Re: Switzerland Will Not Extradite Polanski
Not at all - my argument is that the law of the land as it stands should be followed to the letter. I've been ignoring the whole issue of if, when and how to change it because it's irrelevant to the Swiss decision in Polanski's case.Deepcrush wrote:Wouldn't that go against your saying that once a law is written it should only be followed to the letter?

Sorry, don't live in Switzerland nor is it within my power to force them to change their laws.Captain Seafort wrote:If you don't like it then get it changed or bug out.stitch626 wrote:To follow an unjust law is unjust in and of itself.
So, in your opinion, was it right for the soldiers to follow the laws instituted by Hitler and kill thousands in internment camps?
