Topic: So, the Supreme Court is going to give Miranda to the states

Anonymous A started this discussion 4 years ago #104,807

That means some some states could (and will) stop making the police have to read you your rights upon arrest. Who can possibly think this is a good idea? Evern Trump's fascist, frat boy justice appointments -- what the hell could their motivation possibly be?

What is their motivation? fucking "states' rights" is what allowed slavry, segregation, and a host of other evils. The US is becoming very right-wing, very dangerous stuff.

Why not listen to the experts? The Supreme Court are the experts on the constitution.

To the contrary, they are appointed by presidents and Congress, and all that is required is nothing.

The Democrats and Republicans are the same party. They don't give a fuck about you or anyone below a certain dollar amount. The sooner the lower classes wake up and realize this the sooner we could have actual progress.

seems to me differing rights with regards to interaction with law enforcement based upon where one lives doesn't sound like a country that wants to be a country very much

Do you think you know more about good governance than the people who wrote the constitution?

Maybe in 1776, but that is long gone. It is a country now.

They were very wise for white slave owners in 1776 when the vast majority of countrymen were rural farmers. I am just saying that times have changed.
