English Common Law Update.

The four videos by barrister Harry Potter give a good overview how English Common Law progressed over more than four centuries to improve the civil liberties of the average citizen. The same rights have also been written into the USA constitution. These videos show how those rights (including habeas corpus) were slowly won in the face of adversity and with much blood and treasure expended.

Never mind the Canadians for a moment.

The world dominant power, the USA, effectively overturned the rights of citizens enshrined in its constitution in recent years. It took me a while to rediscover this old video, but thanks to the power of SI Advanced Search I eventually found it. It was just a matter of finding the right search words. I wanted to use this video as it explains the issue clearly and succinctly. The NDAA provisions for indefinite detention. An important development to the Harry Potter video series.

This is from 2014.



The bottom line it that we seem to have gone back to square one on citizens' rights, and it took 400+ years to get to where we were.

The fashion is a catching one, and now taken up by Canada and many other nations, including the UK.

And we have now got a French Revolution scenario where neighbour denounces neighbour and all you have to say is something that they might be an enemy of the state. Or any other excuse ... flimsy, true, false, or otherwise. In or out of uniform, who is to say.
