No one is allowed to self-decide what the law means. That leads to anarchy.

Or it leads to change, reform, or revolution or maybe a 21st century renaissance if you will. It does not necessarily have to lead to anarchy. You overlook one simple fact: the People have to accept their government if it is to have any precedence in their lives, unless you advocate totalitarianism?

Do we get to rule the galaxy at Lawdog and Shoonra's side if we embrace the dark side of the Force!? ;-)

NO!

Hey! I thought it was an appropriate question, after viewing all the Sith mind tricks posted by Lawdog.......

No one can self-determine the law, it leads to anarchy!!!!


Reality is this, politicians and the legal system self determine and police their own and are not subject to the ones who supposedly possess all political power. Sad thing is, in their minds this is the way things are supposed to be.

What we are seeing today is a variation of a theme from the Middle Ages being replayed. Welcome back feudalism!

Why would I (or anyone else for that matter) take advice in courts at law from attorners trained ONLY in how courts in equity work ?

???

Statute-puppy, I'm curious. What is your definition of a republic?

[Lawdog]

I'd answer this question, but I'm not an "attorner," whatever that is.
