Legal
profession on trial
by W. Finnerty. Fri Jul 27, 2007

Despite the fact that
constitutional law expert
Dr Gerard Hogan (Fellow of Trinity College,
Dublin) obviously believes our
National Monuments (Amendment) Act 2004 to
be "unconstitutional" (and consequently illegal), and the much more recent
concerns expressed by
European Union Commissioner Stavros Dimas,
both
Judge John Brophy and defence lawyer
Michael Finucane last
Wednesday in Navan
"acted as if" the National Monuments (Amendment) Act
2004 (Republic of Ireland) was all legally valid.
An
effort was made yesterday to point out this very strange and sickening situation
to several senior lawyers and politicians.
The e-mail
used was titled: "
Legal profession on trial".
For
anybody interested a copy of yesterday's e-mail, which was directed primarily at
our
Chief Justice Mr John L. Murray, can be viewed at
http://www.europeancourtofhumanrightswilliamfinnerty.com/ChiefJusticeMurray/26July2007/Email.htm
.
It seems to me the time has now come when the legal
profession needs to be strongly challenged regarding the outrageously corrupt
behaviour they continue to indulge themselves in, and which they apparently have
not the slightest intention of giving up.
"Experience,
however, soon showed in what way they (the judiciary bodies) were to become the
most dangerous ..." (Thomas Jefferson at
http://etext.virginia.edu/jefferson/quotations/jeff1270.htm
)
My hope is that the seven people (recently increased to
eight apparently) who now have to defend themselves in court on
September
5th will somehow find a way to protect themselves, and to get justice:
without having to kowtow to all the corruption in the legal
profession.

Undermining
Republican Government: "At the establishment of our
Constitutions,
the judiciary bodies were supposed to be the most helpless
and harmless members of the government. Experience, however, soon showed in what
way
they were to become the most
dangerous; that the insufficiency of the means provided for their
removal gave them a freehold and irresponsibility in office; that their
decisions, seeming to concern individual suitors only, pass silent and unheeded
by the public at large; that these decisions nevertheless become law by
precedent,
sapping by little and little the foundations of the
Constitution and working its change by construction before any one has
perceived that that invisible and helpless worm has been busily employed in
consuming its substance.
In truth, man is not made to be trusted for life if
secured against all liability to account." (Senior Lawyer Thomas
Jefferson, Main Author of the American "Declaration of Independence" and 3rd
President of the United States of America, to A. Coray,
1823 -
see at
http://etext.virginia.edu/jefferson/quotations/jeff1270.htm
.)
For whatever reason, contrived or
otherwise, overall we're collectively
VERY slow learners it seems
(1823 to 2007 =
184 years), with regard to crucially
important social issues of this particular
kind?
