In reply to the discussion: So what will happened when Loving v. Virginia (1967, 388 U.S. 1) comes before SCOTUS? [View all]IngridsLittleAngel
(1,962 posts)39. Just guessing...
Even with Thomas on the court, I'm 75/25 Loving gets undone. I think Thomas' hate for other black people outweighs his love for Ginni. Really.
I don't think this one will happen for a while, though. Should SCOTUS actually carry this out and undo Roe, I imagine Griswold v Connecticut is the next one they'll have in their crosshairs. They can cause a lot more misery for the masses by revoking Griswold than Loving...
That said, some of the MAGA goons have made it clear they want Loving gone as well. But are we surprised? They want it ALL gone. Every damned piece of progress for everyone but the white man, erased.

You are so right. And, frankly, Black people have saved this nation again and again.

With gerrymandering and voter suppression, there are certainly states where it would happen.
