No, it is not how our system works. We have a republic, not a majority-rules democracy, and the U.S. Constitution is the rule of law, not what 9 black-robed elitists say it is.
I believe in the Constitution. I take our rights very seriously. I couldn't care less whether "...more people believe it's OK for the state to steal someone's home, than people who think it's wrong." Completely irrelevant.
Claire Wolfe is absolutely correct.
No, that's not what I meant - I'm saying each State can trump these nutty liberal judges. Florida has a law on the books that forbids what these judges say is OK, and that law stands. Until we can get judges who hold up the law rather than making the law, we're stuck with roundabout patches. But patches work. And if it matters, get your state to write a law until we can get more conservative judges in the SC.
Claire Wolfe is a revolutionary and we're just not there. It's not perception that matters, it's reality that matters. And as long as we can trump these nutty judges with state laws the system works. We can vote the liberals out, and by doing that get a more conservative court. That's our way. And it might not be the best way, but it's better than anything else the world offers.
