"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

The whole thing looks like a fuster cluck.

I'm sure with cooling weather the numbers and angst will experience an uptick!

Oh, I'm sorry I meant to imply the uptick would be in the basements of the parents who spawned these ignorant fools!

At my daughter's grad school they had signs up advertising an Occupy WS day this past Saturday.  The only thing is the signs didn't say why they were protesting or what it was about or who was organizing it.

300 people showed up...I guess you can lead some people any where

Let me guess.  It wasn't the Engineering School, the Computer Science College, those wacky Astro-Physicists, the Business College, nor the Economics School.

It was the College of Political Science?  Sociology? African American Studies department?  Philosophy?
