    What do you expect? These people still have a queen, after all.

    it sort of begs the question, are they or aren't they?

    At any point in the process the lawyer involved can apply to resign from profession rather than face public discipline.

    They aren't crazy, they're out of control fascists. And Levant is as ass, albeit an ass who is quite right in this case.
