Ridiculous actions should be put on hold to ensure they are not violating people’s rights instead of letting rights get violated until SCOTUS gets around to it. It doesn’t matter that the first court rulings do it in the right order, the problem is that when it goes to appeals they default to letting rights be violated. I don’t know if this is recent or not, but the opportunity to abuse the system has always been there.
I think, in part, the speed at which things can be done now, sweeping, systemic, horrible things, is simply much much faster than when these systems were created.
It does still seem backwards but maybe they make more sense when you don’t have instantaneous digital global communications.
The system is backwards.
