    Well with the new precedent set with gay marriage, new federal doors are about to be opened far and wide. This one definitely isn't over with.
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    My Feedback

    Only the doors they want opened. The legal education system has been corrupted to ignore plain language or make up stuff that never existed when it suits them. I see the recent rulings on Obamacare and homosexual marriage as a return to ruling the way they want rather than following the actual text and precedent.

    This can't be emphasized enough. We are no longer a Constitutional Republic, we are now an Administrative/Bureaucratic state under a Judicial Oligarchy.

    "The Law" is no longer beholden to the Constitution, it is no longer "immutable". It can be twisted and interpreted any way that those in power want it to be at any given moment (and this includes maintaining conflicting interpretations at the same time with no problem).
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    "Everything the State says is a lie, and everything it has it has stolen.
    -Friedrich Nietzsche

    "Every time something really bad happens, people cry out for safety, and the government answers by taking rights away from good people."

    Both of you are right on.

    Depressing, but I think you are correct.
