A suggestion for further over turning Constitutional Rights

I think the biggest problem the S.C.has the power to solve is inter-racial marriage.

No black shall be allowed to marry a person of the superior white race.

I mean, as long as they're on this mission to the Republican's current "the cruelty is the point" doctrine, it should be the law of the land that mixed races marriages no longer exist and the state will rule such marriages never existed in the first place.

Clarence and Ginny will be so happy with this 55 gallon drum of worms they opened up.

And all the formerly married mixed race couples will be forbidden to contact each other in any way what so ever,

FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES

If you're going to be regressive, why not go for it whole hog?

We are being challenged to live up to the ideals we have insisted made our nation "exceptional".

ARE we "a nation of laws, not men"?

ARE "no men above the law" in our nation?

If these are not just meaningless high-sounding "fluff", why are we even questioning whether or not the law will punish Trump for his despicable crimes?


Not my words. this was originally posted by Atticus. it was locked in the OP and the moderator suggested reposting in GD, so I just did that here.

It's an important point, as I think all that made our formerly great country "exceptional" is in our distant past.

Frank Zappa's role in the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989

Frank could have been the best President America ever had. Most of my values as a person were created with the help of what Frank had to say about things since Freak Out was released in 1966. He's been my hero and inspiration for the last 51 years.

Question about Biden's power to rein in gas price gouging

This is a c&p from a good friend from my late 70's college days:


Ohh Jim.. don't you recall "On Aug. 15, 1971, in a nationally televised address, Nixon announced, “I am today ordering a freeze on all prices and wages throughout the United States.” It was Executive Order 11615 (pursuant to the Economic Stabilization Act of 1970), imposing a 90-day freeze on wages and prices in order to counter inflation. This was the first time the U.S. government had enacted wage and price controls since World War II. That was a dramatic action then, why not now?


So, I guess my question is: Can President Biden lower the cost of gas simply by issuing an E.O.?

Thanks, DU mates. When it comes to questions like this, you guy blow the doors off google.

my latest bust from the social media ministry of truth

Or, as my lifelong hero with Frank Zappa would put it: "My favorite confrontation with authority"

I posted this on my FB wall and got a 30 day suspension. Question; who are the judges that determine why this violated community standards? My sole measure is whether this statement is accurate and it's 100% accurate. I demand to confront my accusers!

(Not really, but I wish I could send my potential posts to the FB Ministry of Truth to check if my post would get me busted again. Self censorship and it's time to watch what I post on FB. (Thanks to Ari Fleischer circa 2003-2004.)




When a right-winger says, "Tucker Carlson has a huge audience," I reply, "So did Joseph Goebbels."





Which leads me to wonder if FB can bust me for DU comments about FB? Which seems plausible because FB, google and youtube seem to be run by the same entity? Kinda like anti-trust laws have gone the way of progressive taxation?
