Legal education during the time of the Founders consisted of examining and understanding law from all of Europe. Montesque, Grotius, Roman law, etc. This is not new. "Consideration" does not mean the decision was BASED on other laws merely that it was examined for relevence, compatibility etc. Besides what commonality is there in the laws of Italy and Nigeria?
Nice try, but no sale.
We are are all aware of the roots of the Founding Fathers.
Your continual excuse that decisions today (note the key word?) "does not mean the decision was based on other laws merely that it was examined for relevence" is growing old.
Justice Antonin Scalia criticized this use of foreign precedents. He even went so far as to read his dissent from the bench.
I think Justice Scalia stated it best when he said ...
"The court's discussion of these foreign views (ignoring, of course, the many countries that have retained criminal prohibitions on sodomy) is . . . meaningless dicta. Dangerous dicta, however, since this court . . . should not impose foreign moods, fads, or fashions on Americans."
You, of course, like myself, have the right to believe whatever you like.
Should you wish to ask the Europians (you know, those unwashed from Europa) permission on how to live your life, you go right ahead.
I do not live my life by others codes. I am vehemently (as were our Founding Fathers) against European interference in our affairs. And I am a strict nationalist.
Globalistst be damned!
