It's pretty remarkable how every single person in /r/law and /r/scotus knew how the court was going to rule (after the case is ruled on) and no one is ever surprised by the rulings.

As it's my first post in /r/scotus I can say 100% of my posts at the time of your statement did in fact clam that. But, in this case, it really was a simple prediction. I was very curious about this case and have been following it closely. I'm disappointed by it, but hardly surprised.

Given that most of us expected Alito to write the opinion of the court, the result is not unexpected.

I'm not talking in particular this case. It happens in every single discussion. That's why I made what I said plural not singular.

Edit: just went through some of your previous comments, looks like you do the exact same thing I was talking about. Typical. Hindsight is strong with wannabe and not-so-good lawyers.

I take it you were surprised by today's 2 rulings then?

Where did I ever say or imply that? Jesus Christ. The fuck is wrong with you?

Why are you so upset?

I was pretty clear in my initial post. You chose to respond twice with different ways to willfully misinterpret what I'm saying. I have no idea how your brain works, but it's not functioning properly. You should get it checked.

Speaking only about today's 2 decisions, the results are not at all unexpected. Your snide comment combined with the fact that you posted it today indicates that you were surprised. Your comment also carries an air of inflated self-worth. That's fine. You must not follow the court all that closely.

Is this a legal genitalia measuring contest? The "You must not follow the court all that closely" is the type of comment I'd see in a baseball sub with "You just don't know baseball."

Grow up, both of ya's.

This decision was more limited than what was even indicated in your posts, so if you want to play the "I guess you don't know law" game, then think on that Abood wasn't overturned, nor was there any decision on "forced union dues" (as OP claimed, but there isn't really is such a thing, but that's a whole 'nother ball of wax.)

I think you're confusing my posts with somebody else's. I didn't indicate or touch on the scope of the ruling at all.

Your comment also carries an air of inflated self-worth.

You must not follow the court all that closely.

Oh, the irony.

For someone like yourself who claims to follow the court in anyway, you have a very liberal way of reading words that form sentences. No one who allegedly follows any court or reads cases at all would even in the slightest interpret what I said to mean just today and just today's cases. I was clearly talking about how everyone on the Reddit law subreddits knows everything but only after it happens. You'd know this if you had any reading comprehension skills.
