Oh no! God forbit it! Did I slander the poor little Supreme Court? How will they ever survive after that? They've done a great job recently of destroying their own legitimacy and reputation, with three of its justices appointed by a president who literally tried to overthrow the US government with a mob of rioters in John Deere hats. They're a bunch of hypocrites who aren't even consistent in relegating things to be decided by the states, with their recent ruling that states have no right to regulate concealed carry (a thing not mentioned in the Second Amendment, if we're going by Alito's wildly irresponsible thinking that everything must be so explicit and to the letter).
You're also doing nothing but proving my point about Hale, i.e. the mere fact that this late Renaissance individual and his cases are brought up in the first place is a laughingstock. We're talking about a man who lived in the British Isles four centuries ago. His rulings on witches and warlocks and magic potions and dragons and goblins have no place in a modern American courtroom, in its rulings, or in its correspondences. It would be one thing if Alito was some historian educating the public about the history of common law; it's another thing entirely that he is a Supreme Court Justice citing Hale and other bygone jurists and their rulings in an argument that modern people living today do not have a positive right to procure an abortion. You know, that thing that has been the law of the land for five decades until now.
It's just a cherry on top that Matthew Hale was a literal witch hunter who presided over the executions of two women for witchcraft.
