How long before amazed judges across the nation start hearing the "Cannon Gambit" in their

courtrooms?

"Your Honor, the sign merely said that 70 mph was the "speed limit", not the "ABSOLUTE speed limit. How was I supposed to know that 92 was too fast? That cop just stopped me because he saw my 'Trump Won!' sticker!"

"Judge, the bank has a sign that says 'Over 37 million dollars available now!' They did not say 'to loan'; they said AVAILABLE. And, besides, I did not write checks for anywhere near 37 million dollars!"

"I deny possessing a 'FULLY AUTOMATIC' firearm, Your Honor. That rifle may be able to spray over 300 rounds per minute, BUT, Your Honor, it will not fire a single bullet UNLESS I PULL THE TRIGGER! How is that 'fully automatic'?"

This virus will spread unless contained quickly .

If you are a liberal or POC, the law still applies to you and the consequences will be applied to the Fullest Extent that the Republicans in the Justice system can get away with.

We are already on the way to becoming 2nd class citizens.
