The Beginning of the Fall of the Hoax of Grutter...

 Read here.*

Since the George W. Bush war years, America has relied on the use of force and threats more than reason and the rule of law.  

We see in the post-presidential-election fiasco what happens when the Court refuses to hear, and adjudicate, legitimate legal disputes.  What happens when the Court shies from their sworn duties and refuses to rule -- or even take a case! -- and responsibly guide the nation under the rule of law...

Chaos.

Social disputes being settled in streets.  Mindless violence. The murder of civilians and the related consequential deaths when overexertion causes heart attacks and strokes following physical confrontations...

 Have we not yet learned, and accepted the wisdom, that democracy cannot be imposed at gunpoint?  Not by shock-and-awe technology, nor at the hands of National Guard troops ringing the Capitol?  You need the buy in of the American people. Not guns dominating over Consitutional law and the will of the people.  How well did that work in the Bush/Obama war years... "over there"?  Expect it to fare as well here.  Let's not again go that route?

Like it or not, the Court must address the racial discrimination in our country.  When Grutter is overturned, like when the Minneapolis cops charged with killing George Floyd "get off", the Court and lower courts need to stand strong and follow the rule of law, come what may...

If the Court again surrenders its duties, and lets these matters be settled in the streets, it will be another sad day for America.  Decisions like these are tough -- let's hope the cries over the decades to bring an end to "legal" discrimination are finally heard, and adjudicated according to the Constitution and legal precedent, something that clearly was not upheld in Grutter.

Read it and think yourself about these weighty issues -- if you can -- that will affect America's future growth and demand for excellence.  Despite what has happened in the early years of this century -- under both Republicans and Democrats (even today, America is still militarily attacking sovereign nations to pursue our own national goals), the American people are a people who value the ruleof law over physical violence, on all levels.

The Court needs to recognize this, gird themselves, and reclaim their role as peaceful adjudicators. Not social activists. Like what happened to mainstream journalism where the longstanding rules of the profession -- like independent story coverage -- were tossed (remember the "JournoList" scandal?) in favor of propagandizing: = unwise collaborations designed to create desired (only by some) social outcomes under the guise of independent, honest news coverage.

 The judicial branch needs to be less concerned with shaping social policies, and more concerned with providing a reliable framework using the rule of law that all citizens, and even non-citizen residents, can rely on to guide the country forward in the coming decades.  Simple fairness. Honest competition. Judging an individual's character, not this identity-politics lumping-and-judging on superficial physical characteristics...

This is indeed, The Beginning of the Fall of the Hoax of Grutter...

Good riddance.
