Supreme Court Concerns Over Larry Flynt's Conduct
Alan Isaacman Larry, thousands of people petition the Supreme Court, okay? Thousands.
Larry Flynt Yeah, and our case is as good as any.
Alan Isaacman Our case is better than most, you're missing my point, and that is they will never pick you. Because you're a nightmare. They're afraid if they let you in there, you're gonna wear a diaper, or throw oranges at the justices, and they should be, Larry, because in all the times you've gone to the court asking for help, you've never once demonstrated any respect for its institutions and procedures.
