[16:28]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR2]: Trying to find a dentist.
[16:28]	IsambardPrince	Trying to find one that's in network has become the real trick.
[16:28]	schestowitz[TR2]	i see
[16:28]	IsambardPrince	All the ones that are in network with insurance are the ones were people say their filling came out a week later and now they can't get back in.
[16:28]	schestowitz[TR2]	thankfully i never need the dentist... yet
[16:29]	IsambardPrince	And you get those form letter responses like "Oh we're very sorry to hear that."
[16:29]	schestowitz[TR2]	maybe one day i will need my first tooth filling
[16:29]	IsambardPrince	The out of network ones are 5 stars, no complaints.
[16:29]	IsambardPrince	They go well we'll help you file a claim but you pay us the entire thing up front then your insurance will decide if you get anything.
[16:30]	IsambardPrince	So it's like you might pay them $400 if they decide you need a "deep cleaning". Then the insurance goes "Well, we pay $40 for a cleaning."
[16:31]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR2]: The birthright citizenship case was decided against Trump's executive order.
[16:31]	IsambardPrince	But by a closer margin than I expected.
[16:31]	IsambardPrince	6-3.
[16:31]	IsambardPrince	Three of them decided that the Constitution doesn't mean what it says.
[16:32]	IsambardPrince	And Clarence Thomas wrote a 93 page opinion to that effect.
[16:32]	IsambardPrince	"It means whatever gets the brown and black people out of the country."
[16:32]	MinceR	and they're ones who are always up in arms about how only the constitution matters
[16:32]	MinceR	the party of law and order.
[16:32]	IsambardPrince	I certainly hope Trump doesn't get to appoint more.
[16:33]	MinceR	"conservatism" is a disease
[16:33]	IsambardPrince	Brett Kavanaugh was in the majority ruling against the order, but he voted to strike it down due to statute, not the Constitution.
[16:34]	IsambardPrince	He said that immigration statutes from 1940 and 1953 grant birthright citizenship, but not the Constitution (which says it does, so that's funny....)
[16:34]	IsambardPrince	So according to him, Congress could simply change the law at some point.
[16:34]	IsambardPrince	Then you're down to 5 who said the Constitution grants it.
[16:35]	IsambardPrince	The reason Kavanaugh makes no sense is because the amendment doesn't say what some of them say. Some of them say Congress shall pass legislation to that effect filling in the particulars.
[16:35]	IsambardPrince	But the Citizenship Clause doesn't do this.
[16:35]	IsambardPrince	It says that people born here are citizens, it doesn't require any legislation.
[16:36]	IsambardPrince	Congress can certainly pass a law saying the same thing as the Constitution, but that only means that if the Constitution is vague or they amend it later, then the law would also need to be changed.
[16:37]	IsambardPrince	Or that the law would grant an additional right.
[16:37]	IsambardPrince	Birthright citizenship is only granted by statute in two cases currently, which are not necessarily covered by the Fourteenth Amendment.
[16:37]	IsambardPrince	To Native Americans who are born on reservations.
[16:38]	IsambardPrince	And to Puerto Ricans.
[16:38]	IsambardPrince	But if you're born in a State or Washington DC, you're a citizen per the Constitution no matter what statute says.
[16:38]	schestowitz[TR2]	<IsambardPrince> schestowitz[TR2]: The birthright citizenship case was decided against Trump's executive order.
[16:38]	schestowitz[TR2]	recently?
[16:39]	IsambardPrince	This morning.
[16:39]	schestowitz[TR2]	took so long
[16:39]	IsambardPrince	Yes.
[16:39]	schestowitz[TR2]	demented fart farts
[16:39]	IsambardPrince	It took too long considering how obviously illegal the executive order was.
[16:39]	schestowitz[TR2]	and then it takes 2 years
[16:39]	schestowitz[TR2]	for some other farts to undo his fart
[16:39]	schestowitz[TR2]	sad.
[16:39]	IsambardPrince	And that it violated over 100 years of precedent (US v. Wong Kim Ark)

[16:40]	IsambardPrince	When something got decided by the Supreme Court in 1896, when even in 1896 with a backdrop of racist panic brought about largely by California....

[16:41]	schestowitz[TR2]	<MinceR> the party of law and order.
[16:41]	schestowitz[TR2]	yes, like abusers who promote CoCs
[16:41]	schestowitz[TR2]	and enforce it against others
[16:41]	IsambardPrince	California was behind the Chinese Exclusion Act.
[16:41]	IsambardPrince	What a horrible law.
[16:41]	schestowitz[TR2]	while they themselves violate the CoC
[16:41]	IsambardPrince	One of the worst federal laws ever on the books.
[16:42]	IsambardPrince	In my opinion it may be a tie for first place with the Fugitive Slave Act.

[16:43]	IsambardPrince	At some point it isn't even about whether it's constitutional. It becomes a matter of what a free and democratic society can allow. If you allow that, you're not one.
[16:44]	IsambardPrince	Excluding people and subjugating them to slavery based on skin color.
[16:45]	IsambardPrince	And worse than just the slavery, saying that if they somehow made it to a free State, that those States had to return them to be flogged for trying to escape and then put back out into the fields.
[16:45]	IsambardPrince	You know, that was another abuse of Psychiatry.
[16:46]	IsambardPrince	At the time the Southern states had Psychiatrists develop a "mental illness" that described why a slave would even want to be free.
[16:46]	IsambardPrince	It's the same way that they cooked up a "mental illness" to describe being gay.
[16:46]	IsambardPrince	Or the Soviet Union cooking one up to describe people who didn't like Communism.
[16:47]	IsambardPrince	Communism is so goooooood you'd have to be mad as a hatter to not want to live in that.
[16:47]	IsambardPrince	When you're a scientist and the party says you don't get more than the guy working in a shoe factory.
