I'm sure the New Zealand Supreme Court is awesome, but I wonder how much traction this would've gotten if it was not publicized all around the world...

- te_chris 13y agoI'm not sure what you're trying to say? That NZ has a corrupt judiciary? It may be incestuous, but I think that's a (very big) stretch to call it corrupt and imply that, were it not for the media attention, it would be for sale.
- umsm 13y agoNot at all. When this story first made headlines, I thought: Why did the NZ government allow the US to do this on their land in the first place? I just noticed that in the states, sometimes you don't necessarily get treated fairly in edge cases until you make a lot of noise (blogs, videos, etc.). Of course, IANAL and I have no idea how the legal system works...
