Wouldn't it be nice to have the ability to decide whether or not you wanted legal action taken against you? Unbeknownst to most people, the States and their employees (Governor, Lt. Governor, Sec. of State, etc.) as well as most federal officers (President, Congress and Supreme Court, which to respond to my Google+ comment yes it is odd for such a liberal judge to issue a stay outide of her power, but she also receives a large contribution from the mormons and the Supreme Court is no stranger to seizing unlawful and unethical power. As well as the Cabinet of states and the President which can claim sovereignty) all have this ability as well as immunity from all "minor" offenses (misdemeanors, which include Notary fraud and bribes under $5000). Justices of our Supreme Court can even claim more power (the Supreme Court's power is specifically enumerated in he Constitution but since Marbury v. Madison they have been adding on powers under the guise of "Judicial Review") AND has the ability to hold in contempt anyone who disagrees with them. They have little interest in justice (see Snyder v. Phelps and listen to the arguments of the justices as well as the announcement of their opinion and you can see their bigotry and complete ignorance of jurisprudence) and often times vote either to appease the public (DOMA ruling came only after a Gallup poll that said 73% of approved of repealing it) or to put themselves in the limelight because they know people forget about them (Snyder v. Phelps was issued not in the interest of protecting free speech, it was issued because Westboro Baptist "Church" was constantly in the news for their atrocious and repugnant behavior as well as Ms. Phelps complete moronic arguments in the Arizona courts). Congress passes law that benefit their pocket books and the President has no courage to challenge any of it. Yet we, as Americans, allow them to continue their behavior and give them infinite "Get Out Of Jail Free" cards with not one qualm. We refuse to hold them accountable (STILL doing the Electoral College and not direct vote), and live in fear of criticizing them or even being civilly disobedient.
What do you think? Should Sovereignty still exist and if so why? Should the people hold everyone in office accountable to their oath to defend the Constitution and represent the will of the people or are things working out just fine as they are? What do you think?
A NOTE WESTBORO BAPTIST CHURCH IS NOT PART OF ANY BAPTIST DENOMINATION AND HAS BEEN DENOUNCED BY ALL OF THEM FOR THEIR MESSAGE OF HATE AND IGNORANCE. THEIR ACTIONS (PRIMARILY PROTESTS AND SOCIAL ACTIVITIES), IF EVALUATED BY THE IRS WOULD PROBABLY CHANGE THEM FROM A 501(c)3 (CHURCHES, RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS, ETC) to a 503(b) (SOCIAL CLUBS, AND SOCIAL ORGANIZATIONS). THEIR STATUS AS A CHURCH IS DUE TO MS. SNYDER (THEIR "ATTORNEY" WHO HAS NUMEROUS BAR COMPLAINTS FOR UNETHICAL BEHAVIOR).
