For most of my life, the Supreme Court justices have been on that list. Then I read the article saying that Justice Neil Gorsuch won\u2019t wear a mask. He was referred to as \u201cconservative;\u201d instead, I would say \u201cstupid\u201d is more accurate. Worse than that, this justice of the Supreme Court doesn\u2019t understand what \u201claw\u201d means. We have always given up some freedoms for the good of society. I can\u2019t drive 100 mph on the Thruway; I give up that freedom for the safety of others. At the same time, I increase my own safety. Same for the mask: it tries to protect others and it also tries to protect the wearer. But Gorsuch doesn\u2019t get that, so I think the \u201cstupid\u201d label is appropriate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"pu-email-form-opinion-email-article\">\n<div class=\"text-center\">\n<p class=\"email-desc\">Get opinion pieces, letters and editorials sent directly to your inbox weekly!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/buffalonews.com\/opinion\/letters\/letter-gorsuch-s-stubborn-behavior-does-not-bode-well-for-justice\/article_fb16e50c-7a02-11ec-aebf-dbc47d0bcb52.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] As times seem to get worse, we really want to have some individuals and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":28000,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-27999","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cj-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cjstudents.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27999","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cjstudents.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cjstudents.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cjstudents.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cjstudents.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27999"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cjstudents.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27999\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28001,"href":"https:\/\/cjstudents.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27999\/revisions\/28001"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cjstudents.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28000"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cjstudents.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27999"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cjstudents.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27999"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cjstudents.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27999"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
