Ever wonder what it would be like to live in a country where there is no rule of law? Or even worse, to live in a country where there is a two-tiered justice system.
We live in a country where the working population has the fruits of their labor redistributed to those who do not work and they enjoy the legal protection of the government. I call that tyranny over an enslaved people. The government and church call it Social Justice.

Young face put on illegal migration at DNC
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Democrats broke yet another barrier Wednesday when they invited an illegal immigrant young adult onto the stage at their nominating convention in Charlotte — part of a historic Hispanic outreach program the party hopes will cement ties to the fast-growing ethnic voting bloc in the country.
It’s likely the first time an illegal immigrant has taken the podium at a major party convention, and highlights President Obama’s own stance on the issue: The student, Benita Veliz, had her deportation halted under Mr. Obama’s non-deportation policies.
In a pointed political appeal, Rep. Luis V. Gutierrez, the Illinois Democrat who has become his party’s de facto leader in pushing immigration reforms, said the fate of Ms. Veliz and a million other illegal immigrants rests on whether Mr. Obama gets re-elected.
