The law is literary

Here is a beautiful court ruling during a national emergency.

West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette, 319 U.S. 624 (1943):

• “Struggles to coerce uniformity of sentiment in support of some end thought essential to their time and country have been waged by many good as well as by evil men. Nationalism is a relatively recent phenomenon but at other times and places the ends have been racial or territorial security, support of a dynasty or regime, and particular plans for saving souls. As first and moderate methods to attain unity have failed, those bent on its accomplishment must resort to an ever increasing severity….[t]hose who begin coercive elimination of dissent soon find themselves exterminating dissenters. Compulsory unification of opinion achieves only unanimity of the graveyard.”

In our current national and worldwide “emergency,” the suppression of dissent in the face of compulsory shots and medical protocols, and the suppression of a variety of treatments for Covid19 has killed millions.
