Shelby County v. Holder (2013). It's not just that a bare majority of the court gutted one of the most important civil rights laws in American history; it's that the principle they relied on was one relied on by apologists for the Confederacy after the Civil War: that states possess a special dignity that's offended if we recognize that some engage in more race discrimination than others.

Citizens United v. FEC. By far. Possibly the worst decision besides Dred Scott and Plessy v Ferguson.

So you think unlimited corporate political donations is even worse than forced sterilization?
