Translated from Latin, "Let Justice Be Done, Though the Heavens Fall?" Be careful what you wish for, sobbies! Don't say it if you don't mean it...

It should be "caelum", also there should be no comma. But that's how they read it on FB, I guess.

I'm actually almost impressed that it cites the Lord Mansfield decision of 1772, which effectively abolished slavery throughout the British Empire, and was foundational to the American Abolition movement. It makes a weird kind of sense.

Then again, are they saying they're not beholden to the US government because they're still working under imperial law? 🤔

'Cause that's where I draw the line! 😡
