The funny (ok, not funny) thing is that the law was intended to keep the people in the south from saying that slaves aren't really Americans... and since THEY aren't Americans, their children aren't Americans and their children, and on and on and on. So basically black people aren't part of this country. They can't vote and they don't have rights, and nothing will ever change that. And Thomas will probably be 100% on board with ignoring the constitution to suite his politics. How sad is that?
