"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 |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
