That said - the ruling looks correct - burglary isn’t inherently “violent”...


My understanding would be that for “burglery” to become violent it would become “robbery”.

I guess the idea is that “violence” means violence to a person. i.e. you can blow up someone’s house to get to the safe. If nobody is home, it’s burglary and, therefore, not violent.

I have to say that it may not appear that way, but I agree with this decision. Laws MUST be precise. This is why I hate that most speed limits are not precisely enforced. In a perfect world, they would all be bumped by ten MPH and then precisely enforced.

Not only that, but the libtards are now using “words” as a premise for violence. Say the “wrong” (intolerable) things, and they act violently to counter. Do the “wrong” things, and they act violently again. This also supports Gorsuch in that these legal terms need to be better defined, rather then left to some liberal judge to interpret.
