GREENVILLE, N. C.—A tour of local barbecue joints is a better way than many to understand why the outline of North Carolina’s First Congressional District is featured in a lawsuit.
More than 150 miles wide, the district dips down on its eastern flank to reach Greenville and B’s Barbecue, an old-fashioned dive on the outskirts of town where the pigs cook overnight and a line of patrons stretches into the dirt parking lot by midmorning.

Make it fair & just, so neither side can press their thumb on the scale of Democracy. Both sides have done it, and both sides need to stop.

About damn time. Our whole method for drawing voting districts is flawed and about undemocratic as possible.
NOW---WE WILL SEE--If all this fighting and political dirty tricks by the 'ReTHUGlicans' to get 'THEIR GOOD OLE BOYS' on the SC will pay off!!! IF this court fails to uphold voter rights/OR passes it back to the states!!!---THEY WIN!! USA LOSES!!

Surely hope so.

Supreme Court to consider whether Beltway sniper Lee Boyd Malvo deserves new sentencingBetween Sept. 5 and Oct. 22, 2002, John Allen Muhammad and Malvo killed 10 people and wounded others in sniper attacks in Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia. Sure, give him the death sentence and save the taxpayers the expense of supporting him for another 20 or more years. We must allow ourselves to find root cause for mass killings by guns. And accept the fact for what it is. I ask myself, why is it 90% White Males and White Supremacist emboldened, American Citizens? no

Supreme Court will take up immigration-related case next termThe Supreme Court agreed on Monday to hear a case next term concerning Kansas' prosecution of three undocumented immigrants for using stolen Social Security numbers in an effort to gain employment. Is Ruth sleeping again? If American citizens can be prosecuted for using stolen Social Security numbers, it is ludicrous to think that illigal immigrants cannot be prosecuted for the same crime!!

Supreme Court agrees to hear deadly DC sniper shootings caseThe Supreme Court agreed to consider Virginia’s plea to reinstate the life-without-parole sentence of a man who as a teenager participated in sniper shootings that terrorized the Washington, D.C., region in 2002 While this crime was particularly egregious, as a 'child' who was highly influenced by an adult and not fully formed, how responsible is he for his actions? The science is not clear on such cases. He did not participate. He murdered people. Glossing over this is an embarrassment. He was young. He was manipulated by the older man. The state is treating him unfairly.
