nothing could be done.

Not until the PC scales fall from our eyes, as you've said.

Meanwhile, NPR reports that there are LAPD patrol cars outside every mosque in LA, for THEIR protection.

As promised, the quote from Jefferson in his memoirs concerning the imposition of de facto martial law in the city of New Orleans by Gen James Wilkinson, without getting approval of the legislature or the general in charge of New Orleans, in an attempt to forestall any infiltration by supporters of Aaron Burr, whose "army" was a potential threat to New Orleans.

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest.

The laws of necessity, of self preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation.

To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, and property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the ends to the means."

...General Wilkinson's need to defeat the threat posed by Burr "constituted a law of necessity and self preservation, rendered the salus populi (Safety of the People) supreme over the written law."
