Eric Holder was called an Activist today by CNN reporter Evan Perez. He blatantly told the State Attorney Generals that disobeying the law was a legal recourse to not agreeing with it. Well let’s see Mr. Perez if someone did not agree with the law that keeps people out of your home would you let them in? Of course you wouldn’t but neither should our top law enforcement officers ignore a law they do not like. If the law is unconstitutional by the design of the constitution you are not obligated to follow it but that does not mean that law enforcement can pick and choose which laws to enforce, that means as a citizen I have the ability and duty to challenge the law through peaceful means that result in the courts making decisions which is their duty. In Arizona there is a debate about the bill SB1062 which the media has called Anti Gay. Now I have read the bill and there are no references to homosexuals at all in it anywhere. It is a bill that if made law will allow businesses not to serve those they do not agree with on a religious basis. In all actuality it is a bill defining for the state, the 1st amendments freedom of religion. If we hold self evident that all men are created equal and all men have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness then a | gay couple is allowed to seek out businesses that will serve them and businesses that do not agree with that particular life style are allowed to serve who they choose anyway, no law is required. Unless of course there are people more equal then others as George Orwell put it in animal farm. In my own belief they both have the right to their opinion and they both have a right to serve or not serve, shop at or not shop at anyone or anything. This bill is the cause of Mr. Holder’s completely wrong idea that if you do not agree with the law, then do not enforce it. This is why we have a Congress in the first place, to debate issues and do what is right under the constitution and if the courts and the Congress were doing their jobs properly this would not be an issue. |
