Justice Scalia was the author, with the support of three liberal Justices, of the 5-4 decision declaring the sale of extremely violent [[video games]] to children to be a right of free speech under the [[First Amendment]], which no law can limit.  He is more likely than Justices Alito or Thomas to join [[liberal]] Justices in a non-[[conservative]] ruling, and vice-versa.  In one of the biggest cases of the 2013-2014 Term, ''Harris v. Quinn'', Justice Scalia's hostile questioning of the conservative side at oral argument implied that he was the least willing among conservatives to support a decision to end mandatory membership dues for public sector unions, which would have reduced liberal political power enormously.  Scalia also agrees with liberals in arguing that the Constitution is somehow too difficult to amend.
