Sorry pal, if people are truly free we can 't submit to any tyranny.

Sorry pal, we don't live in an anarchy. You don't get to pick and choose what laws you'll obey. You'll obey them all, or pay the consequences.

In this case, the law was the court order - failing to obey that was contempt of court. She had due process, the opportunity to contest that provision of the order, and either she didn't or she failed. At that point, she had to suck it up and live under the law and she failed to do so.

Create ENOUGH laws and we will all be criminals. The food Nazi's are coming next. How about this for a senerio..our food is already coded, we now have self checkouts based on weight ect. Just add another little scale for the one purchasing and YOUR weight determines what items the checkout will ALLOW you to purchase or you are taxed more for the items you shouldn't be allowed to eat. Think not? We are not that far from it.

I am truly thankful that our Founders didn't have the same attitude that you have. If they did, we would still have a monarchy!

Love your tagline; hate your take on the law.

The law was made for man, not man for the law.

A bad law has no claim on our obedience.
