Security missing when it comes to justice system's greatest assest
Daily Herald ^ | March 7, 2005 | Chuck Goudie

My own thoughts are why should the taxpayers have to pay to put security systems into the homes of judges when they have the finacial withal to install them for themselves.

Maybe because of that inconvenient "equal protection of the law" thing.

Great! Why don't we install special things for judges, EVERY Federal, State and Local Official, Jurors in controversial cases, Bloggers in general and on and on. Don't think so.

Another solution from someone who thinks there is no cost to 'Security' and that public coffers are limitless. IMO He should work for the TSA.

Maybe we should pass a Constitutional Amendment saying that everyone can arm themselves. That way these judges, and the rest of us, could protect ourselves, our families, and our homes.

Right on. It's about time citizens learn the best protection is the right to protect themselves.

Would that it were so. The police are under no specific obligation to protect you individually, btw. So you can't sue them if they don't do their jobs. Most officers do their darndest in a tough situation IMHO, but it would be much better if the judges of this country had to make do JUST LIKE THE REST OF US and no special privileges for them. Then maybe they would have a better understanding of what the 2nd Amendment means.

I detect a singular lack of respect for our lords and masters. For Shame!
