Scalia's Dissent Unraveled

Ok, so, i finished writing the second part of my Law Review article, the part that deals with Scalia's dissent. I'm sorta afraid that it's crap. However, i at least now have a roadmap for my article. From my whiteboard:

P might be prohibited. To prohibit it, courts must give reasons. If they do, then -P. If this is true, then homophobes can't argue that G -> P -> D. So, there is no slippery slope. Scalia's "parade of horribles" doesn't work.

"P" means polygamy, "G" means gay marriage, and "D" means man marrying a donkey. You can credit James Dobson for D.

In other news . . .

12 of the 13 miners trapped after an explosion in West Virgina were found alive. That makes me happy.
