Just do it anyway. Make them enforce their ruling.

The last time that I can recall that a State openly defied a federal court order was when Arkansas refused to obey a federal court order to desegregate Central High School in Little Rock. President Eisenhower federalized the National Guard and they enforced the court order at gunpoint.

I don't believe any State has tried something like that since then.

Super idea. Go! Be courageous! God grant us courage and confidence and that kind of committed charity!

There is a special place in hell for most Supreme Court justices.

I’d say we are about at that point again on this and any number of others issues at this time.
