What are some reasons this is fair, and some examples when it might not be? regina_mckee https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/714973054 2020-09-02 14:36:08 UTC https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/714973054 Question #2 - In the Supreme Court, majority rules, even when a majority could only mean five out of nine. Is this a fair system? Why might the Supreme Court be structured this way? regina_mckee https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/714973824 2020-09-02 14:36:18 UTC https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/714973824 Clarify why there are 9 instead of 10 Supreme Justices. regina_mckee https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/714977053 2020-09-02 14:37:03 UTC https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/714977053 Why do you think Brown vs. Board of Education was mentioned? regina_mckee https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/714978502 2020-09-02 14:37:24 UTC https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/714978502 https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/714999045 There are 9 Supreme Justices because if there was 10 then there would be a tie.]]> 2020-09-02 14:42:27 UTC https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/714999045 https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/715021308 Brown vs. Board of Education was mentioned because they were talking about segregation in public schools.]]> 2020-09-02 14:48:18 UTC https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/715021308 It is put this way because maybe some agree and the others don't. The ones who don't agree can explain why they disagree. waiwaikhaing https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/715042711 2020-09-02 14:53:56 UTC https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/715042711 I think its fair. Let's say there was an even amount of justices like 10. If there was a discussion were you had to agree or disagree, it'll be a 50/50 because one side would have 5 and the other 5. waiwaikhaing https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/755322212 2020-09-17 14:12:29 UTC https://padlet.com/waiwaikhaing/trf9mtbmwr8pkw63/wish/755322212
