So? Shouldn't all options be on the table to solve this problem?
- NateEag 4y agoAlmost the fundamental proposition of the USA's governmental system is that some options should never be on the table.

Just pass a media safety law, and if the Supreme Court dares to get in the way, pack it with supporters of the law. Or just ignore the court, too. Didn't it basically grant itself the power to veto laws?
- pc86 4y agoAh yes, "just ignore the court" one of the hallmarks of a democracy.
