#4 Purkey's level of comprehension became moot after the genuinely disgusting things he did. This isn't Mr Rogers or Sesame St, he need not understand anything, he needs to go.

#13 Judges that do things like this should be removed based on the "good order" clause in their appointment. They are no longer serving the Constitution and the laws passed in accordance to it, but their own political beliefs. We also need to "terminate with great prejudice" a number of others, to get the attention of others.
