Bangladesh has a stronger form of freedom than its people understand. Their common law is something that people can use to overcome any governmental statute law. The below quote doesn't express this clearly, but it is a hold-over from the time Great Britain ruled.
The legal system of Bangladesh is based on a common law system. However, unlike other common law jurisdictions, Bangladesh's Supreme Court has the power to not only interpret laws made by the Parliament, but to also declare them null and void and to enforce fundamental rights of the citizens. Although founded on the English common law system, the laws of Bangladesh take a statutory form, which are enacted by the legislature and interpreted by the higher courts.
What this means is that the laws that the government sets in place are not as important as one might think. It's the same for the USA.
The thing that is happening in Bangladesh and the USA is, the media and the courts are training the people so that they think that they can only use civil law. This is turning the countries into civil law countries, simply by making the people unaware of the strength of common law.
The people of the USA, Britain, and Canada should take this to heart, and realize that they are being overcome by their ignorance, and by all the fanfare the media places on elections.
