I make no apologies

Scalia was a f@cking a@@ in life
He demeaned, belittled and robbed people of their rights because he didn't believe in equality
He allowed his opinions to be shaped by his own medieval religious wants
He was such a douche he wouldn't even show up to hear Pope Francis speak because the Pope wasn't going to talk about the evils of gays and abortion, but rather the Pope was going to talk about economic justice and concern for the poor.
IMO he violated he compromised his independence when he went hunting with Elmer Fudd Cheney while hearing a case involving said hunting menace.

I am glad he is gone because he won't be able to do more damage to minorities, working families and unions. At best it'll be a 4-4 split.
Good riddance Scalia.

At his funeral look for the guy in the white tux, tap dancing on his grave

that this is about more than just abortion rights. Our economic rights matter -- but Scalia usually (though not always) voted as if we had none, only corporations did. He was an avowed classist, as well as sexist, religious bigot, etc. etc.

certainly will have none for you when you die.

Your death will not make you any less evil, or repair your destruction.

It will only stop you from being able to commit your evil acts.

He was an evil, evil man. An unabashed torture cheerleader and all-around vile sack of shit. This is one grave that begs to be danced on!

No apologies from me either.
