In the interview, Justice Scalia insists that he does not personally have a problem with gay people. but says that he believes Americans have the right to oppose gay rights if they so wish.
When asked about his grandchildrens position on equal marriage, he said: I dont know about my grandchildren. I know about my children. I dont think they and I differ very much. But Im not a hater of homosexuals at all.
In the rare interview, he said he suspects he has friends who are gay, but that none had ever come out to him.
Despite never explicitly saying he opposed gay rights, Scalia has been criticised in the past for his voting record on LGBT issues.

You don't say? I mean, you'd figure they'd be best friends!
EDIT TO ADD: Wait did he just say he was wanting gays to expose themselves to him?
