Ketanji Should Be Disqualified

[Rigby5]

Bullshit......there was and is no law banning homosexuals from pursuing happiness.

That is not true.
Before the 1950s, homosexuals risked getting lynched.
Gays were routinely arrested until the Stonewall Riots of 1969.

{...
The history of violence against LGBT people in the United States is made up of assaults on gay men, lesbians, bisexual, and transgender individuals (LGBT), legal responses to such violence, and hate crime statistics in the United States of America.[1] Those targeted by such violence are believed to violate heteronormative rules and contravene perceived protocols of gender and sexual roles. People who are perceived to be LGBT may also be targeted. Violence can also occur between couples who are of the same sex, statistics showing that violence among same-sex couples is more common than among than couples of the opposite sex.[2]

The violence that has occurred over the existence of the LGBT community has been more extensive considering how long the incidents have occurred. Since the 1969 Stonewall riots against one of the many police raids on gay bars, there have been many more reports and instances of violence against LGBT people in the United States.

Gays and transsexuals are a tiny speck ,a mote, a bug, a tiny minority, (5%?) AND they are not being persecuted! No death camps, no laws harming them. WHY, WHY this HUGE goddamn focus on them? Meanwhile back at the ranch: define Black, Ketanji.

 

[Rigby5]

What the hell does that even mean?

It means that people who were 1% Black could still be sold into slavery because the definition of who was Black was forced upon people against their will.
Similarly, those who did not appear to fit the 2 traditional sexual stereotypes, were arrested or killed.

They are being denied the right to "the pursuit of happiness" that everybody else enjoys.

Sure you can ESTABLISH gender, but you would NOT want the judge to instead use their own preconceptions.
You listen to testimony.

Gender isn’t determined by judges. It’s not subjective, it’s biological.
This is all about destroying the culture.
You’re a Marxist dupe.

 

[otto105]

Plenty of God Haters like you have tried to disprove The Bible. They end up becoming believers.

Did you know they just found Joshua’s Altar?
God wants to move all men towards Him as He is their father. Why would anyone be so foolish as to reject an eternity of happiness?

Only fools and those who are deceived would reject hope, and the wonderful promises of God.

You seemed like you are confused? Did Satan tell you that you cannot tell a man from a woman, that neither he nor God exists?

Satan is the author of confusion. Stop listening to him.

I don't hate the myth of your god.

BTW they found a BBQ pit they claim is Joshua's.

What was the law that allowed lynching?

The size of the group being abused does not matter at all.

However, I tend to agree they may not be currently abused.

But as far as "defining Black", again, that is not possible.
There are too many conflicting standards.

This is why one should not ever vote for Democrats, they're the ones that came up with this shit.

Mocking God and calling him a myth is hatred.

Researchers Say They’ve Deciphered an Ancient Tablet Found on Biblical Mountain

Experts from the Associates for Biblical Research (ABR) say they have deciphered an ancient curse from a lead tablet found during excavations on Mt. Ebal, the site believed to be where Joshua built an altar to the Lord.

[Leo123]

Wrong.
Until very recently, and in some states still may not, gay spouses could not get in on employee health insurance, family plans.
That is a huge expense and imposition, that is very discriminatory.

Seems your beef is with insurance companies.

 

[Leo123]

Murder was wrong before there were any religions.

Tell that to the Aztecs....
According to Aztec beliefs, Huitzilopochtli required regular nourishment (tlaxcaltiliztli) in the form of freshly harvested human hearts. As so-called “people of the sun,” the Aztecs were uniquely mandated to provide their patron deity with this bloody sustenance—more often than not sourced from people who were not “of the sun,” so to speak. It was a kind of cultural exceptionalism that not only lent the Aztecs an inherent, ethnic superiority, but directly victimized their neighbors, specifically the Tlaxcala people, who provided the lion’s share of sacrifice-able bodies for Aztec sun-god worship.

Aztec human sacrifice was a bloody, fascinating mess

It wasn't just conquest and disease that toppled this empire.

Not very convincing on either of your points.

What was the law that allowed lynching?

Not sure there was ever a law to allow lynching, but lynching was common all the same.
To put it into perspective, the greatest computer science genius of all time was Alan Turing.
And he was sentenced to chemical castration for his homosexuality in 1954.
He committed suicide due to the harm done to him.

I will not accept this level of ambivalence. I will never apologize for that. Never.

You have that backwards.
The MesoAmericans knew that murder was wrong before any religion, but then the religion created by the Aztecs was what caused the Aztecs to commit murder anyway.

All white juries.

Depends on who you are dealing with and what the point is.
If you talk to a geneticist, then they will tell you that races do not really exist.
They are not sufficiently differentiated to be considered real.
If you are talking to someone over pure esthetics, then you can differentiate all you want.
