Every time I listen to Supreme Court oral arguments I come away feeling that the existence of a specialized Supreme Court bar is a disservice to the law. Put simply, these people lack subject area expertise and their ignorance--compounded by the Court's--is fucking up the law. 1/

Remember, whenever you hear that “speed wasn’t a factor” in a deadly crash, what they mean is that the car involved wasn’t technically speeding. At least “not by much.” It presumes that the speed limit wasn’t too high to begin with.

When it comes to death from collisions, SPEED IS ALWAYS a factor.

By 1920, the network of interurbans in the US was so dense that a determined commuter could theoretically
hop interlinked services from Waterville, Maine, to Sheboygan, Wisconsin—a journey of 1,000 miles—exclusively by electric trolley.
