Just remember this about these shit stain Supreme Court decisions rendered by shit people

Precedence means NOTHING. Every last one of these pieces of bullshit can be reversed if we gain both houses of Congress plus the presidency..... and EXPAND THE COURT.

The arguments against expanding the court grow more ludicrous with each crap decision.

But what decision do you want to reverse? If it’s the bump stock one you don’t need to expand the court, just need to convince Congress to ban bump stocks. Problem solved, no constitutional crisis needed.

...today's bump stock decision uses deliberately flawed interpretation of the valid statute.

The majority of the sitting justices are not practicing honest jurisprudence and must be over-ridden to assure fair deliberation and decisions.

Also, we have 13 judicial districts and the supreme court was intended have one justice per district.

appellate courts to be the end of the road for a ruling, even though some of those rulings would suck. At least SOME of the other rulings would be fine! With the supreme court we have now, NONE of the rulings will ultimately be fine.

The country just needs to decide that the one government agency we TRULY need to get rid of is the supreme court, and let cases stop at the appellate level, or with state supreme courts. Like I said...that way at least SOME of the rulings we would end up with would be reasonable.

Often when a lower court rules, attorneys from the losing side will appeal to the SCOTUS. What then? Who's to stop the SCOTUS from taking up the case?

We just need to ignore them. Ok...I know it's not realistic, but this illegitimate court is dismantling the United States of America. There has to be a way to stop them.

The DOJ should also investigate those that paid those bribes, because if they received a favorable outcome from the Justices that received the bribes, that quid pro quo and all involved should recieve CRIMINAL charges, including the Justices.
