Setting constitutional precedence while standing (alone) upon ones’ conscience [referencing presiding Chief Justices, Judges and Magistrates] one ought always to be mind-fill, carefully to follow the letters of the law “line upon line and precept upon precept” as are on The Books. Those laws in essence, within a truly democratic society, ultimately reflects’ the will of the majority of its citizens; presented by elected representatives, accordingly interpreted by appointed justices of the courts and enforced by the Peace Officers of that land.

To maintain objectivity, it is unwise for judges, magistrates and peace officers to make Official Rulings relying alone upon ones’ conscience, beliefs, principles etc... The GOLDEN RULE to good governance rest within the general perception of order while in the midst of massive chaos. Making any decision solely on account of one’s personal feeling creates a perception of disorder, breathing distrust and contemptuous attitudes, and, a loss of the innocence to justice.

In a democratic society, the ability of the courts to deliver justice according to the will of the majority of its citizens and as supported by the laws of that land; an atmosphere of equality and fare dealing ought to be the generally accepted perception. A perception forged in the fact that it is not by the spirit but by duly following accordingly to every word written in the books of the law. Considered wise are the rulers whom are subservient onto their own words; living day to day based upon what was written and not upon what one believes ought to have been written.

Rule of law in the most simplistic of sense represents precisely what it is; the law rule. The written laws alone are the supreme authority of the land. Those that apply themselves accordingly under the precepts of the law ought to recognize and accept that it is not their will but rather the will of the law that dictates their actions. Rulings made hereunder must reflect what is written and ought not to be interpreted otherwise. Hence, the practitioners of law are no more than prisoners to their own craft.

Difficulties within and surrounding the law arises when disputes are mishandled. When the letters of the law are disregarded and replaced with idealistic thoughts, the law in general becomes subversive and reflects a more subjective result. Arguments are based not upon entering factual materials into evidence but by assertions of theoretic, circumstantial events and prepositions’. Law then becomes open to one’s own interpretation, unspecific in nature of its relationship to the facts of a case; resembling a construct of one’s own imaginings more so than a rational legal ruling.

Sacred ought to be considered every letter of the law wherein the precepts of truth and establishment of justice is clearly and easily derived. In this light, law significantly projects a noble like quality able of universal acceptance and strict adherence. To do otherwise would lead directly to a state of chaos, the breathing ground of the anarchists.
