Can you tell me how to get to Sesame Street?
She even donned one of her “impwessive” black robes.
Unfortunately, her uh, jurisprudence wasn’t as impressive:
Seriously, Justice Sotomayor. Goldilocks went into Baby Bear’s house – uninvited, mind you – and then sat in his chair and broke it. Since when are ignorance and exhaustion defenses to trespass? She doesn’t even have a case for private necessity!
And really, a Supreme Court Justice is smart enough to know that there’s no way glue can fix a chair that wasn’t even sturdy enough to hold a puppet. Goldilocks owes Baby Bear a new chair – or at least the fair market value of the old one.
How much could that possibly cost? $5? Baby Bear was robbed.
Someone should advise him to file a petition for rehearing en banc before the end of the current term. If the warrantless GPS tracking case is any indication, some members of the Supreme Court have a higher respect for the sanctity of private property than does Justice Sotomayor.
Hey – it may just be a chair, but it was Baby Bear’s chair. Goldilocks can’t go around breaking things as part of a quest to make her life “just right.”
