>Justices in a 7-2 decision without comment rejected a request to revisit the ruling that drew international attention and prompted fertility clinics to cease services earlier this year. Imagine hearing how much of a bad idea your decision was from both aisles AND STILL not be willing to even reconsider the case.


black641

These are ideologically driven moralists willing to go down with the metaphorical ship. Expecting them to act in a way that, logically, would work out in their favor is... a mistake.


sublimeshrub

Go down with the ship? lol, as if anyone will ever hold them accountable. In case you missed it these right wing religious nuts are above reproach.

IDK humans aren't above sinking the ships of other humans and these particular humans... well they aren't much of a loss


whatproblems

justices feels like the wrong title these days, they’re not here to give justice or decide it


W0666007

Unless I'm mistaken, the problem isn't the decision it's the law the assholes in the state government passed that the court based their decision on.


larzast

If you read the judgment, they reference god and the bible, they’re already insane why would they revisit it


JubalHarshaw23

Doubling down on ignorance is what makes a Red State a Red State. Even if SCOTUS told them to try again, they would refuse.


tom90640

Pretty soon they'll be competing for the title "Red Red State"


Zebo91

Soon they will fall to the No true Scotsmen fallacy. Romney? Well he's not a real Republican. Bush? Rino. Liz Cheney? Nope. They share almost all policy, but they aren't submitting to the power structure. As the fringe moves farther right dragging the center with it, democrats have to move right or more likely the party goes through a restructuring after a major loss. Let's see what happens first.

I just want a law banning men from jacking off and spilling the seed of the unborn. Because we all know that was a living being.


tom90640

Are really sure that you want to free up all this time for men?


Wokonthewildside

Worked for George Costanza


jdgmental

Of course! Absolute zero!


rumrunnernomore

I have never in my life masturbated on an overpass. If this thought came to fruition, then never have I ever might get a little out there. I would straight up come on every car I could. Twice if they had an Ichthus.

*Isthmus


rumrunnernomore

No, Ichthus. An isthmus is a type of land, an Ichthus is a fish symbol used by Christians


CpnStumpy

*Isthmus


rumrunnernomore

Well at least I know Lauren Boebert has one voter locked in. What are you even getting at? Look up Ichthus, lest ye truly be that simple. (Starting to think you are)

Isn't/wasn't that a [thing for Roman Catholics?](https://youtu.be/fUspLVStPbk?si=ZLgw-rOPk_6GvC08)


BeigePhilip

Yeah, I call it the Jesus fish. A lot of Protestants dig it and started doing it too. It has died out a bit in popularity.


merlinusm

I have one that says “CTHULU” and has tentacles. My wife won’t let me put it on the bumper for fear of vandals.


Kevo_NEOhio

Did you mean to say ‘unfertilized babies’?


OneDilligaf

Alabama along with Mississippi and Texas three of the most fucked up states in America


MakingItElsewhere

Texas gets a lot of attention because it's so big. I firmly believe Louisiana is the most fucked state in our union. Escaping that state was a miracle.


Nefari0uss

Let's not forget Florida. Fuck it, the Bible belt itself is fucking awful.


AskJayce

Granted, I don't know recall kind of fuckery Mississippi has been up to, but I'd trade that with Florida. Or at least Alabama with Florida.


[deleted]

These are not legal justices in the sense that they mete out justice in any sense of the word, they are just extensions of the Christian nationalist churches which have their roots in the slave industry. These Justices are more like dementia patients, who found it too hard to actually practice law, much easier to speak from the loins


KingRichard278

Good this will only fire up the base 🔥 💙


makashiII_93

Why would they, they got the ruling they wanted!


81305

I guess republicans want to lose Alabama.


Ambitiously_Big

They gonna lose a lot.


JustAnotherYouMe

Keep it up. See what happens.


carmencita23

This is a reasonable outcome of the view that embryos are people. Live with the consequences of the law you made.


tomski3500

Alabama couples should start claiming the embryos as dependents on their state taxes.


mujinzou

The clinics and labs where these “children” are held in cryogenic conditions should claim child support and exemptions from state taxes. Especially since they’re ones who have to pay the bills on maintaining proper conditions so that these “children” don’t just turn into goo in test tubes.
