in reply to dwatchnews • • •The reason it's not nearly as extreme as those other cases is because this is merely reversing illegal orders by lower courts.
It's not imposing or justifying anything like racial regulations. In fact, the ruling emphasized that racist policies are illegal. Instead, this is just saying a lower court issued a ruling that doesn't match US law.
This is about court action. That needs to be understood.
