1. 128 S.Ct. 2783 (2008).

2. 410 U.S. 113 (1973).

3. See, e.g., Brown v. Bd. of Educ., 347 U.S. 483 (1954).

4. See, e.g., Plessy v. Ferguson, 163 U.S. 537 (1896).

7. Lochner v. New York, 198 U.S. 45, 76 (1905) (Holmes, J., dissenting).

13. 262 U.S. 390 (1923).

14. The cases all overturned laws that represented the worst sort of bias toward racial (Loving), religious (Pierce), or ethnic (Meyer) minorities. It would be odd for defenders of Heller or Roe to use them as a basis for substantive rights creation. I am also not persuaded by the argument that because the Court prior to Roe announced certain non-textual rights—see, for example, Skinner v. Oklahoma, 316 U.S. 535 (1942)—that the Court in Roe and thereafter was free to embark upon a course of loose substantive rights recognition.

15. Lochner v. New York, 198 U.S. 45 (1905).

16. Doe v. Bolton, 410 U.S. 179, 221–22 (1973) (White, J., dissenting).
