For those that are interested, the commentary I mentioned previously was written by Walter E. Williams and distributed by Creators Syndicate Inc. It appeared in the July 4, 2001 _Tampa Tribune_. While I obviously can't reprint the article, Williams makes a great analogy between laws in society and laws (rules) in baseball. He fully defines the rule of law and demonstrates how you can tell if a law violates those principles. Oh, and by the way, I made a mistake in my description of the Latin phrases that applied. Here is the correct information: "In nonprogressive societies, rule of law is absent. Laws are not general.. They're applied according to a person's status or group membership. There's rule not by legis - the Latin word for law - but by privileges, the Latin term for private law." |-----------------+-------------------------------------------------------| |Eric A.
