Summary

Don’t be overwhelmed by today’s events in your business, family, or our politics. Seek understanding of the original causes. A tyrannical state, through hysterically emotional courtrooms, ruthlessly ambitious and corrupt prosecutors, and political-wind-sniffing judges, frequently destroys the lives of law-abiding American citizens. Sarah Good and 4 other innocent women were executed in Massachusetts 1692 for being witches! With no conviction ever, Ray Buckey spent 5 years of his life in jail in the Mc Martin preschool case in Southern California during the 1980s. Members of the Amirault family of Massachusetts spent even longer in jail for crimes they never committed in the shamefully notorious Fells Acres Day Care Center case in the same decade. In 1987, Judge Robert Bork had his career and reputation severely damaged by U.S. senators led by Ted Kennedy preaching sanctimoniously to Judge Bork and denouncing him for imperiling the lives of women. This, less than 20 years after Kennedy had killed Mary Jo Kopechne. In 1991 Judge Clarence Thomas was subjected to what he called a ‘high tech lynching’ with senators destroying his reputation on the unsubstantiated accusations of one woman. What happened to Brett Kavanaugh on September 27th, 2018 was not unprecedented. The trampling of the constitution by very bad people in power has been going on for a very long time. Whether in business, families, or politics, watch the trend rather than just the event. A Powerful Permanent Principle: Seek out original causes of today’s disturbing events and above all, reduce the size and power of government. Learn more about your ad choices.

0:20.4	This is Rabbi Daniel Appen on the Blaze really works. And one of the ways in how the world really works.
0:55.9	And one of the ways in which the world really works is that there has to be a legal system in operation for society to function.
1:06.6	It's one of the reasons that the societies that have been successful over the last 2,000 years,
1:14.2	societies that have been stable to some extent and certainly wealth creating,
1:21.6	have all been societies that have had viable justice systems.
1:26.8	The reason is because it is simply not possible for human beings
1:30.6	to live together without having misunderstandings, arguments, debates. And when these involve
1:39.1	issues of money, damages, etc., there needs to be a mechanism for resolving them.

1:56.9	That's why it is so terribly important,
1:59.2	and that's why a good deal of America's success over the last few hundred years has been because of the Constitution and because America adopted.
2:12.0	Many of the principles that were already in place in England, such as the fact that a person cannot be destroyed on the

2:31.9	Where did it come from?
2:32.9	Well, Deuteronomy chapter 17, verse 6, by the words of two witnesses or three witnesses,
2:43.1	shall he that is worthy of the death penalty be executed.
