Quote by James Bovard
The vision that the founding fathers had of rule of law and equality before the law and no one above the law, that is a very viable vision, but instead of that, we have quasi mob rule.
Summary
This quote suggests that the founding fathers of a country had a vision of a society governed by the principles of rule of law, equality, and no one being exempt from legal consequences. However, in reality, this vision has been distorted as the quote describes the prevailing situation as "quasi mob rule". It implies that instead of upholding the founding principles, the society is now governed by the whims and influences of a disorganized and impulsive collective.
