Some of my favorites...

Griswold vs. Connecticut - legalized birth control
Roe vs. Wade - legalized abortion
Lawrence vs. Texas - overturned sodomy laws
Tinker vs. Des Moines - gave students free speech rights
United States vs. Virginia - VMI has to admit women
Texas v. Johnson - Law prohibiting burning of the American flag is unconstitutional as violating the First Amendment
Reno v. ACLU - The Commmunications Decency Act, regulating certain content on the Internet, is so overbroad as to be an unconstutional restraint on the 1st Amendment.
Mapp v. Ohio - Evidence obtained by searches and seizures in violation of the United States Constitution is inadmissible in a criminal trial in a state court.
Brown v. Board of Education - segregated schools in the several states are unconstitutional in violation of the14th Amendment, overturning Plessy.

US vs Virginia was a horrible decision. Are you a communist NCLib?

Due you oppose the ruling based on constitutional principles or do you support VMI policy of not admitting women?
