I am not opposed to tightening up the language. Hopefully they will do so.

But, I don't like some judge acting all superior.

The fact is, rarely do these fears about laws come true. There may be vague language at the time, but the spirit of the law means a lot. Just because they technically "could" do something because of vague language doesn't mean they would or even try to do so.

Right. And "rarely" does an innocent man go down death row.

It's not even worth considering -- unless you're that innocent man. Or, someone concerned with the incremental march toward absolute statism.

So, you trust government never to abuse its power? Even if, say, Hillary Clinton was president?
