That was too easy. Like mice to the cheese.

I doubt you've ever tried a case or you wouldn't have allowed yourself to be baited like that. Cross-X 101.

Don't get me wrong- I do believe in justice and equity, as I believe in the spirit of the law, but it's unlikely I would have used them the way I did in the kind of policy debate we've been having unless I wanted to provoke a reaction- like the one I just got.

Your vision of our legal system (aside from being practically untanable) invokes a nightmare- a technocratic dystopia divorced from humanity- one where where concepts like mercy, compassion- and yes, justice and equity- have no meaning. A place where Magaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale could easily become a reality.

I am curious about one thing, though. Were you wronged in some way? What is the source of your antipathy toward judges? Your posts just seethe with enmity, which in my experience, doesn't come from book learning.
