If We're Going to Start Arresting Judges, Let's Begin With This Guy

Will Grigg?s Liberty Minute

December 26, 2011

Newt Gingrich has said that if elected president, he would order the arrest of federal judges who refuse to appear before Congress to explain rulings he considers objectionable. A despicable bully named Kenneth Post, who afflicts Michigan?s Ottawa County as a district judge, appears perversely determined to make a case for Gingrich?s bad idea.

On December 2, Post jailed attorney Scott G. Millard for the supposed offense of advising his client, a 20-year-old facing a charge of minor in possession of alcohol, not to answer self-incriminating questions. Post ? who doesn?t deserve the respected title of ?judge? ? interrupted Millard no fewer than a dozen times. His manner was alternately abrasive and dismissive; he was insulting, sarcastic, patronizing, and openly contemptuous of the Constitution.

Millard?s composure never faltered in the face of the abuse. He displayed respect that Post did not deserve or reciprocate. Post ordered a Bailiff to take Millard to jail, then had the officer bring the attorney back to the courtroom so he could have an opportunity to grovel. To his credit, Millard said he would represent his clients ?according to the law.? It was for this supposed offense that the attorney was sent to jail.

If rouge judges are going to be arrested, we should start with Kenneth Post.

Let us take back the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free.
