"ummm.....HELLO? A computerized database, is not the SAME as the INTERNET! One does not need to access the Internet, to access one's DATABASE! That is DIFFERENT!"

To "access one's DATABASE"? Whose database? What the devil are you talking about?

I use the internet to access databases (in both the technical and colloquial sense) all the time. I use the internet to access Westlaw and Lexis too. Most everybody does.

Are you under the impression that there is some electronic vehicle other than the internet that courts, governmental agencies, legislatures (including the U.S. congress), law libraries, law schools, law reviews, law journals, arbitration bodies, securities exchanges, etc., etc. post their information to? If you are suggesting that, might I ask what this mysterious electronic vehicle is? I'd really like to know.

"But that isn't what Kennedy utilized!"

Ok, what did he "utilize"? And while you're at it, maybe you can explain why whatever he "utilized" for research, even if it was the internet, was so outrageous?

"Oh and why the avoidance in his use of seeking INTERNATIONAL LAW to support his CRIME?"

His crime? My word. He referenced international norms regarding execution of juveniles in the process of deciding the case before him under U.S. law. I frankly don't see the purpose in that, and question whether international norms should have any bearing on U.S. death penalty cases, but that's called disagreement. People who disagree with you haven't committed a "crime" for crying out loud.

To bypass the US CONSTITUTION, in favor of utilizing and leaning on INTERNATIONAL LAW, to rule on a US SUPREME COURT case, is a CRIME in my book!

I don't live over seas, do you? I EXPECT American Judges, to utilize AMERICAN LAW when deciding AMERICAN court cases!

As for the INTERNET? Again, an inhouse data base, is quite different than accessing a VULNERABLE Internet!

Can you say with 100% certainty that all info on the Internet is 100% accurate and 100% safe?
