He’s not saying don’t take extreme action. He’s just saying to fairly recognize what is extreme versus what is not. Everyone needs to have that filter or things go sideways.

Shooting someone in self defense is extreme by anyone’s measure - it’s taking a life and there is no more severe an action. If I shoot someone in self defense I will be called upon to account for my actions because they are outside the norms of typical human interaction in society. But under the right conditions both under Natural law principles, morals, and our legal system it’s justified to kill another. Perhaps even required, dare I say.

Declaring war is along the same vein.

The Declaration of Independence was quite literally a list of grievances and reasons why extreme actions (a revolutionary war for independence and self governance) called for by the Founding Fathers were justified. It’s the lead-in sentence. It’s there to demonstrate to others why their cause is legitimate and such radical measures (war) had to be taken and are justified.

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

Yes. And likewise, Vatican II in the early 1960s was a real mess. Lots of left wing types got their ideas into the Church at that point under the guise of 'modernization' -- to be sure some of the reforms were good (eg, liturgy in vernacular languages vs Latin) but quite a lot weren't.

Much of the modern Catholic ultra soft cuckiness stems from this time period. A number of the hard-left "reformers" in Vatican II were Cardinals which were ex-Jew converts. They were a driving force behind much of these "reforms" especially including Nostra Aetate.

Make of that what you will, though some might call it subversion.

It's fine for you and I to have our own opinions on the law and weigh the morality of a given statute or regulation, or whether or not we want to obey it -- that can be text book civil disobedience after all. Ultimately the ends of civil disobedience would be to get an unjust law abolished or rewritten, etc. to be more equitable. Otherwise if one wants to change the law, one gets involved in legislation [running for office, campaigning on a referendum type vote, etc] or issues advocacy on some level, perhaps even including lawsuits etc.

But it's not the role of any judge to arbitrarily decide to impose their individual morals on the rest of society in place of the Constitution -- that's now we get Ginsburgs and [insert any activist Left Wing judge]. I just want them to decided if the case before them violates the Constitution, and our laws, as written, or not. That is their only function.

Amy's opinion is rather simple for deconflicting these things (ie, her morality vs US law) -- sit it out. However, I don't want a jurist who is going to be potentially sitting out of VERY important cases and leaving it up to the rest. We deserve better.

For instance, from her own writings on the death penalty, this is her thinking on the conflict of morals/faith vs US law:

This puts Catholic judges in a bind. They are obliged by oath, professional commitment, and the demands of citizenship to enforce the death penalty. They are also obliged to adhere to their church's teaching on moral matters. The legal system has a solution for this dilemma-it allows (indeed it requires) the recusal of judges whose convictions keep them from doing their job. This is a good solution. But it is harder than you think to de- termine when a judge must recuse himself and when he may stay on the job. Catholic judges will not want to shirk their judicial obligations. They will want to sit whenever they can without acting immorally. So they need to know what the church teaches, and its effect on them. On the other hand litigants and the general public are entitled to impartial justice, and that may be something that a judge who is heedful of eccle- siastical pronouncements cannot dispense. We need to know whether judges are sometimes legally disqualified from hearing cases that their consciences would let them decide.

I just don't want someone on the bench to decide that they cannot possibly consider a death penalty case, for instance, because of her (or the Vatican's) interpretation of the Bible, etc. There are lot of times death penalty cases (or potential cases) might wend their way up to the Supreme Court. Terrorism jumps out as one which has been extremely relevant in recent years.

Again, the bigger issue is just what, exactly, are the limits of when she may recuse -- and what other Church Doctrine will be handed down which she may feel compelled to abide by over the laws of the US?

Final Thought: Would you accept this if the Judge was Muslim and refused to render verdicts on cases which went against Sharia law? I suspect not.

Note the precise amount of downvotes on so many comments that are critical of ACB. All of them -97.

Totally not a shill op.

LMFAO

It's an ACB shill. The same/similar text and 'defensive lines' are posted over in /pol/ and /ptg/ in particular regularly.

Fuck papists. She's damaged goods and too many question marks about key issues.

She backed lockdowns, etc. and has in her own words said her Catholic Morality > US Law.

No thanks.

He is calling police “pro regime” forces. Pause and reflect. Realize that the verbiage they all use is intended. The intent is to destabilize and delegitimization the government. This is happening daily.

Time is running out to prepare. Guns, ammo, first aid, and mutual defense with neighbors, church, etc and willingness to act are required of all soon.

Reminder that this “journalist” (a propagandist for the left and the revolution) has already decided Trump has lost 2020. All of them have.

They won’t submit. They will fight. They will try to kill you.

If you really want to tickle the old almonds take a look at the ethnicity of nearly every single impeachment prosecutor and witness against Trump.

Oyyyyyyyy veyyyyyyyyyyy.

F

When you think about it, she would have perhaps gotten 4 picks. It’s likely RGB would have retired early (rather than hanging in by her fingernails until death) along with a Breyer retirement before 2020.

REMINDER: Obama funded all of this with the PREDICT program that Trump ended.

COVID-19 exists because of the PREDICT program which was created and funded under Obama. PREDICT’s prime focus is collecting animals and sequencing disease DNA that may have potential spread to humans.

PREDICT, a project of USAID’s Emerging Pandemic Threats program, was initiated in 2009 to strengthen global capacity for detection and discovery of zoonotic viruses with pandemic potential. Those include coronaviruses, the family to which SARS and MERS belong; . . . Now working with partners in 31 countries, PREDICT is continuing to build platforms for disease surveillance and for identifying and monitoring pathogens that can be shared between animals and people. https://www.usaid.gov/sites/default/files/documents/1864/predict-global-flyer-508.pdf

PREDICT was in China. A Wuhan lab participated -- the very one that 'found' COVID-19 which was linked to a bat non-native to the Hubei/Wuhan area being studied there.

The initiative, called PREDICT, also trained and supported staff in 60 foreign laboratories - including the Wuhan lab that identified 2019-nCoV, the new coronavirus that causes COVID-19. http://archive.is/2kjWS

This is the very lab where "Bat Lady" Shi Zhengli worked. She’s the one that went missing - and there was heavy speculation about her/her team being the source.

Shi - a virologist who is often called China’s “bat woman” by her colleagues because of her virus-hunting expeditions in bat caves over the past 16 years — walked out of the conference she was attending in Shanghai and hopped on the next train back to Wuhan. http://archive.is/zgJWe

Numerous studies link Obama's PREDICT and Shi back to SARS-Bat research. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6178078/

https://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/news/sars-virus-discovered-chinese-horseshoe-bats

https://www.nature.com/articles/nature12711.pdf

tl;dr Obama's PREDICT program, the very one libshits screeched about Trump ending earlier this year funded and caused this whole thing with sloppy Chinese scientists.

.

The US tax payer literally paid for COVID-19. Thanks Obama!

DOJ needs to RICO the whole fucking lot, starting with direct funders like Soros/Open Society Foundation grips, and other hit other revenue streams including the BLM 501(c)(3), ActBlue and other fronts that are laundering money on behalf of ANTIFA.

Where the fuck are you, Barr?

Why wouldn't you believe it? They're strapped with handguns and in tacgear with FBI on the chest walking around the streets of DC in broad daylight. These are FBI employees. This happening in Washington DC, during the riots there. There's multiple angles, and multiple sources.

Stop watching Hannity. The FBI are not your friend. The FBI are a politicized police force who work for the Democrat party. They will happily railroad you and put you in jail while they let their political allies walk free.
