RE: Learn how to speak Parseltongue aka legalize
The common law WAS simple. It pretty much makes sense to everyone. All this other 'law' is created by people. We are led to believe that it is unbreakable when really it's made up/fictional. If man can make up the rules then they can also take them away. It's like a big game weighted in the favour of the ruling classes.
Someone said that rule of law can only work if it applies equally to all. When it doesn't, then it becomes tyranny.
Your description of it sucking the life out of you like a dementor was so apt!
I agree, it WAS simple. However, they now have all the other law forms mixed in with it and now it is a night mare to pull out the small threads associated with the law form that help govern the common people. It has all been bastardized and usurped. I'll speak to this in another thread as it is a topic all on its own.
