"Frankfurter was born too soon for the Web, but I'm sure that, had it been possible, there would have been the equivalent of Ninomania for Frankfurter."

Chuck Cooper wasn't prepared to answer the "What's the harm" question? Amid all his research, he didn't take in Prof. Lynn Wardle's essay collection, or Prof. Robert P. George's articles (you might start with this, but there's a lot more)? Without an awareness of the impact of a common culture of marriage on individuals and families in the aggregate, present and future, why was he even motivated to take the case?

U.K. social workers plan to take child from unwed mother -- because she's unwed? Oh no: in fact, she and the father are engaged. It's because in the social worker's opinion the 17-year-old mother does "not understand the implications of getting married."
One wonders what those even are in Britain today. And how freedom's island, the fountainhead of the rule of law, got to be -- what it is today.

It's great to be a cause-oriented lawyer, but don't be this type.

"A Delta airliner en route from Seattle to Atlanta made an unscheduled stop in Nashville after a passenger reportedly began quoting Bible passages. No one was hurt."
Imagine our relief.
Actually, it appears that what got the passenger arrested was battery attempted kidnapping; interesting, though, that reporters would give the “lede” to the Bible factor. It’s a Fox/AP story. Fox calling attention to persecution of Bible-quoters -- or AP urging more of it?

Frakk'n Nebbia. If that rapacious milk price-fixing scheme didn't violate the Due Process Clause (and it probably didn't -- let's talk about P/I later), then it violated the Equal Protection Clause as blatant class legislation. I'll even entertain a motion that it violated the Titles of Nobility Clause. Farmers -- the last aristocracy.
