Scalia

Like most people of my ideology, I mourn the death of Scalia. It's tragic and could not have come at a worse time for our country. Two things though. 

1) Celebrating anyones death makes you a monster. Even if you disagree with him on every single issue, you should be adult enough to separate politics and personal. If you don't, you are in for a rough life and you are, well, a total asshole. 

2) There is no conspiracy. None. Ockham's Razor kicks in. The simplest answer is most likely the accurate one. He was larger, older, smoked and ate a lot of bad food. I'm surprised he didn't die earlier. Of course is death is horrible-but bad things happen in life. Especially to those who don't keep themselves in great health and are getting older.  

It's a dark time for those of us who love the constitution. Scalia often came to decisions he didn't like. That's the sign of a morally consistent, accurate and yes, fair judge. Not many of them left.
