(11,464 posts)George Wallace was a governor who was trumped by the US Supreme Court and the President.
So a higher authority still was the sane one.
The policeman rescusing a girl is doing the correct thing.
The CORRUPT cop should be fired and only good policemen should be hired with proper training.
Corruption happens everywhere.
Yesterday was an anniversary of Kent State, but it seems an anarchist was the one who gave the call to shoot and not the authority.
No system is perfect, but anarchy loses every single time.
Vigilantism loses every single time (like the awipes on Danzinger Bridge, and Zimmerman).
V for Vengence was a rightwing extremist and the real life was a rightwing terrorist who killed.
The people at Waco killed authority and then blew themselves up.
Tim McCoward believed in anarchistic conspiracy theories and killed innocent kids
I can't think of any case where it isn't better to go with authority every single time, EVEN IF
a small percentage turns out wrong.
BTW-if the SCOTUS had stuck with their 7 to 2 FIRST decision to send it back to Florida for final word, no one would be complaining.
It was only a decision one doesn't like here, however, if Gore won, they wouldn't like it.
The court itself did not break the law. They decided and they are the top authority and have the final word.
In reality 2000 happened because of anarchy and traitorism in Ralph Nader.
Each side plays to win. Nader played to be the court jester with zero chances of winning.
It's like a baseball umpire. 99% of the time they are correct. 1% they make an error.
People only care about the error.
Same with the TSA at the airport. Maybe a billion people go through the airport, 5 make a complaint, all 5 coincidentally having an agenda and a camera.
Another 9-11 hasn't happened from airplanes in the USA leaving, I don't mind TSA at all.
I don't mind cameras.
I do mind vigilantes and hot heads like this person killing another because they don't like authority.
imho don't mind if people disagree or agree.This isn't facebook where only those one lets in can get to play. It also isn't a game.
BTW, irony would be if the Robert Redford movie about an underground terrorist from the older days was the cause of the FBI naming who they did to their top 10 list.
