Did #Thomas (Tomas) #Scotus just fucking say, #DredScott was about "diversity"? He is a fucking hateful moron puppet. #birthrightcitizenship
Scott then appealed to the Supreme Court of the United States. In a shockingly racist and ignorant 7-2 decision, #SCOTUS ruled that as a man of African descent, Scott was not an American citizen and didn’t have the rights & privileges of a citizen under the U. S. Constitution.

Scott claimed that having been taken to a “free” territory, he had automatically been freed. He sued in Missouri state court, which ruled that he was still a slave under its law. Then he sued in U.S. federal court, which ruled against him saying that it had to apply Missouri law.

Scott had been held as a slave in Missouri, but was taken to Illinois and Wisconsin territory where slavery was illegal. Because he had been taken into “free” territory, Scott believed he could no longer be enslaved and sued for his freedom. Many legal scholars consider the Dred Scott decision to be the Supreme Court’s worst ruling, some even refer to it as America’s worst self-inflicted wound. The decision was eventually overturned by passage of the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments to the Constitution.

#SouthCarolina on #ThisDayInHistory in 1860 became the first state to secede. Its declaration reminded readers slaves had to be returned, noted the #DredScott decision on black ineligibility to be citizens, and stated plainly that defence of #slavery was why they were leaving US.
