Tyranny, noun, 1. the cruel and arbitrary use of authority

Judicial tyranny? An overstatement? You decide.

Last week, Florida's Supreme Court struck down a 1999 law that required parents to be informed before their minor daughter obtained an abortion. What parent doesn't want to know that their fourteen-year-old daughter's going to be sedated for surgery, scarred for life, and their grandchild aborted? The 5-1 majority said in their ruling that the will of the citizens violated the "privacy rights" of pregnant teenagers. They followed the Supreme Court precedent for irrationality: the Court in Roe vs. Wade cited "the right to privacy" to condemn all restrictions against intrauterine child-killing in all fifty states.

On July 18, hundreds of church leaders gathered outside the courthouse in Charlotte, North Carolina, and issued a formal Ecclesiastical Court statement holding the Supreme Court in contempt of the Court of Almighty God. In their indictment, which can be found on Operation Save America's website, they cited six court cases in which the Court defied the Constitution and the eternal laws of God. Charging the Court for high treason, Flip Benham burned a copy of Roe vs. Wade on the steps of the courthouse, for which he was promptly arrested.
