In typical twisted authoritarian logic, somehow a measure passed by voters is unconstitutional. And, of course, bureaucrats are using taxpayer money to fund the lawsuit against its citizens.
When societies start falling apart you see the most insane occurances happen.
The attorney representing the cities in the lawsuit said the county’s legal authority is cut and dry.
“The state can dictate what cities are authorized to do or prohibit the cities from doing things. There’s nothing in the Missouri Constitution that provides the county to do the same thing,” said attorney John Young.
In other words, politicians can mandate that the citizens be extorted by removing due process and sending them tickets in the mail. However, if the citizens try and stop this act of extortion, it is “unconstitutional” and their consent is no longer needed.
On Tuesday, FOX 2 News in St. Louis, looked into the cost of this ridiculous suit. They reported that St. Peters could pay between $500,000 and $750,000 and the cost to St. Charles County government could be up to $150,000.
But where would this money come from? Simple, it would come from the very people they are attempting to sue!
It is estimated that the lawsuit could take years to resolve in the courts. And so continues the ridiculous and vicious cycle of the state.
Im sure they can do more than one thing at a time.
