    I hate that the rule of law is being eroded and vanishing before my eyes by these people, like Abbott and similar ilk, but…it is hard to yourself stick to the rule of law, when the other will not. It almost becomes meaningless, ink on a piece of paper and nothing more.

    I cannot think of good alternatives, when things reach that stage. I just hope we still have a way to turn back from all of this. I want to believe the train tracks we’re on still fork off in a different direction, somewhere along the line before we slam into the wall at 80MPH.

    The eradication of the rule of law is one of the most dangerous things I think a modern society can have happen. I have ideas about where that goes, and it’s some pretty fucking dark places I’d rather we as a nation would not.
