Law Profs Call for More Litigation Against ICE
“They focus on the death of Renee Good in Minneapolis”
The left acts as if ICE was created by Trump last year. They had no complaints about ICE under Biden or Obama.
American Thinker reports:
Law professors want more litigation against ICE
A recent New York Times essay by two well known senior law professors, one the dean at Berkeley Law, the other at NYU, continues to set new standards for confusing politics with law and abusing both.
The law professors, in front of their students and the public, have been consumed with animosity toward President Trump throughout his public career in one op-ed after another, but their regard for actual constitutional law, including domestic law and order, is subordinated to what could be called “legal opportunism.”
Berkeley Law dean Erwin Chemerinsky and NYU Law professor Burt Neuborne argue in the NYT op-ed pages that anyone should be able to freely sue federal agents for “excessive force.” They focus on the death of Renee Good in Minneapolis and claim that a new public act should be created in her name — the “Renee Good Civil Rights Act.”
They trot out a lengthy argument with rules and cases, but they ignore the most fundamental aspect of citizen civil rights itself: due process, presumption of innocence, and standards of evidence. The ICE agent in question is summarily guilty — case closed.
This recent event has been sensationalized in media, as the George Floyd event was, but an investigation is not even formally underway. The same problem occurred with George Floyd. Evidence is now being reviewed from that event that suggests a corrupted case. Then-president Biden even contacted the Floyd family and declared in nationally reported media during a criminal jury case that “he prayed for the right verdict.” The law professors are similarly corrupting the public domain.

Comments
These so-called legal “professors” demonstrate that, in their minds at least, law is subject to political expediency. They have obviously not heeded the ancient lesson: “Be careful what you ask for; you may get it.”
I’d like to call for more litigation too but it is against lawyers and law colleges. They are strongly contributing to the indoctrination of law students and the destruction of the country and its way of life.

When I was teaching part-time at UC Irvine, ChemerInsky became the first dean at the newly established law school, which he shaped into a training academy for future left-wing activists. He has continued that work as dean of the UC Berkeley Law School,
I have long feared that under a Democrat president, he could be the next Supreme Court justice.
Great and we can do that as soon as Judges can be sued and charged as accessories for their bone headed decisions.
Also, after we make it legal to sue Universities for giving out useless degrees.
