My hope for the SCOTUS in the future is that they stay conservative just long enough to strike all the worst gun control laws off the record... and then once we get there have the SCOTUS go neutral again with a fairly equal division between left and right wing ideology.
I feel like given the trajectory we are on that seems reasonable that by the time one of them dies a liberal president will be in place to nominate the replacement.
My thinking is, while im excited to see Gun Rights to be honored again, the other stuff they do can be very damaging and harmful. But thankfully gun rights are a bit harder to take back so my hope would be once the SCOTUS goes neutral again they will repair any damage done while leaving the reestablished gun rights in tact.
@freemo It is too bad that in the USA, expansive gun rights are often tied to Taliban attitudes toward women, while personal autonomy views in other areas never seems to extend to defense.
We do not have a logically consistent political viewpoint available to vote for in the USA.
> It is too bad that in the USA, expansive gun rights are often tied to Taliban attitudes toward women,
I have actually never heard these two associated in that way.
@freemo Well the states that have constitutional carry also tend to be hardline no-abortion, and there are various idiots making noise about restricting birth control methods. Which will lead to them losing elections and stall progress on gun rights.
That is a valid concern. Obviously if they had more sane policities on other things then they would have more success with their more reasonable policies like gun rights.
