    There should really be a 24/7 protest in front of Cannon’s residence - the continued stalling is a corruption of justice.

          Even if it were fired from space, a cannon large enough to fire a Cannon projectile would need to have a muzzle velocity of at least 1467 ft/sec to offset Earth’s orbital speed and begin the fall towards the Sun. While modern high velocity cannons can far exceed that for small solid projectiles, we’re talking about firing a federal judge-shaped fleshy mass. Even if such a Cannon cannon were to be constructed, it is highly likely that, upon firing, its passenger would simply be turned into a non-federal judge shaped (and decidedly more juicy) fleshy mass due to the acceleration forces.

      Great idea! Hey you young go-getter progressives - You like the protesting, yeah? Think of it now - on camera, online, taking down a corrupt judge and saving the country all at the same time? Huh? It’s good, yeah? Tent city, slogans, lots of . . . y’know - community and stuff, right? Good times good times. Okay. Go!
