See the problem with this is that when the perception is that the govt. is failing in its responsibilities....when you have the executive (CPS and Gov. Perry) and the Judiciary acting in concert, in what appears to many as a huge power grab.....that just causes some people to believe that the system cannot be trusted. That you cannot work through the system to make change. In other words, this is how radicalization occurs.
This is also how facism occurs. Where people assent to a loss of liberties, because the cause seems justified.
This is a situation the the govt. has handled extremely poorly.
(btw, I think the tendency towards facism is more the issue).
