It is irrelevant whether he is for or against the state law.

Clarence Thomas is against it; he thinks it's "silly."

Excuse me. He is a member of the dissenters, sink. What he thinks of the law is irrelevant to his decision. That's what he is saying. IOW, it should be overturned in Texas, but it's not a constitutional matter.

Silly or wise, for or against.

Not: Constitution or Un-Constitutional.

Proof positive that there's a new despot in town.

Bow down before your new RULERS. The Supremes will brook no dissent from Amendments, Legislatures, or the people.

He also understands that the role of the Court isn't to legislate from the bench.
