* Minorities get stopped and frisked more often in Philly, and not because they commit more crimes, but because the police are racist. So sayeth the ACLU. [Philadelphia Inquirer]

* It’s the end of class action litigation as we know it — and the Supreme Court feels fine. [San Francisco Chronicle]

* Joe Miller is mad about Alaska’s election ballot misspellings. We all know that spelling doesn’t matter, just ask Elie. [Wall Street Journal]

* DADT will soon be making its debut at the Supreme Court. The policy might end on Obama’s watch, but apparently not with his help. [National Law Journal]

* Lamebook is suing Facebook over trademark infringement. It makes you think they should change their name to Failbook until you read the complaint. [TechCrunch]

* Sign of the times: even if you’ve never missed a mortgage payment, your home can still go into foreclosure thanks to Obama’s snazzy Home Affordable Modification Program. [Washington Post]

* A Lexus kills a lawyer. Looks like money can’t buy happiness, but hopefully it will buy a really good wife wrongful death attorney. [New York Daily News]
