Supreme Court Justice Scalia was 'basically' a member of the Ku Klux Klan, Emory law professor claims
'Justice Scalia was basically a Klansman,' the professor said
By Hannah Grossman | Fox News

   An Emory law professor, Darren Hutchinson, claimed Monday that the late conservative Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, who was known to be an "originalist" in his interpretation of the Constitution, was "basically" a member of a White supremacist group – the Ku Klux Klan. 

Scalia served on the Supreme Court from 1986 until his death in 2016. He famously maintained a close relationship with Ruth Bader Ginsberg – a progressive judge who viewed the Constitution as a live document, with judicial opinions that were generally in stark contrast with Scalia's. 

Professor Hutchinson, who joined Emory as a social justice fellow in April 2021, is academically focused on critical race theory, according to his curriculum vitae. 

He said on Twitter, "Justice Scalia was basically a Klansman." The professor believed Scalia should have been impeached over an opinion he wrote in the 1987 case McCleskey v. Kemp.

Since when do the Knights of the Klu Klux Klan admit Italian Catholics?

I was led to believe that the KKKK was a fraternal organization for White Protestants of Anglo-Saxon, Germanic, and Scandanavian descent.

Exactly.  It's a toss up as to which group klansmen hate more, blacks or Catholics.

Scalia -- and the rest of the majority -- decided McCleskey v. Kemp correctly.  Professors conducing social science studies don't get to determine the meaning of the Constitution.

I think you spelled A$$hole wrong. Idiots like Hutchinson know it's safe for them to make slanderous statements because the democrat media will never hold them accountable and the people they slander usually won't respond to their asinine comments. Just like all the supposed 'mental health experts' that throw incompetent diagnosis of politicians they dislike to the democrat media who then run with it as if it were proven fact.

Trust me when I say this is the last person a law student needs to listen to. Can he explain the Rule Against Perpetuities?

I didn't think so.
