NYU 2L to Scalia: Do You Sodomize Your Wife?
Poast new message in this thread
Date: April 12th, 2005 8:58 PM Author: odious box office So we had a Q & A with Scalia today, and someone asked the Justice whether he sodomizes his wife. Very classy. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=164639&forum_id=2#2545330) |

If not, I have to applaud someone for having the cojones to ask that question. it's actually not a bad one, given his dissents in Romer and Lawrence. What happened after the question?

Date: April 12th, 2005 9:03 PM Author: odious box office Cojones? How about the disrespect for the justice, their classmates, their law school, their dean who's sitting right next to him, etc? It's possible to ask a question about the privacy interests at stake in Lawrence without being offensive. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=164639&forum_id=2#2545375) |
|
Date: April 12th, 2005 9:08 PM Author: Big-titted Angry Persian Theater I agree completely. All I meant is that it takes "something" to be able to ask what is an inappropriate means of getting at privacy/liberty interests to a justice, knowing full well that you'll face incredible social opprobrium as a result. Sorry if the blasé "cojones" put you off... maybe I should have said it takes a complete moron?
anyway, what was the fallout? |

|
Date: April 12th, 2005 9:09 PM Author: henna demanding wagecucks stag film Do you even know what his stance is? Liberals need to figure out that Scalia doesn't base his opinions on a desired result. His opinion in Lawrence was not an attack on gays. It was an attack on the judiciary's practice of telling the majority (i.e. the legislature) that it cant legislate in an area where there is no constitutional prohibition against legislating.

|
Date: April 12th, 2005 10:11 PM Author: Cream Cruel-hearted Electric Furnace The language he used reeked of homophobia. The opinion contained BOTH a critique of the majority's placing a restriction on the legislature that he viewed as untextual AND scathing insults about the motivation underlying that action.
If Scalia believed that sodomy laws and bans on gay marriage are horrifying examples of state-sponsored discimination -- but Constitutional -- he would have voted the same way, but it would have been a very different opinion. I'm sorry, you just don't refer to the "homosexual agenda" and recite the litany of horrors it's trying to visit on the nation if you believe that gay relationships are valuable and deserve respect. |
|
Date: April 12th, 2005 10:14 PM Author: gay fragrant legend space there is a lot of gray area between believing sodomy laws are a horrifying example of discrimination, and being a horrible homophobic bigot.
He tried to explain his comment today by saying that he believed the court should not be caught up in the homosexual rights movement when dealing with an issue that is not protected by the constitution (in his view) and is still a matter of great conflict in this country and its legislators. |
|
Date: April 12th, 2005 10:16 PM Author: Cream Cruel-hearted Electric Furnace Yep, and he's not anywhere in the gray area. He expressed a great deal of contempt for the whole concept of gay rights. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=164639&forum_id=2#2546000) |

|
Date: April 12th, 2005 10:20 PM Author: gay fragrant legend space i dont see contempt so much as acknowledgment that there are no such things as rights that have not been granted by a sovereign, and this sovereign has not granted gays any special rights.
He stated clearly today that he would support gay rights protections passed by the legislature. |

|
Date: April 13th, 2005 11:07 AM Author: medicated preventive strike house Subject: here's the problem... Scalia and his supporters always defend his holdings (or dissents) that attack reading unenumerated rights into the Constitution. The problem is that Scalia is a textualist (or originalist, whatever terminology you want to use) in a society that is constantly changing and demanding of laws that can evolve as well. Frankly, I thnk he's a bit lazy in this regard.
So, yes, he argues that he's all for gay rights, but that since the Constitution does not say that the fed.gov. can regulate such rights, such decisions must be left to the states. But since the evolution of 14th Amendment jurisprudence, in which the court recognized that several states will discriminate...uh...indiscriminately, we can't simply fall back on what is or is not in the clear text of the Constitution. The textualist ship, as it were, has sailed.
The term "liberty," and the underlying concept of "privacy," necessarily need to be malleable. He doesn't believe this to be the case, which I really believe is a proxy for his anti-gay stance. It's a way for him to espouse conservative, religious views against homosexuality without taking too much heat.
He should not have been asked whether or not he sodomizes his wife. Rather, he should have been asked how he'd feel about Lawrence if one of his kids was gay.

