Next time, can my team please be the good guys?
I don't know, can you tell who the good guys are?
A lot of lawyers and smart people read this weblog, so can someone tell me why it is not illegal for the FBI, Federal Marshalls, and government prosecutors to break the law? I mean, it's not much of a law if those charged with upkeeping it are allowed to break it, now is it? Why should these people not be punished? Why should they not face jailtime? They violated the constiution. No one should be above the law.
I realize that post sounds rather bitter, but, with first outsourcing the torcher of the Canadian man to Syria for 10 mo, then the whole Guantanamo fiasco and now this, I'm beginning to feel like I'm in Communist Russia, and it's depressing. For years we've heard about these kinds of things from the conspiracy theory nuts, but now these stories aren't coming from shifty-eyed, unshaven men; they're coming from our newspapers.
