Ok. So it's the parents' fault? Then tell me, if my parents mess up, will I be placed on a whipping post one day and tortured? And will my friend be lynched? I don't think so.

If they are acting as your guardians, or trying to, and screw up, you get the dirty end of the stick. Just as if you were competent and went into court yourself. If you pick a bad lawyer or mouth off wrong on the stand you can lose everything, including your life.

The government has tremendous authority to stop this, and I'm having trouble thinking that mass insurrection is necessary to protect this lady's inalianable rights.

The Government doesn't have the authority to just Bogart the Judicial system, and that's a good thing, otherwise, it would be powerful enough to do whatever it wanted to anyone, any time.

If that is what is required, watch out. People WILL do it and are beginning to already.

Lots of people have lots of mouth, but very few are ready to actually be shot down in the streets for some woman they never actually knew who is already dead when the answer is just to change the State laws of Flori-duh.

And if they are ready, the vast majority of Americans think she should die, and all but a handful of American Troops will follow lawful orders if necessary and put down any 'insurection' with utmost brutality.

Grow up.

That is where impeachment comes in. Clinton dared us to impeach him when he did very very sleazy 'bogarts'. Our nation survived. I call it 'expediency'. Do you think George Washington or Old Hickory or Thomas Jefferson would have stood by idly? I don't.
