Explain to me what your statement ...
"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?"

... means.
Are you naive enough to believe there are those on the Supreme Court who are not making decisions on Europian laws and morays?
"Consideration does not mean"?
Exaggerations? Derivations?
I don't think so.
I am completely aware of your willingness to excuse the obvious.
Perhaps some definitions would help you understand. "Consider" means "examine or to study to take into account or to think carefully" "base" means "foundation, the fundamental ingredient, premise, basis, ground" Has it escaped you that these definitions are NOT the same?
And NO I do not believe any on the Court is basing decisions on European law or Nigerian either. There is no need for them to do so. In the Death Penalty issue there are states within the USA which do not allow underage killers to be put to death. Why would a Justice need to support their agreement on any law from across the pond?
To claim these decisions are based upon other countries laws is a wild exaggeration.
