Reply #120: I don't know that gerrymandering is immoral

[Slickriddles]

It's actually a very common practice and is perhaps unethical and illegal if done too frequently. The consequence is for seats in the House to be very, very secure. I live in a distict that makes no sense whatsoever until you realize that it is an attempt to put all the Democrats from 5 counties into one district. There's even a hilarious little tail that extends into the next county so as to include a major university town. But I don't think it's immoral.
