Opinion | Anton Scalia was a worthless stinking fat piece of shit who ignored reality to legislate his twisted vision from the bench. Glad he's fuckin dead.

Look I hate the guy plenty, too, but this isn't exactly solid ground to start a discussion with. The article provides plenty of ground to talk about linguistics or at the very least not just hate on him. I think it's important to point out that he was not just a deplorable person, but that the very reasoning he used to argue in favor of his points was not based in reality.

Agreed, sorry, it was just the format of the title made me want to format my personal opinion on him as well.

That's just, like, your opinion, man.

Also, just to point out:

but that the very reasoning he used to argue in favor of his points was not based in reality.

I feel like I covered that.
