Is that so? Do you believe a relatively peaceful society can function without laws?
one corrupt Judge can set precedent and it becomes law
Can you explain that and provide a few examples?
Mass. courts re-defined the word, marriage. It's now the law in Massa chew sets. Any sex can now legally contract with any sex to have sex. That's what marriage is now in Massa chew sets. Multiple partners and legalized circle jerks next. Coming up next will be no age restrictions followed by marriage between man and beast then marriage between animal-animal, animal-human, human-volvo or even human-roller skates, human-dolphins, humans-teddy bears. What's to prevent it? Absolutely nothing, now that the bench has proven its supremacy over the Constitution and common sense.
Not "one corrupt judge" as you asserted.
Nope, not if you really have to ask, that might set a precedent.
I suspected that would be the case.
That wasn't my assertion. But it makes no difference anyway. One judge is as good as Fifty-one percent of 1,000 judges.
If you want to play the devil's advocate, go ahead, but please choose something that's more relevant and arguable.
So what did you think of my posts 11 and 15? Anything you can agree with or worth commenting on, pro or con?
I apologize, it was itsahoot's assertion.
One judge is as good as Fifty-one percent of 1,000 judges.
Not if the one judge is in the 49 percent.
I agree that the Founding Fathers weren't perfect. They created a document with as much foresight as was possible at the time and under the circumstances.
Alternate valid interpretation:
The Founders were hesitant to have a standing army. They wanted the populace armed instead. They did grudgingly recognize that a country did in fact need a standing army. The 2nd Amendment’s preface acknowledges that a standing army (well regulated) is necessary, and that notwithstanding the people are still recognized as having a right to keep and bear arms. To wit, the presence of a standing army in no way precludes the people being armed.
