Supreme Court Associate Justice Clarence Thomas argued in a Friday opinion that the nation's top judicial body should overrule a previous decision legalizing LGBTQ marriage nationwide and a former ruling that determined criminalizing sodomy is unconstitutional.

Thomas issued a concurring opinion with the Supreme Court's 5 to 4 decision overturning abortion rights as established by Roe v. Wade on Friday. The conservative justice, who was appointed by former Republican President George H.W. Bush, took aim at the Court's 2003 ruling in Lawrence v. Texas and its 2015 decision in Obergefell v. Hodges.


In his Friday concurring opinion with the majority decision to overturn abortion rights, Thomas wrote that the Supreme Court "should reconsider all of this Court's substantive due process precedents, including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell." The justice contended that those precedents were "demonstrably erroneous."

Fascism is always a gradual process, until it all comes down on you like an avalanche.

Are there any gay rights challenges coming through the judicial pipeline?

I know at minimum some red state AGs will process a suit

Not just marriages, he specifically says "relationships" as well.

And Birth Control, because of course.

I can't decide which one would be worse, them literally banning gay marriage during Pride Month or the possibility of it happening the day after.

Clarence is a homophobic bigot and so is anyone that agrees we need to go back and look at this. Eat my shit and go fuck yourself with a rusty spoon if you disagree

He's the worst SCOTUS member I've ever seen in my lifetime. He's also a terrible human being and I hope he suffers in complete agony during the final days of his natural life.

How long before they come for Loving v Virginia, and ethnic minorities in general?

They're coming for everything. After they're done with gay people and women they will go after black people and bring back segregation

Funny how Loving isn't noted by him, despite being "weak" by the same bullshit metric he uses.
Useless hypocrite, I hope the worst for him.
