Fridge Horror

  • Being a mutant has been outlawed after the first arc. We see the consequences on-panel, but the existence of that law means that several congressmen of both parties voted for it, and that the president signed it. And there is one more problem: the Equal Protection Clause. Even if legislators vote for this bill and the president signs it, it may be challenged in court as unconstitutional. After all, there is precedent: the Brown v. Board of Education case. But, as none of this happened... we can infer that judges are biased against mutants as much as most other politicians, to the point that their bias take precedence over their duties.
