An aside: If you're cheering the death of someone solely on ideological grounds, you need some help. He has a family, kids, friends, etc. Scalia is a person, not a political prop, be respectful.

This. Even if it's just trolling... too much, guys.

Any speculation as to who Obama will nominate?

The two names I've seen on Atlas are Merrick B. Garland and Sri Srinivasan.

Rachel Maddow just named Jeh Johnson.

Someone on the forum also mentioned Brian Sandoval.

Only on atlas people would call this monster an FF.

Only people on Atlas would cheer his death.

Let me direct you to Facebook or Twitter.

Then only people on the internet would cheer his death.

If you want to have some fun, look at the comments on FOX News and Breitbart. They seem to completely seriously believe that Obama murdered Scalia.

Tell us that you are pulling our leg.
You cant be serious ?

I'm 100% serious. It's not all of them, but quite a few of them.

Wow !
If you (or anyone) have a video link to this, I would love to see (and laugh at) it.

I don't mean an actual part of FOX News, I mean a lot of the commenters seem to think so.

They're basically Freepers. It's entertaining to read.
