    Glenn,

    my friend (and I say this losely), Jeff is merely saying that justice is NOT colorblind! Can you not (can't you) see that? I think you do. Left/right/central. Regard for human law is NOT dependent on you're artificial understanding of what RIGHT is! Friend, there comes a time in everyones life (Americans) when we have to decide: can WE live this way? I say YES. But only if we share an understanding of what legality is. This is what Jeffery Harrison was eluding too (in my opinion)>

    Jeffrey P. Harrison/umbrage

    Could you please give some understanding as to how you determined the "left/right instead of central" implication of GG's article?

    I'd be really interested in hearing that, too.
