furb 06/27/22 2:23:50 PM #12:	The issue is sort of philosophical at its core. What is the rightist way to determine if something is constitutional? Does history and context matter? What does the document say specifically vs. what can be inferred? We expect judges to employ their judgement. Some judges emphasize different things in doing so. The law is not always like a math equation. Instead there are multiple conclusions folks can reach with the same information whether acting in good or bad faith.

Ivany2008 06/27/22 2:54:14 PM #21:	They are supposed to be, but unfortunately they aren't always. I had an issue a few years ago with a company I worked with. Won't get into the details, but long story short it went to court after they fired me for unjust reasons. The judge who was a pre-trial judge was very much acting like an asshole, to the point where my former employers legal aide was like "hold on a second, no one should be treated like this". We settled out of court as we didn't want to chance getting that judge again. But the judge himself was countering everything I was saying. I asked for my father to help speak for me as I at the time had issues speaking in public, and he outright refused. I asked if I could take a second to think about my answer and he kept badgering me to speed it up, despite less than 3 seconds happening. <cite>Ivany2008 posted [p:966150729] in Aren't jud...
