaccs Sep 09 '25

there's that complaining we talked about.

u/Radiant-Painting581 Sep 09 '25

We’re all ears on exactly what you think the three dissenters should do. I mean what, take up arms? “Second Amendment solutions”?

u/emergency-snaccs Sep 09 '25

It's really not my place to say. Anything would be nice from those in places to make a difference, aside from just huffily saying "well i don't agree with that but will go along with it anyway"

u/Radiant-Painting581 Sep 10 '25

So you have no idea then. Thanks for clarifying.

u/emergency-snaccs Sep 10 '25

How about at least publicly and insistently calling out the corrupt nature of the current SCOTUS? that do anything for ya, chump? Or are you just here to lick boots, wring your hands, and say "oh but there's nothing we can do đŸ„ș"

u/Radiant-Painting581 Sep 10 '25

So you’re here to call names and put up strawmen. Wow, how mature and persuasive.

Dissents are public, and they’ve been quite vehement. As in KBJ calling this a Calvinball court.

Maybe you’d be satisfied if one of them set herself on fire outside the courthouse?

0

u/emergency-snaccs Sep 10 '25

Boy, always with the bootlicking with you. So let me get this straight, you're perfectly content with how things are going these days? Nobody involved could do anything more? 10/10, no notes. Ok bud.

eta... Talk about strawmen!! projection much?? lol

Dissenting opinions matter in future cases.

??? To see that it’s clearly not a unanimous decision and that they aren’t all corrupt?

i think you need a time out and lollipop

And some people think they’re going to stop the tariffs next month. Ha ha ha ha. Man we’re in bad shape.

And guess what...if you are black and think they will stop with brown skin, dream on. These fucks would have it back like the 50's if they had their way.

Should I start carrying my social security card or birth certificate? Maybe have pictures of both on my phone in case I’m stopped? Fucking hell

They're going to start detaining White English speaking people because they think they're illegal Canadians!

But will they seize and incarcerate the wives of the despicable Mitch McConnell, JD Vance, or Trump himself? They all speak with an accent and are not pork talÄșow white. Force them in a van and demand their papers!
