Answer to all societal problems? Spy on people more.

Careful, one might think you don't like big brother.

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Anything done under the guise of being for the safety of the people is an unconstitutional lie.

I uh...

I...

Yeah I got nothin'

At least she is busy doing 'other stuff' and not making bills and laws.

 

[bwframe]

That's my kinda party...

 

[ArcadiaGP]

This shouldn't need to be said... but never get into a relationship w/ anyone you claim authority over.

Also, the iron cross isn't a necessarily "nazi" thing, that's a bit of an assumption.

 

[bwframe]

What if it's the other way around? Can I still do my boss?

Casual prediction - 'this will not end well.'

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Sounds like mutually assured destruction

Well. Depends on company policy and whether he consents. But I don't have a problem with it. Better have an exit strategy though.

Since the Civil Asset Forfeiture thread is closed, I'll drop this here.

S.C. Judge Rules the Obvious: It's Unconstitutional for Police to Seize and Keep People's Property Without Proving They Committed Crimes

That's not going to stand. It'll go to SCOTUS, and the chamber-o-commerce justices will overturn that.

While I have not researched it, I suspect that states all have animal cruelty laws that balance animal cruelty against things like hunting/trapping. Different states have different approaches to that. And that's the way is should be.

If this passes, there will be a federal standard that federal police can enforce in federal court irrespective of a state's citizens' sentiment about the matter. DC will dictate.

Think NFA applied to pets.

Yeah, and marijuana is still illegal federally. Haven't you heard about all those fed raids on pot dispensaries in the states that have legalized it? No? Me either. Maybe this will be the same. All I know is that stories of animal abuse really get my hackles up. Probably second only to rape and child abuse.

Well, since the "Nazi era" was basically in the 1930's and 1940's and she's only 32 years old... So she got tattooed over 40 years before she was born?

How dare you assume that a "boss" must be a male! My boss is a female. Harrumph!

I got nothing. It's not a Nazi tattoo, but Nazi-era? What does that even mean?

 

[nonobaddog]

It's history.

 

[jamil]

People use imprecise language all the time. It's just colloquial. They didn't mean that Nazis got this tattoo during the Nazi era. Or maybe they did, I don't know. They meant to communicate that it was a tattoo of a Nazi era symbol. I believe they said it was a tattoo of the iron cross, which actually predated Nazi Germany. So they got that wrong too.
