"If someone's constitutional rights are infringed, it's up to the courts to take action, not this board," Kelly said.
Au contraire. If someone's constitutional rights are infringed, the injury has already occurred. The purpose of these resolutions is to preempt that violation of rights.
Kelly's statement puts the cart before the horse; in real terms, people's lives will be ruined with little to no probability of being rebuilt.
Case in point: Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn. His reputation has been destroyed, his lifetime of accrued assets totally depleted, and even if his case is reversed and/or thrown out, he's SCREWED.
That is not what life in America is supposed to be like.
It's atrocious, and unacceptable. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
