Ms. Bond’s argument on appeal was that Congress did not have the constitutional power to use a chemical weapons treaty to address a matter of a sort routinely handled by state authorities.


I am not sure of the motive of Ms. Bond, but is it really wise to use the full weight and authorities of the Federal Government to go after an individual harassing another individual?

Ms. Bond (if guilty) should be punished, that is not the question. The question is do we really want the Federal Government to get involved in these routine day to day crimes? If so, where are the boundaries?

Mrs. Bond’s motive was: the other lady was pregnant with Mr. Bond’s child.
