When a Supreme Court justice decides a case, should he or she look exclusively to the Constitution and U.S. laws? Or should foreign policies or laws come into play?
Those are easy questions for most Americans. They know U.S. citizens are subject only to laws made by American legislators -- not foreigners at the United Nations, in Europe or in Zimbabwe.
Yet at least one sitting Supreme Court justice says American jurists should look to foreign precedent. And President Barack Obama’s first nominee to sit on the high court, Sonia Sotomayor, seems a bit unclear on that point, too....
Americans Deserve American Laws
I disagree. Perhaps you would like European laws that devalue life, support Slavery, discrimination, and aryian values, but freedom loving americans won't support you.
