it seems to me that every person with a working brain in his or her head has to ask, just why did antonin scalia warn a law school audience about the prospects of concentration camps in the united states during times of conflict?
i would remind you that the united states is not now, nor likely anytime soon, to be engaged in war with a foreign nation, especially under circumstances requiring the shipment of prisoners to the united states for incarceration.
i would remind you that serious & sober minded persons discuss openly the likelihood of insurrection mounted against the current u.s. regime to prevent it from trampling upon our ancient and revered rights, privileges and prerogatives as wrested by arms from english sovereigns.
for whom, then, would such camps be intended?
it seems to me, therefore, quite likely that antonin scalia has paid more than passing attention to such concerns, and within the context of those concerns, feels it likely that the u.s. government, whether led by obama or a like minded successor, will resort to imprisoning its citizens as a way of maintaining its rule, and imposing "order" on the body politic.
in other words, antonin scalia thinks it likely that the left will imprison the right in order to impose and maintain its rule. what, the right, without control of the necessary and sufficient apparatus, is going to imprison the left?
under the circumstances, who does what to whom?
if you feel my "logic" reasonable, that should give you reasonable pause to consider this, and to consider your reaction to such a notion. and, to consider quite deeply, what you would do should this ever come to pass.

p.s. in the meantime, ... , buy guns, buy ammo, become proficient in the use of the same. maintain a jealous regard for your right, privilege and prerogative under the anglo-saxon ways, and be ready, willing, able and eager to defend those rights up to and including the use of arms if they are threatened.
like the boy scouts, be prepared.
