Feminist Celebrates Justice Scalia’s Death, Makes Her Want to Sing “Ding-Ding! The Witch Is..

FULL TITLE: Feminist Celebrates Justice Scalia's Death, Makes Her Want to Sing "Ding-Ding! The Witch Is Dead"

Even in the face of a conservative warrior’s death, the feminist media are on the attack.

On Saturday, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia passed away at the age of 79. The Catholic, pro-life constitutionalist embodied the values feminist media fight against daily in the name of their liberal agenda.

Cue their eulogy of a “one-man disaster” and “witch.”

In commemoration of the justice’s death, Jezebel journalist Anna Merlan compiled “A Brief List of Some of the Terrible Things Antonin Scalia Said and Wrote.”

SIGN THE PETITION: Do Not Allow a Vote on Any Obama Supreme Court Nominee

Dispensing with the niceties, Merlan argued, “He has children and grandchildren and Ruth Bader Ginsburg to mourn him; let’s not do that here,” she insisted. “Because Scalia, while brilliant, was also a titanic, sweeping, one-man disaster for LGBT rights, racial justice, abortion access and general human decency.” Because he disagreed with her…

“[L]et’s also take a brief stroll through some of the many hideous and inexcusable things Scalia said or wrote over the years,” she recommended. “Where do we begin? Once we do, can we ever stop?”

She had little-to-no sympathy for his passing.

“Everyone deserves to rest in peace, we suppose, but Scalia is certainly not entitled to any special measure of it,” she wrote towards the end of her story.

Feminist writer Jill Filipovic similarly shed no tears.

“At the very least, for American women, Scalia’s death means the basic right to abortion is safe for now,” wrote Filipovic for Cosmopolitan. “But for many Texas women, the right promised by Roe may continue to be more of an aspiration than a guarantee.”

For Romper, an offshoot of feminist site Bustle, writer Jamie Kenny also spun the death as a positive.

“[H]is voting record as viewed from an intersectional feminist perspective is frankly, appalling,” she wrote.

“Scalia was often on the wrong side of progress, by most accounts,” she bashed. “From abortion rights to civil rights, to marriage equality to healthcare, from corporate citizenship to affirmative action, Scalia was known less for his rulings, and more for the pithy, gasp-inducing one-liners that summed up the disappointment, disgust, and fears of those left-of-center.”

So much so, that should could almost call him a “witch”:

“[I]t is tempting for women, feminists, the LGBT community, people of color, and anyone existing within intersections of those groups to give in to our less compassionate, baser nature and join together in a rousing and merry chorus of ‘Ding-Ding! The Witch Is Dead!’”

This is an on-going theme on the Left, yet conservatives are supposed to be the heartless a____les who don’t view their opponents as real people.

It was my first exposure to pure liberal hate. Walking into a store in the mall, the young woman at the checkout was cursing because Hinckley’s bullet did not kill Reagan.

Only a thin veil keeps the Left from launching the next great flood of human blood.

Doesn’t matter. The left ALWAYS justifies their behavior with emotion. Emotion is difficult to trump, because you can’t argue that someone is legitimately feel some way. When conservatives justify their behavior with facts, they’re “heartless” and “automatons.”

“Coexist”, “Tolerance”, “Love”, “Peace”. All are one word catch phrases used by liberals. There’s no bigger hypocrisy than the liberal mind set. If you don’t agree with them, you’re trashed, mocked and celebrated when dead.

We’re all going to die some day. Then we’ll all get judged.

They are relentless and never let an opportunity pass when it serves their agenda. I just can’t see the Tea Party or Republicans using the same tactics and getting the same results - which is how - successful they have been at it changing the culture and group think.

In the Wizard of Oz, when the Wicked Wwitch died, the Munchkin coroner sang:

"As coroner I must aver
I've thoroghly examined her
And she's not only merely dead,
She's really most sincerely dead"

Unfortunately, more attention was paid to the Wicked Witch by the authorities upon her death than to Scalia on his.

A worthless person, a wicked man,
Walks with a perverse mouth;
He winks with his eyes,
He shuffles his feet,
He points with his fingers;
Perversity is in his heart,
He devises evil continually,
He sows discord.

These six things the Lord hates,
Yes, seven are an abomination to Him:
A proud look,
A lying tongue,
Hands that shed innocent blood,
A heart that devises wicked plans,
Feet that are swift in running to evil,
A false witness who speaks lies,
And one who sows discord among brethren.

- FROM PROVERBS 6

Funny how the Left has been turning that meme into a self-fulfilling prophecy. As they shall find out in the course of the next American Civil War and the Settling of Accounts.

Heck, that’s nothing to the world celebration that will occur following the long awaited death of Dorkbama the Muslim.
