Between my Soylent stash (for the end of the world) and my water stash (for the end of the world) I don't even need to dip into my savings, so that's nice. Yesterday the United States Supreme Court overturned Roe V. Wade, marking the first time the Court has ever decided to take away Constitutional rights. Four of the majority were men, joined by one woman, and the dissenting opinion was written by two women and one man. No Supreme Court justice is under half a century old. --- REPORT: JUSTICE ALITO CONSIDERING ADDING EXCEPTION FOR HIS DAUGHTER, WHO IS IN COLLEGE AND WHOSE LIFE COULD BE 'RUINED' BY MISTAKE By TRINITY BLAKE; 2022-05-04 WASHINGTON (AP) -- As women across the country fear losing access to safe and legal abortion, reports are coming in that Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito is considering making a major exception to the court's decision to overturn the historic 1973 Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion throughout the United States. Justice Alito has reportedly informed an anonymous source that he 'screwed up' and that though he believes abortion should be illegal, '[his daughter] isn't like all those [expletive] who will go out and [expletive] and then just roll up to a clinic and abort a living child'. In Alito's reported words, 'Having this child could ruin my daughter's career. She made one mistake. She isn't like the others!' Alito went on to say that while doctors who perform abortions are still murderers, '[his daughter] is different. She just is. I wouldn't expect you to understand.' The exception, being called by critics 'Alito's folly', is expected to appear in Alito's third draft opinion. Alito's second draft opinion broadened the allowed language to 'better describe' what Alito called 'party idiots who don't care about human life'. This wouldn't be the first time a Supreme Court Justice has added an exception to a seemingly concrete ruling. In Plessy v. Ferguson the often-overlooked tenth 'diversity' Justice, George Freeman, added an exception to the famous 'separate but equal' rule; 'While I'm required to like segregation in order to maintain my position in this Court, I do not want to use the colored bathrooms. Shop- owners never clean them.' The anonymous source also said after Alito drives his daughter home from Planned Parenthood he plans to continue protesting that same location in his 'special disguise' - sunglasses and a baseball cap. --- <^> No rights reserved, all rights exercised, rights turned to lefts, left in this corner of the web.
