Judges are stupid

Most judges appear to be just plain stupid. Judges contradict themselves, don't actually read pleadings, do not understand the subject matter, refuse to get informed or hand the case to another judge that has greater knowledge and/or fails to understand and/or apply the law and fail to see the massive impact on the lives of the citizens that have have.

The recent rulings in spam cases is a great example and an example I am familiar with. In Washington state the citizens have no protection from fraud and/or deceptive marketing as long as it is done by electronic mail [email]. How is this possible you might ask.

In the cases that have been brought to court, small companies that provide hosting and services to build and maintain websites have been put out of business because the Judge failed to listen to the person bringing the suit and then because the Judge thinks spam cases are frivolous determined that the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 preempted state law governing deceptive marketing. Judges are to stupid to see the impact on people spam has.

If somebody has three shovels in their yard and somebody steals one or two of them then they have not been harmed because they still have one to do their chores with.

This is the same thing as telling an ISP that

"They have not been harmed because they should buy the bandwidth to accommodate spam"

Or that the home owner should have accomadated the thieves and purchased more shovels and had the thieves stole all three of his shovels the home owner was still not harmed because he/she should have bought four shovels, which is what one judge actually states in one ruling. It is ridicules to say that we have to support theft and that is exactly what the judges think and believe because they are stupid.

Because the Judge thinks the case is frivolous and because the Judge doesn't want to hear a case is no reason to strip the citizens of protection against deceptive marketing, yet that is exactly what they did. Only an Internet Service Provider and/or the Attorney General can bring suit under the CAN-SPAM Act and it preempts the Washington State Laws that protect Washington Citizens.

The preemption is only because the judges found that CAN-SPAM Act preempts state law. In fact the CAN-SPAM Act states in a preemptive clause that it does not preempt state laws governing deceptive advertising.

Judges are stupid and those that refuse to do their job should be removed from the bench or voluntarily step down. Federal judges are appointed for life and therefore have a god complex and believe they are right and everybody else is wrong.
