Anyone who believes there's a Constitutional issue engaged here, or any issue with statutory law, is either delusional or trying to attract attention.<br /><br />In view of such an absurd claim, calling Judge Robarts a "so-called judge" is perfectly apt, if a little coarse. <br /><br />It was wise of the R-S journalist, Victoria Addison, to avoid the legal angle and its predictable political overreach. The protest itself, which the overreach will only injure, is well-founded on a cultural basis alone. <br />unheimlichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00204285837938988668noreply@blogger.com
