Unfortunately, your understanding of this particular subject is inversely proportional to your amount of reading. .

You only regurgitated the common opinion of people in your vocation, and most of them have never bothered to look at evidence to the contrary. And you don't either.

It's not just on this subject. Lawyers are all about "precedent" and they will mindlessly follow it like robots until the next "precedent" overturns the one they previously believed.

They regard the supreme court like they would the Pope speaking "Ex Cathedra" and simply refuse to consider the possibility that the Highest court may have erred in their judgement or understanding.

And this is how we get Plessy v Ferguson.

If we were having an argument about that decision prior to 1954, you would be assuring me that "Separate but Equal" is correct, and I'm a moron for just not believing what all the "expert" lawyers tell me.

Plessy was not overturned by Brown, Brown was specific to children’s schools and was decided not on XIV but on “new discoveries in psychological research”.

Plessy was overturned by the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

I think you should go for it! Go find you another lawyer, another Mario Apuzzo, and pay him or her a bunch of money to go to court! Be sure you give him or her all your voluminous research, too! That will save them a whole lot of time doing research. Then, when you go to Court, and win, come back here and gloat!

But, do not be surprised when the lawyer tells you, “I took all your research, and read it, but do you realize that SCOTUS decided this back in 1898??? I can’t file this without risking getting sanctioned by a Judge for filing frivolous lawsuits.”
