Yes, and you need to recognize that is an outlier. Stop the hate, boomer. Back to your farina.

it's not an outlier to the people dealing with it, and if not nipped (lol) in the bud, will become more and more common.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected Alabama’s stay request, the first sign that it will not be blithely compliant with state officials’ attempts to undo the high Court’s June ruling knocking down its maps.

There were no public dissents, nor any additional explanation beyond the one-sentence stay denial.

In its June ruling, the 5-4 majority — with Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Brett Kavanaugh joining the liberals — ordered that Alabama redraw its maps with an additional Black majority district (or “something quite close to it,” Roberts wrote).

Instead, the Alabama legislators produced another map with only one Black majority district and defiantly submitted it to a panel of federal judges. The panel nixed that map too, asserting that it was “troubled” by the “extraordinary circumstance” of the legislators totally disregarding the court’s instruction.

The Repub legislators continue to refuse to draw fair maps. Following Trump's motto, "if you can't win a fair fight, cheat."

WTF is wrong with Alabama? What a fucked up, racist state!

For technical things I would agree, for saying he was the cool kid in NYC in the 80's and 90's getting the idea is enough even if the words were wrong. Cause celebre? better?

So please get off your high horse and shove your head up it's ass
