Officials Must Obey THE LAW?????

Until the outcome of our most bloody “War Between The States” Blacks were not, by a decision of the Supreme Court Of The United States not consider as full human-citizens.

At that time we also had a Federal “Fugitive Slave Law” as allowed the capture and return to their “owners” of those Blacks who had fled slavery. That law imposed very severe penalties on any official who did not arrest any person alleged to be a fugitive slave upon a sworn claim of ownership. It did not allow such arrested persons any access to the courts to challenge that reinslavement.

Was it proper for officials and others to not obey such “LAW”? [In my Wisconsin the State Courts stated “NO”, but were overturned by SCOTUS. Juror-Citizens, in related trials as to punishing officials and others resisting that legal reinslavement, resorted to “Jury Nullification” and voted “Not Guilty” in opposition to the facts and the law.]

COULD IT BE THAT THOSE OPPONENTS OF SLAVERY WERE OBEYING A “HIGHER LAW” AS IS CLAIMED BY THOSE OPPOSING THE UNDEMOCRATIC SCOTUS DECISION CHANGING OUR BASIC LAW TO ESTABLISH A RIGHT TO SAME SEX “MARRIAGE”? (That is, by amending the Constitution without going through the democratic process required for such an action.)

In recent years many public officials have not complied with other laws as:
  1. Issuing permits/licenses to buy/own firearms in accordance with the SCOTUS decision that such is an individual right of citizens (As extended to the States under the Fourteenth Amendment to our Constitution);
  2. Mrs. Hilary Clinton's refusal to obey those laws regarding the security of information within the Department Of State;
  3. Abusing the great power of the IRS to harass/punish opponents of the present Administration;
  4. Violating the provisions/protections, against unreasonable searches/seizures, to punish supporters of Republican Governor Scott Walker.


I have not noted that those persons opposing the decision of a County Clerk to disobey the noted Court made law demanding that public officials obey the law as to items 1-4 above!
