Scalia has Sicilian gesture for critics

United Press International - NewsTrack - Scalia has hand gesture for critics: "A Boston Herald reporter asked the 70-year-old conservative Roman Catholic if he faces much questioning over impartiality when it comes to issues separating church and state.

'You know what I say to those people?' Scalia replied, making the gesture and explaining 'That's Sicilian.'

The 20-year veteran of the high court was caught making the gesture by a photographer with The Pilot, the Archdiocese of Boston's newspaper.

'Don't publish that,' Scalia told the photographer, the Herald said.

He was attending a special mass for lawyers and politicians at Cathedral of the Holy Cross, and afterward was the keynote speaker at the Catholic Lawyers' Guild luncheon."
