I stumbled upon the TvTropes page for the Book of Proverbs

And I gotta say, it really is pissing me off that only only do they not use the same translation all down the list, but they don't even consistently say which translations they're using. I don't even care which translation they use, but the stylistic whiplash is enough to give anybody a headache.

I am disappointed that the Dorothy PEZuzah is unrecognizable.

The link to "US Citizen held as 'unauthorized alien' in Florida jail" is utterly horrifying. As I've seen elsewhere, the account of his arrest is followed up with news that he was released the next day. There's a heartwarming picture of him being reunited with his tearful mother. The beginning of the follow-up article in the Florida Phoenix explains that Lopez-Gomez is a US Citizen, that he did not commit any crime, that he was taken into custody by a Florida state trooper who refused to tell him why he was being detained. It went on to explain that a Florida judge recognized there was no probable cause for the charge.

You have to read quite far down the article to realize they didn't dismiss the charge. They just "let him go" in the physical sense. They allowed him to go get something to eat, allowed him to see his family. (Did he post bond? Does he have an ankle bracelet? If he skips town and goes back to Georgia, they would probably issue a warrant for his arrest...the kind of warrant that cops use to justify deadly force.) He has to come back in a few weeks to face this groundless charge, that the judge recognizes as groundless. That the state has already been enjoined from enforcing. What kind of defense is even possible, when convincing a judge is not enough? What kind of defense is even possible, when the state is prohibited from enforcing the law?
