None Are Above the Law, Nor Beyond its Protection

Never forget that in every society there are those who riddle its structure, from the lowliest laborer, to the highest military, judicial or political office, who, given the opportunity, will use force to gain and keep power.

A good window into their hearts, are their statements about how they would treat those who they deem less deserving of respect, civil rights and protection because of their "other," "impoverished," "uneducated," "foreign," "undocumented," or "alien," status.

It is only the collective resolve and vigilance of those who understand that none are above the law and none are beyond its protection that keeps them in check. Vote wisely.
