The three biggest errors during his time on the bench?

1) John Roberts
2) Sonia Sotomayor
3) Elena Kagan

May I say you are an embarrassment just-us Stevens.

[Cicero]

“It was really a disgrace,” he told The Times.

No, Stevens, YOU are really a disgrace.

[backwoods-engineer]

Stevens is an enemy of the Constitution, and of the fundamental rights of the American people, particularly the natural right to keep and bear arms.

Gerald Ford: “John Paul Stevens was my biggest mistake”.

[Louis Foxwell]

It’s good he is retired.

Summary: The bad ones were the ones that protected people’s constitutional freedoms.

[ealgeone]

What a disappointment.

“It was really a disgrace,” he told The Times.

Typo. The quote is: “I was really a disgrace.”

[Gay State Conservative]

Well color me stunned! Fortunately,this pig can't do any further harm to this country.

Can the good Justice explain to why not allowing Gore to rewrite Florida's election law after the fact was a mistake?

USA Today found that if the ballots were counted the way Gore wanted, he would have lost be a even greater margin.

Gore would have lost anyway, while Bush gets the blame.

Stevens confirmed what I long suspected. Kennedy was the source of the dicta that the lower courts have latched on to to limit the application of Heller.

Part III of the opinion was largely Kennedy being the limp wristed clown he is.

Stevens is a scum bag. He’s been railing against Heller since it was decided and consistently speaks out against it and the Second Amendment.

Stevens is a profound leftist radical and these are probably three decisions that substantially preserved individual rights in the United States.

Its fascinating how the Left now regularly spends billions on elections— outspending the right— but still says its imperative to limit spending.

It makes no sense beyond the insatiable desire for govt control.

[Bullish]

I only read the excerpt but Stevens is the utter disgrace, not those decisions.

Similar situations:

President Trump elected with no prior political experience and a lot of common business sense.

Justices on Supreme Court need common sense without the experience as a lawyer or a judge.

[zanarchist]

How old is he now?

[gov_bean_ counter]

There is no fool like an old fool...

[Fungi]

Cocky bastard.

Only the good die young. It must be true 'cause Billy Joel said so.

“He was the one who actually wrote the dissenting opinion, arguing that firearm ownership had to be connected to militia service.”

Well, dipsh*t, the Framers didn’t establish that requirement you so lamely reference. In fact, George Mason, the author of the 2nd Amendment, later stated the people comprise the “militia”’as a bulwark against tyranny.

[lastchance]

He’s just not that into the Constitution.
