Scalia Dissent: I write separately to call attention to this Court’s threat to American democracy

Supreme Court.gov ^ | 26 Jun 15 | Antonin Scalia

[Norm Lenhart]

Some things are indeed more important than money.

[tet68]

Something we must all keep in mind is that
Hitler, Stalin, Mao, all had their own judges too.

We continue to see our Constitution violated by
those who are supposed to uphold it.
This is a clear violation and we cannot allow
it to continue.

Well...one is always a dominate one in those relationships....equality is not in their relationships as we know equality to mean....they have their “roles” to play.

[mom.mom]

What about the best interests of children? There was no consideration for providing the best environment for a child to thrive?

Will homosexual couples have an equal chance to adopt children now?

[caww]

I remember that....he doesn’t mince words...

[exnavy]

Thank you for your opinion.

[concerned about politics]

Will homosexual couples have an equal chance to adopt children now?

I'll bet the North American Man/Boy Love Association members can't wait! They'll get to adopt their very own sex toys, and the law won't be able to do anything about it. According to them, if an infant is old enough to sit up by himself - he's old enough for them to have sex with. They, like other homos, refer to sex with babies as "love."

[xzins]

Yes. In my opinion, divorcing children from marriage means that this is a strong step toward indicating that children belong to the government.

[Vic S]

What makes you think Scalia really knows whats going on in the Supreme court. We have been told by whistleblowers that the Supreme Court judges phones are tapped (home and office). If someone is being forced into a vote, would he know?

[wiseprince]

That’s not going to happen. Truth be told, either take up arms or accept that the country probably isn’t the same country you grew up in and never will be again

[geologist]

YES, YES, YES. PRAY EARNESTLY IN FAITH.
IS ANYTHING TO HARD FOR GOD? No!

HAVE FAITH AND BELIEVE IN ANSWERED PRAYERS BASED ON THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD, IN JESUS PRAISE THE LORD IN JESUS NAME.
AMEN.

[Buttons12]

Why did Scalia (or Thomas, or Alito) not publicly demand that Ginsburg and Kagan recuse themselves? “Just not done” or what?

[concerned about politics]

We have been told by whistleblowers that the Supreme Court judges phones are tapped (home and office). If someone is being forced into a vote, would he know?

EVERYONES satellite based communications are being tapped (NSA), because knowledge is power. One good piece of dirt and the politicians own you. That's why satellite tech was developed.
Face book gives the government updated photos (selfies). Your phone gives them voice recognition. On line sales gives them your banking and purchasing info.
"Moloch" knows everything about you.

[Trod Upon]

You have to be kidding. Texas will go blue long before it "goes its own way".

And soon, judging by the demographics.

[lonevoice]

Justice Scalia’s dissenting opinion has the sobering feel of an historical document that memorializes the day the fundamental transformation of a Constitutional Republic was completed.

[Clump]

I am a lawyer too and I agree with your sentiment completely.
I’m sick at my stomach over this.
We now have legal marriage and Natural Marriage.
Obviously not necessarily the same thing.
Should we start signing up clients who want to marry their pets, parents, siblings, etc?
We should at least force these idiots to explain why one form of “discrimination” is proscribed by the 14th Amendment and other forms are not.
My favorite line in Scalia’s dissent:
“The Supreme Court of the United States has descended from the disciplined legal reasoning of John Marshall and Joseph Story to the mystical aphorisms of the fortune cookie.”
I also love that he called Kennedy’s opinion pretentious and egotistical. Haha

[Trod Upon]

You can pray all you want, but if you want anything to change you must act. America is obviously on her own.

[Salvation]

Thank you.

[concerned about politics]

You have to be kidding. Texas will go blue long before it "goes its own way".
And soon, judging by the demographics.

Actually, Texas is going to be the first state to leave the union after California falls off (God will not be mocked). Then other states will follow. In the end, the U.S. will have 13 countries instead of 50 states. All the liberal areas will be lost to the ocean because of the rising water. The red states with liberal areas will see that part of their state under water or destroyed.
Seriously, God wasn't kidding when he spoke of the great cleansing. People are coming together right where they're suppose to be - the wheat is being separated from the chaff by location as well as in every other way. That way the good people will be in one area and the evil in another so they don't not suffer the same fate.

[Kickass Conservative]

It means your Religious Convictions have no bearing on whatever activity the State compels you to do.

Churches will eventually be forced to sanction Gay, Incestuous and Polygamous Marriage. Like the song goes, “you can’t have one without the other”.

Bake the Cake or suffer the consequences.

It means your Religious Freedoms are granted by the State.
You may Preach your Beliefs, but you cannot Practice them if they conflict with Government Mandates.

It renders the First Amendment meaningless. Heck, the entire Constitution is pretty much meaningless.
