  1. "Ripe", not "right". A case is "ripe" if it "presents a purely legal issue, or if further development of the facts will not render the issue more concrete". That is to say, the legal issue is fully fleshed out, there has been a direct threat (not a perceived future grievance) and all other legal avenues have been exhausted. It is ready for the Supreme Court.

  2. A Starbucks Barista asking one of the greatest legal minds in the country an inane question. Too funny.
