It’s strange. You mock the Supreme Court by mentioning how a particular Court ruled that blacks were property. Then you precede to cite one of the most liberal Courts in history, the same court that brought us Roe V Wade, to make your point.

Bravo!!!

Again, you prove my point. (That the courts are not infallible.) You apparently don't realize that you have been wrangled into a trap. Either the courts are always right. (You lose, Rogers v Bellei) or the courts are sometimes wrong. (You Lose, Dred Scott v Sanford.)

I argue that the courts are often wrong, and that we should not rely on the opinions of the courts as being sacrosanct.

Oh, by the way, alleging the court must be wrong because of it's makeup is an "ad hominem." Look it up.
