Reply #137: I hope you'll pardon me, but I don't see how going after this sort of thing the way people do around

here is anything but just "changing the names on the doors".

Law is about process not morality, not a perfect process, but one preferable to giving people what they scream for, the power to enforce their own morality, a power that can be as brutal as any other. No matter how Just a given instance may be, it always, eventually, leads to Might-Makes-Right.

Until some realistic resolution of the inadequacies of the process manifests itself and is implemented by those who are capable of recognizing it, I am going to side with those who stand some chance of facilitating the evolution of the process, even if it is in the "smallest" ways, toward that possibility rather than with those who would trust chaos to get it right.
