Gibsmedat! Scalia was wise - and back to charities, does that "for just $19 a month, you could ..." bug anyone? Relentlessly panhandling me, yet minimizing my contribution as "just" no big deal - a cup of coffee. And doing me a favor to take my money so I will feel good about myself! Just a "please give, thanks" would be nice.
One of the few actual Catholics to serve on the court, alongside Thomas and Alito. Nose size seems to directly correlated with basedness for Catholics.
Aristotle makes the same point Scalia did in "Nicomachean Ethics". He talks about how the recipient of charity hates his benefactor. The benefactor derives a nice feeling from donating money to a poor person, so he ASSUMES [wrongly] that the same feeling is generated in the object of his charity. Wrong!
As Aristotle points out, someone who is in debt to someone else DREAMS of them dying (so that they no longer feel indebted). Imagine if you took out a loan to a bank and the bank died, thus absolving you of the debt? You'd be in ecstasies.
Likewise there is an unreciprocated love between benefactor and pauper.
Long story short: White people, don't imagine that you can buy the love of black people and other minorities. The more you "try to be charitable," they more they resent you . . . the more they see your gift as an "entitlement".
Now we have people using fear as a virtue. In my mind I picture the honorable Scalia sitting at a table with Rush Limbaugh having a cigar while listening to George Carlin telling jokes about the future but end up being spot on predictions.
And, for the record, Antonin Scalia did not kill himself...
And that fucking creep John podesta was involved.
Obama killed him, authorized the wet works.
If he was alive the Texas vs negro counties case would have standing.
Scalia knew too much.
"We no longer Select for Charity" is how I have been putting it for years.
We used to Breed Goodness in ourselves. That Stopped.
Dude was murdered, you can't change my mind
So true. Fully uninsured patients tend to be thankful for care received. Medicaid patients are often the MOST demanding and least compliant

This is a good read on the topic
It just occurred to me to wonder:
Could the last Year have gone down like it did with Antonin in the saddle???
I think that his Force of Personality alone would have Burst Through!
RIP. What a tragic loss for our nation.

That is a fan-friggin'-tastic quote. No wonder they decided to take him out.
An intellect and strength of character like his, is a very dangerous thing to their ideology.
Actually, so are we.
So, umm, I was never here. Never even heard of this place. Don't believe the suicide note.
Thieves and beggars should get the boot

On the money, Sir
Go read this message in a bottle that Justice Scalia left for us - to fight for and use or not.
Oklahoma (Kevin Stitt) , Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota (Doug Burgum) Nevada, and Kansas
A fucking men

I miss this man, I wish he would not have been Arkensided.
