If two historian professional societies say their history is cherry-picked and highly biased at best, that would be a strong indication.

IIRC, Thomas’s concurrence, which is not legally “binding”, was the opinion which discounted privacy as a right. The majority doesn’t quite go that far.

Oh, then his vote didn’t count?

He concurred with the result, but the bastard thought they should be even more draconian.

Just saying that a concurrence with the opinion that rights should be even more restrictive still counts towards the majority and can be used by lower courts to do just that.

In the fifth circuit, maybe. In other circuits, probably not.

Unless Thomas has five votes for his position. Alito pinky sweared that he did not.

And to ensure that our decision is not misunderstood or mischaracterized, we emphasize that our decision concerns the constitutional right to abortion and no other right. Nothing in this opinion should be understood to cast doubt on precedents that do not concern abortion.

He could be lying.

I guess that they could further claim that miscarriages and birth control are sufficiently related to abortion, before going in for the kill and eviscerating privacy rights all together.

they’ve already put one gay rights case on their docket, and since they’ve proven willing to go far beyond the bounds of their cases to make their pronouncements: they’ll likely take another bite from privacy to support conservative christian hatred yet again

expect big swings at people’s rights till it’s all knocked down

There’s a poster out there suggesting that Kavanaugh go out of state for his meals and blaming him for allowing himself to be hungry. :laughing:

Perhaps his decisions will be by the the “three-fifth’s” circuit.
History lesson, folks. Look it up.

The Eighth circuit is absolutely stacked with Republican appointees; the First is 100 % democratic appointees. But the fifth has a certain reputation…

Well, certain justices on the Supreme Court did just decide that there’s no right to privacy, so…

Justice Kavanaugh’s enjoyment of dinner was disrupted by protestors at a restaurant, leading him to skip dessert and depart through the back door. Sadly for him, an originalist interpretation of the Constitution reveals no right to parfait at Morton’s Steakhouse either.

You know the word “dinner” doesn’t even appear in the constitution! (Nor “restaurant”!)

I think it’s totally in line with his ruling and his feelings towards women to stand outside his house and demand to know what is going on in the uteruses of his wife and 2 daughters.

There are a few good ones going around:

Also just saw that people are making tons of fake reservations at Morton’s now, to mess with them.
That was a ridiculous and totally foreseeable PR blunder on their part!

All good points you (and others) made; I was meaning more the far right trollies that are now running around saying “there is no right to privacy”. We’ll see if they apply this equally.

J/k, and LOOooool. I know they will not.
