Scalia's a bitch. The one-dimensional view of people with mental illness as "happy, gentle folks" is just as offensive as the oft-heard claims they are all violent, raving schizophrenics. I don't disagree with the claim that someone with mental retardation could premeditatedly murder someone... but is it with the same understanding of what that really means? I certainly doubt it.
