Gun-hater Sotomayor likes to play the Race-Card, Scalia had something to say about it:
Scalia scolds Sotomayor for ‘shameful’ racial accusations on affirmative action ban
Whenever race becomes an issue, passions tend to rise — even among the justices serving in the nation’s highest court.
In a 6-2 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that Michigan voters had a right to discontinue the state’s affirmative action policy, which had given minorities a leg up on admission to public universities and colleges, according to the Washington Examiner.
Justice Sonia Sotomayor, a self-described product of affirmative action, lit the fireworks with a blistering dissenting opinion. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg joined her. Justice Antonin Scalia countered with an equally scathing concurring opinion directed at Sotomayor, who implied that Michigan’s decision to ban affirmative action was motivated by racism. She even likened the ban to a return to Jim Crow laws.
“Race matters,” Sotomayor wrote. “Race matters in part because of the long history of racial minorities being denied access to the political process.”
Although Michigan voters decided to ban affirmative action in a 2006 ballot initiative, they also voted to elect America’s first black president — twice.
“As Justice Harlan observed over a century ago, ‘[o]ur Constitution is color-blind, and neither knows nor tolerates classes among citizens,’” Scalia wrote. “The people of Michigan wish the same for their governing charter. It would be shameful for us to stand in their way.”
Then he wrote a passage meant specifically for Sotomayor.
“And doubly shameful to equate ‘the majority’ behind [the constitutional amendment] with ‘the majority’ responsible for Jim Crow,” he said in a footnote, citing the first two pages of Sotomayor’s dissent.
Justice Elena Kagan recused herself, apparently because she had worked on the case while serving in the Justice Department.

Scalia told “the wise Latina” what’s what. These years under Obama have been the worst for race relations. We on the right are the ones that treat minorities as individuals, it’s the racist Democrats and liberals that treat them like colors and groups. Let me make it clear, I hate Sotomayor because she’s stupid and undeserving of her job, the fact that she looks like an ugly maid has nothing to do with it, Ginsburg looks like the wicked witch of the west, and I hate her to.