|
Date: April 12th, 2005 10:24 PM Author: henna demanding wagecucks stag film You read too much into that. While it is true that he wasnt exactly as supportive as he could have been, he certainly wasnt advocating against any legislative recognition of gay rights.
|
|
Date: April 12th, 2005 10:21 PM Author: henna demanding wagecucks stag film What difference does it make what his personal opinion is? His dissent tore the majority opinion apart. You can criticize him as a person for his personal beliefs, but as a judge, he did a far better job with that case than any of the judges who sided with the majority. People need to separate the LAW and PERSONAL OPINION.
As far as the homosexual agenda issue, i believe that his point is that the minority cannot use the judiciary to legislate. If the minority doesn't like the fact that they have been singled out, well, too bad. |
|
Date: April 12th, 2005 10:24 PM Author: Vigorous genital piercing temple You need to read the opinion. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=164639&forum_id=2#2546072) |
|
Date: April 12th, 2005 10:27 PM Author: henna demanding wagecucks stag film He could have said nothing negative about gays or the agenda, etc, and you would still be here bashing him as a judge. Who cares about the reasoning, the outcome wasnt what i wanted!!!!
This type of thinking is identical to the way conservatives have taken to bashing the judiciary over the Schavio case. |

the disagreement is whose standards we should count. the majority felt the court could impose its own standards, scalia felt that the legislatures best represent the standards of the states.
neither view is radical or indefensible. |

|

Date: April 12th, 2005 11:48 PM Author: odious box office No offense, but you seem completely ignorant of Scalia's reasoning in Roper. The whole point is that he rejects the "evolving standards of decency framework." The rest was just surplusage. He would read the Eighth Amendment to cover punishments recognized as cruel and unusual at the time of the ratification of the Eighth Amendment. He thinks the whole Trop V. Dulles standard is terrible. You're welcome to disagree witrh him (i do), but at least try to understand what his argument it.

Date: April 12th, 2005 10:46 PM Author: Cream Cruel-hearted Electric Furnace Well, I care for a few reasons.
A. Because I believe that homophobes are the moral equivalent of racists, and I care that someone in a great position of power over me has morals I don't respect.
B. Because I doubly care about that when the someone in power is the darling of the supposed moralists in the country.
C. Because I don't buy this bullshit about how textualists ignore results for a second, and I'm waiting for him and his acolytes to come to a "textualist" position opposed to what I perceive to be his political position. |
|
Date: April 12th, 2005 10:51 PM Author: henna demanding wagecucks stag film A. So maybe we should let you call all the shots, screw the constitution and democracy, Empress Hanna!!!
B. So someone is bad because you dissagree with people who support him. This is horrible logic coming from a smart person.
C. So you think Scalia likes flag burning? He in fact said he thought it was disgusting, but yet he voted that the 1st Amendment protected it. |

B. No, the problem here is not my disagreement with said "moralists," it's their hypocrisy.
C. I don't think he really cares about flag burning on any deep level, because it isn't against his religion. He cares about abortion and homosexuality. |

Date: April 12th, 2005 11:06 PM Author: henna demanding wagecucks stag film "I'm waiting for him and his acolytes to come to a "textualist" position opposed to what I perceive to be his political position."

|
Date: April 12th, 2005 11:08 PM Author: Cream Cruel-hearted Electric Furnace I don't think that he believes that laws against flag burning are a good idea. I do think he believes laws against abortion and gay rights are a good idea.
A position against flag-burning laws is not the same as support for flag-burners. |

