From what I can see, he's another strict constructionist male with religious underpinnings. Like Alito, Roberts and Thomas, one from the Republican production line who will vote more-or-less in lockstep on abortion, gun rights, voting rights and everything else.

I believe that the law must be considered in its context. Context offers perspective. If you decide to be strict and inflexible in your understanding, then you will end up making unjust decisions. The law often requires a judge's thoughtful interpretation of the text of a law.

Gorsuch seems like a nice enough person. But Merrick Garland was a more moderate choice.
