That’s isn’t a matter of smart vs dumb. That is a farcical process subverting the judiciary to abuse someone’s rights.

If the judge had integrity he would resign or be disbarred.

It was a reference to the quote above which is saying the reason individual people loose is not because they are dumb but because they are unable to match their opponents resources.

How can individuals defend themselves when the system and corporations subvert their rights.

A complicating factor here is that when a child is separated from their parents and put into foster care a guardian ad litem can be assigned who have been known to argue that it's in the best interests of the child to remain in the US regardless of whether the parents have been returned to their country of origin.

He is asking an infant who is incapable of speech whether he understands legal rights.

That’s an insult to the concept of justice.

Agreed. Unfortunately our justice system has been turned into a legal system. Legalities are more important than justice and it's sickening.

What?

"It is emphatically the province and duty of the judicial department to say what the law is."

Just because it is supposed to be their duty does not mean that they are actually performing that duty with any regularity.
