Sorry but I have to disagree. You are either a believer in the “rule of law” or you are not. Regardless of how ridiculous, unconstitutional or dangerous a law is in your mind it must be followed until such time as it becomes not law.
We can hardly chastise the other side for failing to follow or enforce the laws on the books when we ourselves are willing to follow suit when confronted with a particular law we disagree with.
I disagree .
So if a law is passed that says “round up the Christians and put them in cattle cars for the gas chambers” we should enforce said law?
Blackstone disagrees with you by the way.
“[The law of nature] being coeval with mankind and dictated by God Himself, is of course superior in obligation to any other. It is binding over all the globe in all countries, and at all times: no human laws are of any validity, if contrary to this; and such of them as are valid derive all their force, and all their authority, mediately or immediately, from this original.”
Good to know that the day a law is passed requiring all of us to get chipped and turn in our guns you’ll be a compliant sheep.
I hear what you're saying but have to disagree with you here. The US Constitution is the Supreme Law of the Land and "...shall not be infringed" is pretty clear.
Should Rosa Parks have shuffled off to the back of the bus because it was "the rule of law"?
