I don't see how two separate laws can spiritually impact eachother.

It's the concept that if you know you can break certain laws with impunity, then you might be inclined to break more due to that success.

Some things aren't supposed to go together, and cheese on apple pie is one of those.

Is it a weak law because no one would enforce it or is it a strong law because people will comply besides the fact no one would enforce it?

Weak laws are ones that cannot or will not be enforced. An excellent example of this was Carter's imposition of the national 55 mph speed limit. Many state governments refused to enforce it. People generally ignored it. It became a national parody and joke. The utter contempt society had for it undermined not only that law but caused many people to flaunt other traffic laws.

In the end subjectivity is meaningless.

This isn't subjective, it is objective. When all of a society has contempt for government and the law, criminals begin to rule instead. In the Soviet Union, the black market became a major part of the economy. It made the oligarchs in Russia out of the collapse of that state into Russia today. Prohibition in the US and the drug cartels in Mexico are two more examples of this. In the first, an unenforceable and despised law gave rise to widespread pushback and illegal activity. In the second, a weak government and widespread poverty from decades of economic mismanagement resulted in gangs gaining power and becoming, for all intents, local powers rivaling government. Shitty laws and widespread government corruption were the cause.

I am not saying The Sleepy Felon will do this, but imagine you argued against Due Process for "Illegals" and a new president decides you are an illegal alien, but you have lost a right to take that to Court....

That president could decide he wants you deported, all he would have to do is say you are illegal, and you would end up in El Salvadorian Prison, where they simply refuse to return you.

Are you okay with that?

77,000,000+ trumpanzees are obviously OK with that.
Those of us who are not allowed ourselves to lose.

Ah! Better! But typically overcomplicated. If I was the "authoritarian leaning" president, first, things have gone 180 degrees out of phase, and second, I for damn sure would be a jackass, because the first "authoritarian" thing I would do is take away the guns.

As for this pesky American who has dirt on me, I'd just call my new bestest buddy pooty poot and ask him to send KGB operative Boris Badenov over to poison the guy or expose him to some rare form of radiation.

If I still wanted to go the stupid INS route, I'd wait until my evil Nazi scientists have developed the mass hypnosis machine to keep the INS bureaucracy under control, and it sure would come in handy when I'm taking away the guns.

OK? That's it?

A couple posts back, you said and I quote, "43, never had my IQ tested, but I have a doctorate degree. Support and raise a family without working very hard."

You've also claimed to be a lawyer, but you don't work very hard. Hence, there may be some substance to the allegations that you are a receptionist at a law firm with delusions of grandeur. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say you might be a lawyer, but it took you at least 3 attempts to pass the bar, and now you're a mid-tier earner at a traffic ticket clinic or a public defender.

Why would I say that? Because those guys don't work very hard either. Their jobs are to come up plausible stories so their clients don't face the consequences of their actions.

You can't even do that here on an internet forum which is just a hobby for most of us. Work harder, you're paying my social security and Medicare now.

You lost, old man, because you and the far left loons colluded with the media to cover up the vegetable’s cognitive decline.

You lied to the American people and it was clear to all that you lied.

You ran an airhead who received zero primary votes and you allowed the voters to see that she was an airhead with no grasp of issues.

Your party deserved the loss of the White House and the Senate and the retention of the House.

Stop whining and get over it, old man.
