Turning the clock back...

The Supreme Court recently released a decision striking down a CA ban on the purchase of violent video games by kids. In his dissent, Thomas said there’s historical evidence that shows that the founding generation believed parents had absolute authority over minor children. He said that Puritans thought children were 'innately sinful and that parents’ primary task was to suppress their children’s natural depravity.'”

And by that logic, let’s take away civil rights for women and non-whites; go back to each African-American MAN’s vote counting for only 3/5’s of a white man’s; take away the vote from all women of all colors; take away women's right to own land; take away the right of women to hold any kind of position of authority; and on and on.
