Should the US Supreme Court be more diverse?

@SparklyKatie Said

Why are they the best though?

@raditz Said

Name calling isn't nice, and it's against the TOS.

@Hazuki0chan Said

But you know you are. It's so easy to see.

@raditz Said

And hows that? Because I think there should actually be something more substantial to someone's employment than the color of their skin? Or do you think that is all that minorities have to offer?

@Spinkiegirl Said

NO I do not! I look at who's been leading this country from the start! I look at who's been representing me and what I want and need! And yes, I will again go right back to some founders of this country who didn't care nor give a dam about what they were setting fourth for this nation! The evil mistakes they allowed by making a pack with the devil himself led to all kinds of disgusting evils that are still with us today! Allowing their so called morals to be compromised at the hands of innocent human beings! And for what? No, some of those founders you hold so dear did that! I don't....and I sure as hell didn't! I'am on the right side of history!

@raditz Said

The SC judges aren't elected.

@Hazuki0chan Said

The answer to the question.

"Should the US Supreme Court be more diverse?"

I answered yes.

No, because I've noticed your posts in not just this thread, but many others that usually tend to have some racist connotation to them. Race doesn't matter to me, but when it comes to a already so diverse country, it's government should be equally as diverse. Unless white old men have no racial bias whatsoever, a little more diversity in the Supreme Court couldn't hurt. But even among the diverse, protocol should still be followed.

You know, you keep saying that, and I often wonder. What exactly IS the "right side of history?" I've studied history for quite a while now, and I got to say it can be quite hard to say who's right and who's wrong, even in cases where you'd think such a judgment would be easy to make.

do know any not-whites personally?

Well, I must say, I didn't like history classes at all. Now I wish I had payed more attention! What I mean is, whenever there's times when i'am discussing or reading about events of the world's past and present mistakes.......especially that here in this country, and knowing that ALL humans feel physical pain....and when I hear some defense of some of the founders and even today when so many humans are victims of people selling or keeping girls in the sex trade...or folks who keep saying they want to keep the values and principles of the constitution, well IMO....that's the wrong side of history in my eyes! When you hold in your heart and practice evil in the name of politics or religion then when our past history is told, IMO, it's those who follow making man better not worst who is on the right side! Example....slave owners....of any race, did evil.....intentionally causing harm to another human......is wrong, so don't do it! Getting sleeping here.....and i'am sure that you feel different than I do. But let me tell this.....I have no desire or right to say what is and what isn't the idea of right and wrong to someone else. I know one can grow up and being taught that slavery was ok.......but I think if that's all you know from what you were taught and lived.....then somewhere in your soul, you would have to feel at some point....causing pain to another, can't be good!

@crazylikeafox Said

OK, well that's the 1770's and 1780's (and completely ignores the founders from the North, most of whom never even MET a slave let alone owned 1, but that's beside the point). Do you have anything a little more current? You use that phrase for modern people, which is why I wonder what you mean by the "right side" of history.
