Scalia: Voting Rights Act Is A ‘Perpetuation Of Racial Entitlement’ Justice Antonin Scalia pointed out that an overwhelming number of lawmakers in both parties had voted to reauthorize the law in 1970, 1975, 1982 and 2006. Scalia argued that the nearly-unanimous reauthorizations proved that lawmakers were scared to be seen voting against discrimination, calling it “a phenomenon that is called perpetuation of racial entitlement.” Yeah....how dare those people of color..........thinking that they are entitled to vote. What nonsense. The lawmakers voted to reauthorize the law four times, not because that was the will of the people they represent, but only because they were scared.
