WOW. US has gone complete NAZI. WOW. This reverses 200 years of progress in human civilization.
The headline does NOT do justice to the implications. It puts into law that some people have LESS RIGHTS than others if they are NOT WHITE.
Umm... I'm not sure how long you've studied US History but non white have always had less rights. Just not always written explicitly so.
Yup. Originally, Irish and Italian immigrants weren't white. Syrians and Arabs have always been white though, because as they argued in court, if they weren't white, neither was Jesus. So that case ended quickly.
RIP US Democracy (aged 1965 or so to 1980 something). We hardly knew ye.
For you today was the day that it put into law that some people have less rights than others if they are not white.
For America it was Monday.
I like your username!
First off I absolutely disagree with the decision 100%, but that's not exactly what it said. What it said was that race could be taken into account among other things like location, employment type, etc. The result is the same of course, people being disappeared off the street for being brown. I just don't like dishonest reporting.
This is also only an interim decision that only officially applies to operations in Los Angeles for the duration of that litigation and further appeals (e.g. 1-2 years). There was no opinion or explanation on how this ruling comports with existing 4A and 5A case law.
Stop and Frisk is legal in the U.S. Same policy, just different targetsa.
