Subject: Re:Gonna blame that on liberalism??
(V): "And as for the courts, judges do have the right to argue about the law, sentences and the like.. over here in poor ol' 'liberal' UK. Some do, some will also do in cases where it's more of a matter of personal feeling and not as such an illegal activity."

Yes, they interpret the law, often based on precedent. But the courts are not to make laws. The legislature makes the laws. And the courts don't legislate. They ought not to usurp constitutional authority. If they do, they are renegades and should be shot. At least ousted from the bench. They work for me by the way.
