Quotes-start.png "Justice Scalia shreds the collective interpretation as a matter of both common law and Constitutional history.

Many Supreme Court opinions invoke the Founders, but this one is refreshing in its resort to first American principles and its affirmation of a basic liberty." Quotes-end.png
