I remember my first introduction to the onion was the print edition at my university. What a great publication- and they authored what has to be the best amicus brief to the Supreme Court ever. https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/22/22-293/242292/2022...

I was aware of the brief, but until now had never taken the time to read it.

It's probably the funniest amicus brief ever written. Thanks for linking.

The Babylon Bee's brief in the same case is also pretty good: https://babylonbee.com/amicus-brief

They penned two briefs, the one you linked to was never filed with the court (it “sides” with the police). The one they filed with the court is different. You can read about it here and both are linked: https://reason.com/volokh/2022/10/28/babylon-bee-files-amicu...

(The real brief is also linked at the end of the fake one)
