11. I don't think the question is how easy it is to get addicted to painkillers
but the idea of a drug addict ruling on questions of law while he is delusional is quite scary. Not to mention his having a say on the appeals of people convicted for drug related crimes is beyond the pale.

I sympathize with anyone who faces addictions of any sort but I don't want them having any say over my life or that of my family or that of any of my fellow citizens. Roaming around in his pajamas? Rambling incoherent opinions? Facts hidden from the public during confirmation hearings? That just corrupts the entire court.
