The laws of Florida, and of the United States of America, were changed. In a free state, in a free country, our masters in black robes would not be permitted to ignore that fact. If anything, the comparison of the U.S. government to the Imperial Japanese is weak. At least the Japanese had the excuse that they were involved in an all-consuming war. The government of a "free state, in a free country", in a time of relative peace and prosperity, stands idly by and permits the cold-blooded killing of an innocent woman for no reason whatsoever.

Worse than the Imperial Japanese? Off to a library with you, good sir.

I don't even know how best to address this patently hysterical post, other than to say that you are deeply misinformed by the likes of NewsMax and WND, and should branch out a bit. If you can't even think of your own lands as 'free states in a free country' then what legitimacy does the law hold for you anymore?

I think you're misinterpreting the actions (or lack thereof) of the branches and levels of our government. If you really think that they've become a band of fascist outlaws, then I don't know what to tell you, other than cut back on the Joseph Farah intake.

I don't know who Joseph Farah is. Is he related to that blonde who was on Charlie's Angels?

I stand by the comparison of the U.S. government to Imperial Japan. If we are talking about numbers of people killed, the Japanese win hands down. If we are talking about the rule of law being perverted to kill the innocent, irrespective of body count, it's a closer contest. One does not have to disregard the rule of law to come to this conclusion.

The "masters in black robes" comes from a dissenting opinion recently penned Antonin Scalia. I do not believe he is "hysterical" in his assessment of the current state of the balance of powers. Perhaps you have a more nuanced view than he has. God bless you.
