Do we really need to do this.

Whether you liked or disliked Justice Scalia, his passing should not be used as a reason to jump on the band wagon.

Let the man rest in peace, at least until after the funeral.

Let's go for at least two weeks of silence on the subject. Can we do that, please.

Although I have avoided political banter, we will most probably hear much political banter in the near future, but now is only a period of mourning.

Thank you, Chuck. I agree completely!

Guys, how about we let the politics be set aside,
at least until Justice Scalia is laid to rest.

If only that were possible. Obama has already said he will appoint a successor.

The problem I was trying to prevent, was the chance this thread could be shut off,
like almost ALL political threads here, are.

Can we at let this rest, until Justice Scalia rests?

Sorry Dusty, didn't see this, before I posted my previous.

Oh, I agree 100% Except we should continue to talk about the
passing of a decent man.

There is no doubt in my mind that he is indeed at peace!

I am sorry for his family, and his friends. I do believe that many of the photos that I have seen of him through the years, he has almost always had a smile on his face. As I began to hear folks speak of him, he found humor in many places and that's commendable.

I am trying to turn over a new leaf here, especially since I did use Community for Political things that the Admin killed. So with that said I agree with all said, lets lay it a week and then as I guess most here are conservatives, and if so, lets respect the Liberals here, and vice a versa.
Once a very wise man told me, at your work place dont talk religion, politics, and who you sleep with.
