Thanks for bringing up the anniversary of this momentous SCOTUS ruling, Loki. It is probably both the most celebrated and possibly the most contentious of all SCOTUS decisions. You continue to serve some purpose on OPP...besides being curmudgeonly. Hell, you alone make being on this forum worthwhile. BTW, in no particular order, here is one list of the most controversial SCOTUS rulings/decisions:

Ten Controversial Supreme Court Cases

Brown v. Board of Education
Roe v. Wade
Miranda v. Arizona
Marbury v. Madison
District of Columbia v. Heller
Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission
Plessy v. Ferguson
Bush v. Gore
Lawrence v. Texas
Dred Scott v. Sanford
