One of the few things that unites judges of every political persuasion is that they really, really hate it when people disobey court orders.

Are they gonna throw the state of Alabama in jail for contempt? I wouldn't put it past the assholes who drew the map to just eat any fines because they want to be racist.

We're in a strange new world where authority yields to party over country. It's ingrained so well now that it'll get a lot worse before people rise up to regain country over party.
