The Law Is Dying because Morality Is Dying
American Thinker ^ | July 10, 2016 | Trevor Thomas

Posted on 07/10/2016 1:56:18 PM PDT by Kaslin

Tuesday, after FBI director James Comey spent about 15 minutes laying out the legal case against Hillary Clinton and then spent about three minutes declaring that he was going to ignore the evidence and recommend no legal action against Mrs. Clinton, TheBlaze's Matt Walsh declared that "The law is Dead."

Walsh wrote:

July 5, 2016. 11:15 a.m. One day after America's 240th birthday.

When historians conduct their autopsy on Lady Justice, that will be the time of death. That is the precise moment when Justice drew her last labored breath, cursed our ridiculous country and our hopelessly corrupt government, and collapsed. Sure, she'd been in bad shape for a while, but there was no surviving the final blow. When it is explicitly announced and made public that the wealthiest and most elite and most liberal are indeed above the law, the charade of "law" cannot continue. There is no law. We are living under the rule of men, not of law. We are subject to the whims of petty tyrants and bureaucrats. They are subject to no one on Earth.

I don't think Comey's presser heralds the end of law in the U.S., but he surely did put another nail in the coffin. Like the Supreme Court rulings on abortion and marriage, few should be surprised at this outcome. America has been on a long, ugly road when it comes to law and justice, reason and logic, morality and truth.

Two days prior to this year's Independence Day, noted Christian apologist Ravi Zacharias asked, "Whatever happened to the American Soul?" He continued:

Bull Sh!t

Morality is being teased apart from morality/culture.

It is not dying...it is being suppressed and attacked.

Morality is righteousness. It will survive.

July 5, 2016. 11:15 a.m. One day after America’s 240th birthday.

************************************

The death of the Republic occurred on Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009 when all of our political and judiciary officials decided to ignore the fact that the man sworn in as President was not a natural born citizen and ineligible to hold the office according to the Constitution

Ignore part, forfeit all.

It will go down in history as a total sell out of our justice system, the worst . Even worse that when the blacks let OJ Simpson get away with murder. I felt the same disgust.

Yes, the death of morality and ethics is leading to the destruction of our country, but most of our people are badly misinformed by the propaganda of the agenda driven media

The so called Low Information Voters are not so much uninformed as they are misinformed in the negative and destructive fashion possible.

All you hear is, “But CNN (or ABC , MSNBC, CBS ...ect ) so how can they be wrong and why would they lie?”

Very sad.

Coward Comey didn’t want to be the guy who torpedoed the Dem candidate for president but he’ll live FOREVER as the guy who spoke the Death Knell of our belief in LAW over men.

Morality is being refined...polished and refined.

It ain't going nowhere.

Righteousness is eternal.

The law is dying because it is selectively, unequally being applied, and also because some groups are special privileged and there should be no special,groups. No women, no minorities. Everyone totally equal under the law.

“to ignore the fact that the man sworn in as President”

How sure are we that he was actually sworn in? If you remember, Justice Roberts fumbled the public oath and later said that he swore in Obama again in private. Who did Obama swear allegiance to?

G-d’s law comes before man’s law. That’s where man has gone wrong.

I’ll put it back to the Clinton impeachment. Presented with undeniable evidence that the president had committed perjury the Democrats and some Republicans decided it was no big deal, and the majority of the public were fine with it. So why should Hillary be held accountable for her lies?

And to think it was all done because of the bad light that our little boy of a president would have been put in. They’re not interested in finding the emails because one of the participants in the scheme was none other than the little Kenyan Marxist.

“We may never know the answers.”

True. The victors will write the history.
