I am far from ignorant. In fact, I'm quite certain I am far more educated than you. I enjoy debating FReepers on a variety of issues but when one makes it personal as you have I call it a day.

Good luck in your quest for anarchy.

Being ignorant of how the legal system of this country works has nothing to do with your level of education (unless you have a law degree in which case you should be disbarred). In any case you entirely misread me, I’m not on a quest for anarchy but quite the opposite. Unconstitutional laws are tyranny and jury nullification (as acknowledged by the supreme court) is the last defense against an out of control government. Juries traditionally judged both the crime and the law and was meant to keep the government from unjustly oppressing the people.

We have so many laws that are applied in such unjust ways that people have started to develop a contempt for both the law and those that enforce the laws. And THAT is what eventually will result in anarchy. Laws should be few, fair and justly applied, otherwise they will be used by the rich and powerful to oppress the poor and those not in positions of power.
