March for Our Lives 2022 in Little Rock.

There is a March for Our Lives 2022 event scheduled for June 11 at the Arkansas State Capitol. We may be in blood red Arkansas but we need to be heard.

Please sign up and show up.

The Carpenters "Bless the Beasts and the Children."

I don't often post in this group but this song came to mind reading posts about this week's mass murder.

Why is Chuckie Todd back on MSNBC at lunchtime?

I thought we were done with him.

I really don't need to hear him talk about how the Democrats are doomed in the midterms.

I bit the bullet and voted in the Arkansas Rethuglican primary.

Arkansas has an open primary and the only election was on the Rethuglican primary. I had a list of people to vote against, starting with Sara (Smokey Eyes) Huckabee Sanders for Governor.

When asked what ballot I wanted I muttered "Republican, God help me." The worker laughed an gave me the ballot.

The Kentucky Derby upset made understandable.

Overhead camera angle for the Kentucky Derby. Watch the jockey guiding the horse through impossible traffic.

Amazing performance by horse and jockey.

The leaked draft opinion does prove one thing. SCOTUS is just another political body.

Putting aside for the moment that released draft strongly suggests that a majority of the Court is prepared to overturn Roe, the draft opinion would not have been released without the OK from a justice - no mere law clerk would take such a step on their own. The only explanation I have is that some member(s) of the Court is hoping to use public opinion to effect the final decision.

My personal opinion - unencumbered by evidence - is that one of the conservative judges is trying to stiffen the resolve of the majority.

The citadel has fallen. Stare decisis is dead. SCOTUS is just another political body in black robes and life tenure.
