A moment of clarity worth noting.

A federal judge said today the US Constitution does not grant Congress the power to require a person to purchase insurance coverage. Therefore you can't tax someone for merely existing. It's a point worth noting for it's intellectual honesty and logical thought, unfortunately two things absent from too many Judges in America. The Brian Aitken case in Jersey is an example of (among other things) faulty logic; the recent comments made by Justice Stephen Breyer of the US Supreme Court define intellectual dishonesty.

Brian Aitken was convicted of a crime in State court that he is (supposed to be) Federally protected from. He is serving 7 years for moving residences, legally, with a couple legally owned guns. The judge refused three times when asked to provide the jury with the law that protects Brian's actions.  The judge has since lost his seat on the bench for other misconduct.  

Brian remains in prison.  Chew on that.

In other news:

Currently shilling his new book, Justice Breyer agrees with historians that have concluded Founding Father James Madison was more worried that the Constitution may not be ratified than he was about granting individuals the right to bear arms. In other words, The Right to keep and bear arms was a hollow concession that shouldn't exist, except that it does, and has been a pillar of our society from before day 1.  None should be surprised with this perspective, coming from a Justice that makes no secret of his philosophy to ignore the intent of the law and focus on the consequences. It's a reactionary perspective.

There's room for everyone somewhere along the spectrum. Draw your own conclusions. Have your own moment of clarity. At the very least, take a few moments from time to time to ponder about what you think, and why. 

Society is better served when thinking people get involved in it's direction.
