I didn’t say that the other Justices were dumb or morons. I said that the ASSPRESS is writing one-line headlines and spinning for the benefit of people who are morons and too dumb to read beyond the headline or seek out the actual opinion.
Justice Gorsuch’s reasoning is completely different and distinct from that of Kagan and the libtard klan. You might disagree with him, but his reasoning is tied to the Constitution and is based on an original reading of the document.
Kagan’s approach is not.
The ASSPRESS looks only to the results, and people who want Justice Gorsuch to waive a wand and magically deport all immigrants are also looking to results.
This case dealt ONLY with the residual clause under 18 U.S.C. §16.
It did not deal with deporting illegals generally, nor did this decision have anything to do with any of the listed felony offenses outlined by Congress as qualifying Felonies.
Justice Gorsuch’s opinion is very clear that Congress could simply make ALL felony convictions qualify for expedited deportation. It just can’t have a vague residual catch all clause that might or might not apply to a given law.
Justice Scalia ruled exactly the same way in regards to the residual clause under 18 U.S.C. §924(e)(2)(B) in Johnson v. United States in 2015.
The language in the two sections of the USC was virtually identical.
Justice Anthony Kennedy would make the same argument when he sides with the court's liberal bloc and strikes down laws with a 5-4 vote, then publishes a concurrence and explains that he reached the same decision for DIFFERENT reasons than the Democrats on the court.
