If you defy the courts and get away with it, our whole constitutional system breaks down.

Give me a break. No it does not. It didn't break down when the courts were defied by our forefathers before and it isn't going to now. The courts have no legislative power and they are legislating from the bench. The system is broken as is. What are you doing about it?! Where are the petitions for Impeachment due to violation of the separation of powers? If Congress ruled tomorrow that blacks aren't due the rights of whites, would you abide by such a proclamation and or law? Would you lick your wounds and work the system? I wouldn't. I'd stand up to it because it's wrong. If you haven't the moral fiber or courage to stand up to it, then you deal with your cowardice but don't lecture me about playing the system.

I'm not advocating revolution. If one is required I think those capable of doing so will invoke the declaration and stand on it. But Luther didn't secure his rights as a Black man in America by saying please. He got them by pointing to the constitution and saying NOW! Just as our forefathers did. This isn't something that happened over night - it's taken years of liberal judges legislating from the bench to get us to this point and it's gone unchallenged. You tell me how the system has worked to fix it when it just continues getting worse. At some point people have to stand up and say no more. The system be damned. If the system is broke it doesn't get fixed by playing it. You're approach is to keep sticking quarters into the broken coke machine hoping that a cold can will drop when it didn't for the past 10 bucks you put in. Fix the coke machine first, then put the money in. Think!