Date: April 12th, 2005 11:12 PM Author: laughsome green dilemma He explicitly said that he doesn't care if gays want to pursue their rights through political avenues, yet you're willfully misinterpreting his statements about the homosexual agenda.
You use the term "homosexual agenda" as if there isn't one. There is, and that's fine. And, it's mainly being pursued through the courts, which isn't fine if you have Scalia's construction of the Cons't. |
|
Date: April 12th, 2005 11:16 PM Author: Cream Cruel-hearted Electric Furnace It's a term used _exclusively_ in a negative -- usually contemptuous -- light, by people who are opposed to gay rights.
It's kind of like calling pro-choice people "pro-abortion." Everybody knows exactly what you mean, and where you stand on the issue, when you use that term.
Surely you aren't suggesting that Scalia is ignorant of the implications of the language he chooses. |
|
Date: April 12th, 2005 11:18 PM Author: laughsome green dilemma You're giving it that connotation b/c you hate the people who even recognize that such a thing exists.
What Scalia said about gay rights is clearly true. The legal community has some evolving standards about what's fair with respect to gays and those views aren't held by the American people. |
|
Date: April 12th, 2005 11:24 PM Author: Cream Cruel-hearted Electric Furnace I'M giving it that connotation?
I control the language use of 300 million other Americans?
If you can find me some examples where the term "homosexual agenda" is used by gay-rights organizations or gay-friendly writers to describe the movement they're involved in in a non-ironic way, I'll concede that the connotation isn't clear. |
|
Date: April 12th, 2005 11:28 PM Author: laughsome green dilemma It's funny that you claim that 300 million Americans use it that way and then challenge me to find its use among some tiny subset of people who are seriously out of line with the majority of Americans.

Find its non-ironic use to describe the gay rights movement by anyone friendly to the agy rights movement. Or are you going to argue that people who support gay rights are a tiny subset out of step with America?
Do you agree with me that "pro-abortion" and "anti-choice" are loaded terms, used to signify opposition to the movement being described? |
|
Date: April 13th, 2005 5:46 PM Author: concupiscible faggotry This isn't even a true statement. Most of the "agenda" is being pursued in state legislatures not in courts (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=164639&forum_id=2#2551659) |

Date: April 12th, 2005 11:21 PM Author: tripping cheese-eating lodge incel that's not exactly fair to the view that homosexual conduct is immoral. a person may be a kleptomaniac, but the law doesn't condemn him until he actually steals. you have the view that there is nothing immoral about homosexual conduct. i share that view. but there are many people, maybe a majority, in this country who do view it as immoral. the majority is allowed to express its views of immorality through the law unless it infringes on rights specifically protected by the constitution. privacy is not such a right.

Sure. And I'm allowed to call them out as the moral equals of segregationists.
>privacy is not such a right.
You are of course entitled to disagree with forty years of Supreme Court jurisprudence, but your making this kind of pronouncement in the same post where you point out that I'm not being fair to the opposite viewpoint is pretty ironic. Especially since in this case, the opposite viewpoint is the law of the land. |

Date: April 12th, 2005 11:37 PM Author: tripping cheese-eating lodge incel 'Sure. And I'm allowed to call them out as the moral equals of segregationists.' This is exactly scalia's point- these issues should be resolved by democratic debate and process 'You are of course entitled to disagree with forty years of Supreme Court jurisprudence, but your making this kind of pronouncement in the same post where you point out that I'm not being fair to the opposite viewpoint is pretty ironic. Especially since in this case, the opposite viewpoint is the law of the land.' I think its more about 30 years. but fair enough, there certainly is precedent supporting a right to privacy. an originalist like scalia would say that since the right isn't in the text, it doesn't exist. of course, if we go with an evolving constitution notion of interpretation, it will only exist as long as there are five justices who think it exists. social conservatives will certainly be doing their darnest to make sure there five justices who say it doesn't. |

Griswold was 1965, 40 years ago.
hasn't Scalia in the past ruled in favor of some rights not explicit in the constitution? the right to refuse medical treatment (Cruzan) comes to mind. |

It is entirely understandable to refer to the Democratic agenda, the Republican agenda, the Christian agenda, or the homosexual agenda.

Fuck yes he does. They all do. Did the Legal Realist revolution miss you?
What you aren't comprehending is that Scalia's "desired result" was not an attack on gays, but a refutation of privacy protection. And in doing so, he ignores the Constitution. Whether Scalia likes it or not, Roe is law. |

maybe its disagreeing with the most recent (and narrowly decided) precedent, but its hardly a well settled fact in our country that there is a constitutional right to privacy. and as an originalist, Scalia is within reason to not find one. |
