When John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, an autopsy was performed, even though the cause of death, massive injuries due to gunshot wounds, was obvious and witnessed, even recorded. The autopsy was done because it was required. When Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia passed away Feb. 13, no autopsy was performed, even though he died unexpectedly and alone at night. His demise wasn’t noticed until hours after it occurred.

While Scalia's death was a tragedy for his family and for our country I do not believe it was a murder. Antonio Scalia was an older man with health problems. A doctor did make a medical pronouncement.
We need to brace ourselves for the legal struggles this leaves us with regarding the second amendment. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
