Jefferson On Judges
Kim Weissman
"…the opinion which gives to the judges the right to decide what
laws are constitutional and what not, not only for themselves in their
own sphere of action but for the Legislature and Executive also in their
spheres, would make the Judiciary a despotic branch" —Thomas Jefferson |

Schumerism
Brian C. Anderson
The New York senator’s view that there’s no difference between law
and politics is at the heart of the judicial crisis. Extremist and
utterly contrary to the spirit of the Constitution, Schumerism promises
to wreak incalculable damage to our political fabric as the battle for
control of the nation’s courts widens. |

The Legal System Is Now Our
Enemy
Dennis Prager
I have come to fear almost everything having to do with law. Though
there are many fine people in the legal profession, and though law is
necessary to protect society from descending into chaos, I now fear the
legal profession more than I do Islamic terror. |

That Ten Commandments Case
Michael Novak
Calling the attention of the public to the Judeo-Christian conception of God's
sovereignty, which grounds the principle of religious liberty, is not necessarily the same
as 'establishing' the Jewish or Christian religions. |

Accursed Deodands!
Bob Wallace
The concept of the deodand partly explains the destruction of the World Trade Center.
Bring down these "evil objects," get some revenge, and then people in foreign
countries dance in the streets to express their glee and satisfaction. |

Litigation:
The death of democracy
Malcolm Wallop
With the assistance and backing of trial lawyers, small and extreme groups are
finding it increasingly easy to bypass and subvert the democratic process and impose their
agenda on the rest of society by abusing litigation and manipulating the courts. |

A Judiciary Independent of the Nation
Kim Weissman
Can it really be true that the Founders of this nation, dedicated as they were to
individual liberty and self government, threw off the shackles of King George and then
intentionally re-enslaved themselves to a new group of unaccountable kings called judges? |

ABA's
Liberal Bias Exposed in Study
"Controlling for credentials, Clinton nominees have more
than 10 times better odds of getting a unanimous well-qualified rating than
similarly credentialed Bush appointees. Just being nominated by Clinton instead of Bush is
a stronger positive variable than any other credential or than all other credentials put
together." |

Constitutional Propaganda
No law allows the government to appeal or overturn a jury acquittal,
nor for any juror to be questioned by authorities, or charged or punished in any way for
voting to acquit. |

So Sue Them, Sue Them
When governments use the judiciary to recover "damages," the
courts intrude on the regulatory and revenue responsibilities of legislatures. |

Are you shirking your duty
to help keep America free?
Be wary of any attempt to propagandize concepts and words which the
founders considered vital to instruct us about our freedoms and the tools necessary to
preserve them, turning them into 'hate speech' terms of scorn and derision. |

Landmark Ruling Bars Racial
Preferences
"The high court has made it crystal clear that government
agencies in California cannot get away with racial preferences and quotas by
deceptively calling them 'outreach'," ... "This decision removes the last
remaining excuse for public agencies to ignore the will of the people." |

Destroying
the Rule of Law
Most Americans, in their ignorance and laziness, have become
indifferent to the rule of law. If such indifference continues the tyranny and criminality
of the Clinton years will pale in comparison to the destruction of freedom that is yet to
come. |

The snows of winter will flee away, the ice will vanish, and the
annual miracle of the years will awaken and come to pass, but you won't be there. |

The Ominous Growth of Paramilitarism
in American Police Departments
State and local police departments are increasingly accepting the
military as a model for their behavior and outlook. The sharing of training and technology
is producing a shared mindset. |

Handbook - A Citizens Guide to Jury Duty

Citizen's
Rule Book – The Jury Handbook
Your vote of NOT GUILTY must be respected by all other members of the
JURY - it is the RIGHT and the DUTY of a JUROR to Never, Never, NEVER yield his or her
sacred vote - for you are not there as a fool, merely to agree with the majority, but as
an officer of the court and a qualified judge in your own right. |

They're not subject to majority vote
Vin Suprynowicz on jury selection
The randomly selected jury has a collective wisdom greater than its parts. It is not a
perfect system, but it's the best one ever found, and more importantly it's the one we're
guaranteed. |
