Okay, so it's not such a great day... for anyone

Coretta Scott King has passed away. A great woman, whose efforts to ensure equal rights for everyone, will not be forgotten.

Alito got confirmed. Bye-bye privacy, etc, hello unbridled presidential power and crazy fundamentalist conservative dark times... (Yeah, i know that's over the top, but over the top times call for over the top description.)
