Never give up - armchair speculation on law is a healthy and vigorious education, if daunting.
I used to hate law, until I started reading.
Heck, I was to busy with math to care.
Now I think it is fascinating.
And OMG, the distortions that are published - folks quote news articles that are pages long about the TX SC order, but can’t be bothered to read the 1/2 page order, itself.
Actually, it was not even an order.
The TX SC denied a petition per curiam for a writ of mandemus - which left the 3rd appeals court order standing.
Now, for fun, google “TX SC orders FLDS children returned”, or the like, and tell me which news rag does not describe it as an order.
The ignorance in this country is amazing.
Oh, I got rejuvenated when I went to the cemetery last weekend. They never gave up, nor will I. ;)
Except for the night.
I do too. My interest began when I realized that I kept hearing the term "Watergate" years ago without knowing to what it referred.
When I attempted to find out what it referred to, I was surprised to find myself looking at a grand conspiracy that eventually sent over sixty people to prison, most of them lawyers, and which brought about the resignation of one President who was also unjustifiably pardoned by his successor.
During the process, burglaries were committed, bribes paid, hush money delivered, and massive perjury committed.
In addition, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the President is not above the law and must surrender evidence in a criminal proceeding, which evidence showed irrefutable signs of tampering to erase 18 minutes.
It was an interesting time.
