I'm not wild about the Grokster decision or the one on the reporters, although I understand both. Here's the one that's got my blood boiling. I'll have more to say on this later, but here's a quick summary:

Colorado law has not created a personal entitlement to enforcement of
restraining orders. It does not appear that state law truly made such
enforcement mandatory. A well-established tradition of police discretion has
long coexisted with apparently mandatory arrest statutes.

This is the Supreme Court, holding that, if you get a protection order against someone and the police don't enforce it and that person kills you, you don't have a case against the police department that didn't enforce it.

The case is Town of Castle Rock v. Gonzales. As I said, I'll read the whole thing and write more about it later. Right now, I need to study for the bar.

It seems to me we are in need of some new thinking in the legal community.
