So you're sort of an F. Lee Bailey meets Pontius Pilate kind of guy.
I guess I'm more of a results-oriented person.
The outcome to me is more important than the process.
I wouldn't care if a big stork came down and swept her away from MRS, Felos and Schiavo.
Especially if that big stork was a C-130 taking her to a place where she would be protected from these killers and their dispassionate supporters.

That's not going to happen.

That process is called the law, and what you are suggesting is utter anarchy. Why not do away with all laws why we are at it? That's exactly the Nazis DID do. We may not agree with the law, we may not like the law, but we work within the system to change the law. We don't take the law into our own hands. If that's the case, then let's legalize lynchings. Anyone we don't like, just hang them.

And don't give me the argument that that's what the courts have done. I have spent much of this morning reading and rereading this ruling. I don't like the outcome, but I think Whitmore ruled the only way he could, and I believe he shows exactly why he did.

Let's not exchange one terrible situation for another.
