re: #474 Patricia Kayden

Ignoring the law when the law is unjustifiable is fine with me. That’s how we had the Underground Railroad despite laws which mandated the return of slaves to their masters. It’s also how we fought Jim Crow laws during the Civil Rights Movement.

Those are individuals ignoring laws. That’s different from the government doing so. People saying the president/congress/states should ignore rulings are arguing for an Andrew Jackson approach to the law. That can’t stand.
