But, VG. If, in common law, the SC makes a _precedent_, and nobody cares about its binding effect, then is the "binding" effective?

Like a voice crying in the wilderness, and everybody's ears are purposely plugged so as not to hear. Like the people who love to take, but refuse to give -- even if their health or their freedom is threatened.

Ezra, Brian, Ann -- brilliant, uplifting, independent masters of communication and rhetoric.

We are so fortunate.

Time to quit the UN makes much sense plus firing the Cdn diplos left redundant by the move would be refreshing. Also moving the UN to China and Belarus for 10 years each before equal stints in either of the two Congos and then Brazil to help protect the rain forests would be cool.

noel,

If nobody makes the argument, no ruling can be made.. That's just the way the system works..

Apparently this angle hasn't been tried..

It also doesn't help that many judges believe in 'living document' law that attempts to innovate and read into law that which isn't expressly written..

Precedent has been perverted grossly..

also.. here's more support for Vattel's Law of Nations..

Under Adams’ direction, the War of 1812 might have, in fact, been remembered as the War of 1806. He confides to Rush that he “would have declared war against Great Britain five or six years ago, when the King issued that most atrocious of all violations of the Law of Nations, his proclamation for impressing seamen from our ships.”

Britain’s controversial seizure of American sailors to crew Royal Navy ships for its ongoing wars against France — a policy that treated citizens of the newly independent United States as if they were still Britons — was a key trigger for the War of 1812.

oh.. and in case anyone thinks those yanks were evil for going to war..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impressment

British North America

One of the largest impressment operations occurred in the spring of 1757 in New York City, then still under British colonial rule. Three thousand British soldiers cordoned off the city, and plucked clean the taverns and other sailors' gathering places. "All kinds of tradesmen and Negroes" were hauled in, nearly eight hundred in all.[7] Four hundred of these were "retained in the service."

The Royal Navy also used impressment extensively in British North America from 1775 to 1815. Its press gangs sparked resistance, riots, and political turmoil in seaports such as Halifax, St John's, and Quebec City. Nevertheless, the Royal Navy extended the reach of its press gangs into coastal areas of British North America by the early nineteenth century. In response, sailors and residents fought back with a range of tactics. They sometimes reacted violently. The riots in St John's in 1794 and Halifax in 1805 led to a prohibition on impressment on shore for much of the Napoleonic Wars. The protest came from a wide swath of the urban community, including elites, rather than just the vulnerable sailors, and had a lasting negative impact on civil–naval relations in what became Canada. The local communities did not encourage their young men to volunteer for the Royal Navy.[8]

Of course Canada should quit the UN, but the notion just seems too radical and isolationist for most. I think a better idea is for free countries to get out of the UN by creating a new group -- United DEMOCRATIC Nations.

Hey, VG, thanks for all that! Appreciated, and I'm reading it again. [At my age you get the advantage of reading things over again, for the first time.]
