Hello.

Appellate courts can and do get things wrong all the time.

[Ben Ficklin]

It's not the court.

The GOP congress put mandatory sentencing in place.

Right. So now we have appoached the stage where the trial court got it wrong, and the Appelate Court got it wrong. We will have to wait and see if the Supreme Court gets it wrong.

The opinion is here, for those so inclined. For those who are responding to the WND headline, have fun.
