“Summary banishment on the whims of a so-called Elder Council is not justice.”
Well, apparently they think it is. And it probably is justice. It just isn’t due process according to our standards.
“That is Code Napoléon at work. If the sect is legally there, they ought to have some rights at least to be charged with a crime and to face justice. If not, then Guatemala is a failed state like their neighbors to the north.”
Or not. Maybe they just see nuisances as nuisances and actually do something about them.
It must suck to be in a cult.
Being relativistic about judicial standards is abandonment of moral standard, never mind any kind of leadership role.
Since they also think it’s OK to send hordes across Mexico to the US border, I take a dim view of Guatemalan so-called “justice”. Especially when it goes after what are arbitrarily termed “nuisances”.
