He Speaks!
Y’all, he was just waiting for Scalia to die.
And, of course, it was about guns … and domestic violence. Thomas was wondering if it is constitutional not to let people convicted of domestic violence buy guns.
“Did the defendant use a weapon?” Thomas asked, appearing to worry whether suspending someone’s right to own a gun indefinitely when the offense “is not directly related” to the suspension violates the Constitution.
So if you whack your wife with a hoe, you ought to be able to use a gun the next time.
In my opinion, he needs to shut the hell up for another decade.
.
You mean, he didn’t look around and ask “Where’s Tony?” That would be his speed.
1If you whack your wife with a hoe aren’t you abusing two women? What? Oh……. Nevermind.
2So you say he [can] talk? Who knew?
3learn something every day..
JAKvirginia … thank you for that LOL moment!!
4In a sane world, ergo not Clarence Thomas’ world, any man sufficiently st00pid to even consider raising a hand to a woman should worry about the sheriff removing all his weapons. For his own safety, he might also want to consider having the sheriff remove the weapons from his mother’s and his grandmother’s homes.
5Thomas is an unintelligent man. I wonder who writes for him because my experience with him was that he was unable to write a sentence past “see spot run. “. You comment is quite apt. He needs to be silent for two or more decades, lest be be shown for the mediocrity he is. But worse than stupid, he’s boring.
6Not wishing anyone ill health, he could vacation with Fat Tony anytime.
7What a sharp intellect.
8The kind of man who would allow a man convicted of multiple DUI’s to trade in his Honda, and keep his license if he buys a Chevy.
Scalia must have taken the leash to the grave. What next? Guns for the incarcerated?
9@JAKvirginia
Gotta learn the difference tween a garden hoe and a street ho.
10No you idiot. The question is, it is constitutional to deny guns to the clearly, and demonstrable, people convicted of domestic violence, or any violence?
11Does anyone else wonder if Scalia would not let him talk….you know his Massa kept him under control???
Please don’t judge me too harshly but he is such a horrible specimen of a Black human being,
12Anita Hill was pretty clear about Thomas’s views on the way to treat women. So I’m disgusted but not really surprised at the content of his remark. Still surprised that he said anything, though.
Well, there was some comment about Alito greasing his left arm to be ready to replace Scalia, so maybe Thomas is adjusting to the different feel.
13Forgot to mention: I’m still appalled that anyone with that view on the way to treat women is on any bench, much less in the Supreme Court.
14And when you yell hoedown,wingnuts thinks their sister has been shot.
15Since he spoke, does that mean that we have 6 more weeks of winter?
16e platypus onion!!! ROFL … good one, good man.
17Now that Scalia’s leash is off, it will be interesting to see what happens with Thomas. Everything about the man has been creepy from day one.
18And with that one comment, he pretty much showed why Anita Hill was right and that he should never have been confirmed for the SCOTUS or any other court.
19Who’s your Daddy now Clarence?
20epo, you made me laugh.
Rhea and maryelle, exactly. That -hearing/joke- just enraged me. That’s when I discovered what scum, below scum, the scum the rest of the pond scum makes fun of, the scum no one will date, the scum other scum washes off . . . that scum is the scum that is ashamed to be similar to CT.
21You think that Clarence might extend his specific nexus concern to felony disenfranchisement from voting? Yeah, me neither.
22Buns have inalienable rights; women, not so much.
23Sorry. Make that “guns.”
Though I’m sure buns also have more rights than women in the right wing universe. Unless they are women’s buns anyway.
24From what I can see, Thomas has been sitting there faking it all these years.
25Thomas whole life has been a hand up. The last 10 years it was Scalia’s hand.
26Micr … perhaps a street ho is also cultivated as a garden-type ho[e] for variety!! I mean, a girl has to earn a living, right?
27@Marcia in CO
My little bride contributed, in an scornful sort of way, “A hoe is used to loosen up dirt. A ho does not work that way.”
28Oh, Lynn, your stance on buns has got me thinking. Why should male buns have more political status than female buns? It’s something I had never considered until your typo. It is really a metaphor for equality, since those buns are always accompanied by an individual. Big buns, small buns, tight buns, lumpy buns should all be accorded the same dignity and I, for one, intend to fight for Equal Rights for All Buns. Take heed, bun busters, you’re days are numbered.
29That should read, “…your days are numbered.” (My English teacher just turned over in her grave.)
30Big buns, small buns,
31Buns you see in sports;
Tight buns, lumpy buns,
Even buns in cargo shorts
Love hotdogs – Armour hotdogs
The dogs buns love to…..?
Micr: Sorry but must disagree with your bride. A ho can most certainly loosen up dirt. It usually requires an old Ford pickup and lots of cheap booze. Ask around.
