With Liberty, and Justice for Straight, White, Male Property Owners.

[AVG-JOE]

Antonin Scalia, who died this month, after nearly three decades on the Supreme Court, devoted his professional life to making the United States a less fair, less tolerant, and less admirable democracy. Fortunately, he mostly failed. Belligerent with his colleagues, dismissive of his critics, nostalgic for a world where outsiders knew their place and stayed there, Scalia represents a perfect model for everything that President Obama should avoid in a successor.....

Antonin Scalia brought his own brand of hate to the court and he was poison to tolerance and freedom.

From the article:

He pioneered “originalism,” a theory holding that the Constitution should be interpreted in line with the beliefs of the white men, many of them slave owners, who ratified it in the late eighteenth century.

Antonin Scalia: Looking Backward

Scalia was Ronald Reagan's biggest mistake.

Republican nightmare:

"After successfully thwarting Obama's attempts to put a more moderate voice on the Supreme Court, President-Elect Bernie Sanders has nominated Barack Obama as the next Justice. His swift confirmation is expected when the newly elected senate convenes in January."

​

Be careful what you wish for.

LOL, now there's an unbiased article. Jesus Christ, the shit people will gobble up!

I swear to God...

How do people this stupid live to adulthood? It used to be that the kid who ate too many marbles didn't grow up to produce more window licking retards, but now here we are with an entire generation of "no child left behind".

These parasites are as vacuous and mindless as the people who bow before statues of Kim Ill Sung in North Korea in Pyonyang while ignoring their own hunger pangs. The people they vote for are as warped as guards in the gulags who know damn well they're well fed because of the forced labor of their own starving people.

Nothing better than a hit piece written after someone is dead and can't defend themselves..

The Author is a coward for writing it, and you are a rube for swallowing it.

Scalia had plenty of time when he was alive to espouse his noxious views, thanks.

the fact he's taking a dirt nap makes the country a brighter place.

He will not be known for moving the court forward

Uh...guy, you got that wrong.

Scalia was someone who believed the rich should buy elections, that because someone won the popular vote they shouldn't be listened to or even have their votes counted, that people should be executed even after the evidence that put them on death row was discredited. He someone who thought your employer should be able to dictate your health care based on their superstitions.

The world is truly a better place now that he's taking a dirt nap.

I was expecting your usual turgid opinion on this post, and you didn't disappoint.

And you added your new trick (who knew and old dumbass could learn one!), the white privilege bullshit to the response.

Actually he believed that if you want to change the constitution, you use the amendment process as intended, not by convincing 5 of 9 un-elected lawyers to do it for you. That he actually was one of those un-elected lawyers and understood the intended limits of his position only increases my respect for him, regardless of your feckless hatred of him.

He strictly defended the Constitution when it supported his views

When it didn't ....not so much

The Bush case I agree was a clusterfuck, either way the court decided the other side would throw a fit, and both sides would have a right to be angry.

As for heller, the people have the right to keep and bear arms, not the state, not the militia, not the government only, the PEOPLE.

And as for citizens united, forming a corporation doesn't mean you lose your 1st amendment rights.

In that case you turn around and move forward! Besides that is why we build bridges...to keep moving forward even when obstructionists or obstacles get in the way!
