In reply to the discussion: We no longer have the rule of law in this country [View all]Dragonfli
(10,622 posts)a response was a solution to the resurgence of this centuries old problem.
I did indeed point out that revolutions were fought in the past in large part because the laws were used as a weapon against the poor and abused subjects under Monarchies that were above the law themselves. I did so to point out such a problem is very serious one and disastrous to the point that revolutions were fought in desperate attempts to introduce a fairer system to populaces that were bled dry under the lawlessness of the elites in the past.
I never did attempt with the OP to offer a solution to this problem under a broken Republic rather than a Monarchistic one, I did not offer solutions because I do not believe I have the solution. I do know however no solution will be found if we pretend the problem does not exist or we meekly accept the loss of the rule of law in quiet servitude. I sought to speak the unspeakable truth that so few have the courage to acknowledge in the hope that a discussion would follow as I feel a solution will never be found if the subject is verboten.
Also, I already addressed that posters imaginings as I felt he/she was either ignorant or feigning ignorance regarding the plain words that I actually did write.
Having already addressed it, this post is redundant and a waste of time, but you did ask nicely so I answered yet again.
That the poster chose to place fingers in ear and shout "lah lah lah.. can't hear you" while continuing writing nonsense is hardly my fault.
Finally, I did not alert because I do not really fear the unfounded accusations of the ignorant and prefer to allow even the foolish to hold idiotic views and express them in public, as it turns out my lack of fear was appropriate as pretty much everyone else that read my OP understood what I wrote with no difficulty.
