Justice Weeps

Reference: Weinbaum/Boyd v. City of Las Cruces, New Mexico (No. 06-2355). "Appellants' petition for rehearing is denied. The petition for rehearing en banc was transmitted to all of the judges of the court who are in regular active service. As no members of the panel [Carlos F. Lucero, David E. Ebel, and Jerome A. Holmes] and no judge in regular active service on the court requested that the court be polled, that petition is also denied."

On 23 October 2008 the legitimate en banc request for justice went unheeded by the full twenty-one judge body of federal judges at the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals. Of course those three judges referenced above are not about to recant their faith-based decision, however illogical and numbing to any sense of fair play and justice. While American soldiers representing all faiths and none are being dismembered and dying daily in Iraq and Afghanistan and dozens of other unnamed locales around the globe, these judges safely turned "their backs on the land" of the people who do not deserve these judges' selfish and inconsiderate lack of attention to our laws. To what low depths has the faith-based myrmidons affected our courts? Is it so much so that not one judge on this court of appeals dared to speak against the lies addressed to the court that twisted the truth that protects the minorities from the majority in this country?
Those en banc judges will have to live with their shame. They know what they have done!
