I think this case may turn out to be the legal system's 9/11. Before 9/11, the conventional wisdom was to cooperate with hijackers, do what they say, and at the end of the day everyone will be OK.

But 9/11 showed us that a hijacking is a "kill or be killed" situation.

I'm not trying to equate judges with terrorists. I'm just pointing out that the only reason the courts have any power at all is because we voluntarily cooperate with them.

Yes. The current laws and their judicial interpretations pose a very real threat to American lives.
