    The most frightening thing about this video is that there are only 42 comments from the Public.

    I've always had the utmost respect for all the justices. It's perfectly reasonable to disagree with them, but unlike congress, The Supreme Court is run by extremely smart and (pardon the pun) judicious people. I frequently disagree with Alito and Scalia (may he rest in peace) in particular. But they regularly make me think twice and reconsider my position, and that is a sure sign that, even if you disagree, you can gain a lot from hearing them out.
    Plus, Stephen Breyer is a hilarious person. Watch the interview with him and Scalia. It's serious and intellectual, but also very funny.

    I think all the Justices do a remarkable job, of a job that is not at all easy. Justice Ginzburg and Sotomayer are my favs. Justice Scalia , Breyer and Kagan are Great!!! Justice Thomas is a riot. I now have a complete understanding of the Court I wish every citixen and lawyer did. Thanks

    I am very conservative in my beliefs but very liberal in what other people choose to believe, meaning that I don't care about their beliefs. With that being said, I really like Justice Kagen.

    I REALLY don't like her politics, but she does seem like a nice person. Everyone on the court, regardless of position on the issues, seems very genuine and caring.

    Amazing how Kagan tries to backtrack the courts decision to uphold Monsanto's claim on their second gen seeds. With Clarence fucking Thomas on the bench no less.
    Clearly she's aware of the perception, ha

    how does she get to supreme court having never been a judge. insane

      is not insane when you think about it the late Justice Scalia said it himself you don't need to be a lawyer or judge to be in the Supreme Court.

    Obviously, I grew up as a very good and nice and respectful person. So, everyone is gathered here? At a party which is human love, to wait for you all to write a paper? Cannot you think faster? Waiting for the American white smoke of voting in a new Pope? "Out of character" is that a phrase you understand?

    I don't think Judges should do appearances.
    It looks obvious.
