Discussion/Writing:
- What type of judicial review should be applied to cases involving statutes that discriminate against members of LGBT community? Why? Which did the court apply and why?
- How does language in Romer reflect the time period in which it was written?
- How does Scalia's opinion keep in line w/his judicial philosophy? Why does he disagree with the majority's conclusion?
- How does Scalia's opinion impact your opinion of him as a justice?
