One has to wonder if Breyer will demonstrate the aphorism:

"A conservative is a liberal who has been mugged".

If so, let’s hope they’re never recovered.

Well, it said he was vacationing there. But who in their right mind would have a vacation home in the West Indies? There’s a ton of black radical and Islamist action throughout those places, not to mention plain old crime.

I doubt it.
Most libs are libs because they can have a false sense of righteousness about it.

Anyone who would invest in a country where there is no rule of law is a fool and gets what he deserves.

The article has expanded some since I posted it. There is now the following added info:
The last time a justice was the victim of a crime was in 2004, when a group of young men assaulted Justice David Souter as he jogged on a city street. Souter suffered minor injuries.

In 1996, a man snatched Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's purse while she was out walking with her husband and daughter near their home in Washington. Ginsburg was not hurt.
