No not suggesting or recommending anything at all... So much for a strong 'sanctity of life' stance. You are clearly stating in the second sentence you could condone the death of a gentleman that has done nothing to you or your family. What should the father do? Take the law into his own hands?
Of course I've seen worse said about this poor judge. He either rules by the rule of law, as 'conservatives' demand, or he is an activist judge and legislates from the bench, which 'conservatives' rail against. The poor man has been kicked out of his church and ostracized by the community. What in the heck did you want him to do? Create precedent and overturn centuries of common law, not to mention the absolute strain this whining to the national government has put on the Constitution. I really hope when this is said and done, whatever happens, Republicans realize the vitriol they have stated these past few days against those conservatives that have an opinion different from theirs and some of the absolutely idiotic things they've spouted in the current rush of emotions.
"What in the heck did you want him to do? Create precedent and overturn centuries of common law............?"
"Centuries of Common Law" prohibited cohabitation by a man and a woman if either one was already married -it was called bigamy..the children bastards and illegitimate.
duh!
The era of sociopathology is upon us without a law being passed; it is - pick your own rules to live by and to hell with society.
I am a Vietnam combat vet with a disabled daughter. I have already killed and been prepared to die for things far less dear to me than my children. I would not stand by and allow my child to be starved to death by a philandering husband or any government officer.
I thank God that I am not in Mr. Schindlers position, but I would willingly go to my judgement before Him in the knowledge that I had acted per His wishes.
The Catholic Catechism, Section 2, Article 5, 2265
"Legitimate defense can be not only a right but a grave duty for one who is responsible for the lives of others. The defense of the common good requires that an unjust aggressor be rendered unable to cause harm. For this reason, those who legitimately hold authority also have the right to use arms to repel aggressors against the civil community entrusted to their responsibility."
