No Brian. You seem to be hung up on the idea that the VRA is substantially changed or has no teeth, balls or gasoline. Everything in the VRA that was illegal yesterday is still illegal.
Jesus isn't coming tomorrow and neither is Jim Crow.
Yea, and we never had a a majority of our congress KKK members, that must have been a figment of my......oops, nope that was true.
I am sorry, but our right wingers ARE attempting to turn back the clock and for you to say "that's impossible" is utter and outright bull fucking shit. Considering they have thrown the car in reverse full speed since Obama's election.
The only saving grace in this is that the youth of our society are much wiser and more pluralistic in mindset then these right wing thugs who have held progress hostage.
Ginsburg is absolutely right this is "demolition" and again, what you are trying to claim is that "the building is still in tact" failing to see long term even if this congress saves it for now, the main pillars which have upheld that building have been severely damaged by today's decision.
Jim Crow is a possibility again, those who fail to remember history are doomed to repeat it.
Seriously, do you think this same court, if the issue was women's right to vote, which at one time was not a right women had, do you think this same court is willing to reverse the voting rights of women?
The voter ID laws made today are intended to directly affect liberal voters like college students, hispanics and minorities and the poor more likely to vote liberal, and no different than the poll tax laws and literacy crap thrown at blacks back then.
