If at First You Don't Succeed, Tell the Judge to Go F%$# Himself

This does appear to be the motto of the Alabama Republicans, whlo responded to a court ordering them to come up with a redistricting plan that does not disenfranchise black people with complete defiance of the court.

My suggestion?  A contempt finding by the judge, but not jail or fines, it should be public flogging.

A panel of federal judges rejected Alabama’s latest congressional map on Tuesday, ruling that a new map needed to be drawn because Republican lawmakers had failed to comply with orders to create a second majority Black district or something “close to it.”

In a sharp rebuke, the judges ordered that the new map be independently drawn, taking the responsibility away from the Republican-controlled Legislature while chastising state officials who “ultimately did not even nurture the ambition to provide the required remedy.”

I'm not sure how you do deal with screaming barbarian hordes, but clearly but clearly appealing to their sense of civic duty ain't it.
