	I think his mistake was to assume that the legal system
	can be 'hacked'. But there's no point in trying to outsmart, at
	their own game, the people who have the self-granted power to 

	1) create whatever 'law' they want
	2) 'interpret' it in whatever way they want
	3) kill amybody who doesn't obey
	4) etc.

	But he did get some popular support...Maybe the moral of the
