Dred Scott would never have been overturned
Just to be clear, Dred Scott decision was not overturned by SCOTUS.
Emancipation and 13th, 14th and 15th Constitutional Amendments nullified the decision.

False. You don't trust him because you were told not to and you're easily led.

You know damn well that our leaders and media have lay people totally focused on the emotional type topics like race, gender, religion, and abortion.
They could give two shits about an expansion that allows the feds to pretty much regulate any fricking thing that they want to regulate.

To our constitutionalists: how much power would the feds lose if the commerce clause is severely weakened?
Get rid of incorporation under the 14th also, and we would be 95-98% of the way back to where we should be.

Moreover, the Louisiana Civil Code recognizes no such concept, it’s all about the judge’s interpretation of the law and Constitution and that’s how it should be “judgment.”

Certainly less backward than your stare decisis nonsense despite federal courts overrule their precedents all the time, can totally understand why you’d disparage Louisiana’s system, people normally do that regarding superior approaches

Doesn't a large majority of the world have a civil law system?

Lol, that is hilarious. He's done more in one week than you will ever accomplish in your pathetic life.

Plessy v. Ferguson is a better example.

Justice Thomas is a legal hero of mine
I've watched him speak on Cspan shows at least 5 times. His oratorical style is very conversational and concise. He's great with Q and A afterwards.

I'm not convinced Thomas was hinting about Roe; gotta believe it's something else.
Hopefully, he is hinting at every ruling that was decided through the doctrine of the penumbra.
The whole legal idea of interpreting a right or restriction based on other enumerated rights/restrictions even if they are similar actually violates the 9th and 10th amendments

One of the great constitutionalist arguments of all-time authored by my legal spirit animal Justice Hugo Black with the Griswold dissent, goes straight up textualist/strict constructionist on their asses his argument didn’t win the day that day but influenced a generation of committed Federalists like yours truly.

Here Here!!!
Exactly correct.
Hugo Black was in many ways an enigma.
A Staunch Racist Ultra Progressive New Deal Democrat who argued for Judicial restraint and upholding the Constitution as written.

STARE decicis is just an excuse not to make tough decisions. The civil law does not acknowledge such a concept, and neither do I.
