How The Mighty have Fallen

[bcholmes]

Apparently Baron Black wants his Canadian citizenship back. Black relinquished his Canadian citizenship to bypass the Nickle Resolution. This is an interesting quotation:

As things now stand, if Black were convicted and receives a prison sentence, his decision to renounce his citizenship would likely scuttle any chance for him to request a transfer to a Canadian jail. Only Canadian citizens can seek a transfer here from a jail elsewhere.

I concur. The man obviously wants to have his cake and eat it, too. Citizenship isn't something you should be able to put down and pick up whenever it's convenient.

I have long been galled by that man's obnoxious sense of entitlement. I'm glad to see that he may finally get some comeuppance.

What's the point of having cake if you can't eat it?
