Vanderboegh: In re Keeku

Our sins are those of omission.

Keeku's are sins of commission.

Which is worse is for God and history to judge.
I do have something to add to one thing you presented, Mike:
Ultimately, the then-sitting Boundary County Prosecutor, Brett Benson, who had defeated Woodbury in the 2000 election, decided to drop the charges because he felt it was unlikely the state could prove the case and too much time had passed.
That ain't the whole story.

Not by a long shot.

There's no statute of limitations on MURDER.
So the feds say it's a local matter, and the locals think it's old news and nobody cares, except one guy who suddenly gets accused of some kind of malfeasance in office?

I read Mike's thoughts yesterday and I see a lot of similarity between what he is saying and what Patrick Henry said 233 years ago..
"The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"

Beneath a monumental pyramid of stacked stone in a cemetery near here lie the remains of 11,000 unknown Civil War dead. Maybe it's not important to know who they all were. It's more important to realize that they knew they might end up an unidentified corpse on a field of battle, but marched anyway, because of what they believed in. To half of America, they were traitors; to the other half, martyrs. Their cause was not lost, as some say. We continue today to endeavor to place chains upon the federal beast.
I hear the Independence Day fireworks. It's easy to imagine running gun battles in the streets. There are worse fates, and worse deaths. Better us than our grandchildren.
Speaking of our grandchildren: The opposition may want to consider that three teens yelled at for skateboarding in a shopping center vandalized 40 nearby homes and cars in one night, causing half a million dollars in damage. And they were hardly trying,
