Some people really just do not understand the concept of legal precedent do they? I feel like a solid 30-40% of the awful takes I see on this site could be avoided if people knew the most basic shit about their own legal systems.
#“why can't we just do x horrible thing to these bad people instead?”
#“why can't we allow a violation of bodily autonomy in this one very specific circumstance?"
#even if that were ethical (which it isn't) that doesn't change the fact that YOU ARE SETTING A LEGAL CASE PRECEDENT
#THAT CAN BE USED AS AN ARGUMENT IN ANY TRIAL GOING FORWARD and WILL be weaponised against a marginalised group
#did anyone hear about that one case in the usa where a lady wanted to design websites for peoples weddings
#but wanted to exclude gay couples from her services and she had to take it to trial because it violated discrimination laws?
#it seems ridiculous right? what she's going after clearly violates The U.S constitution AND Nevada's public accommodations law
#WRONG. a lot went on in that case because it lasted like 7 years but
#her legal team managed to find legal precedent of queer people being excluded from an event
#(i think it was like a religious gathering or a parade or something I don't remember)
#that gave them a leg up in the case and eventually they won
#now why do we care that this nobody graphic designer won't design a website for your wedding? you can just hire someone else right
#WRONG AGAIN. because now THIS case is setting even stronger legal precedent for people being excluded from services on basis of sexuality
#and if you can discriminate based on sexuality then why not for other reasons like gender or race or religion
#I could go on and on about the horrible possibilities opened up just by this one case but...you get the point
#I'm not even usamerican!!! I just have to pay attention to shit that happens there because I have to
#sigh. anyway. I'll shut up now
#red talks
