Instead, they are using their power and going to extraordinary lengths to contradict the courts and to deny what has been declared over and over Terry and Michael's rights. Perhaps they are technically within their rights, it doesn't mean it's not scummy.

So you try one thing, get stopped because it was declared as unconstitutional, and you should stop trying other avenues? I would suspect that you would be very persistent in pursuing what you thought was best in every situation if you hit a roadblock you thought you could get around.

They are not contradicting any court. They are working within an established system of government. You may think it scummy, and that's fine, but it's all about working within the system to acheive your goal.

Personally, I think it's scummy to make someone die of dehydration.
