    I guess that makes me a liberal then, because these ridiculous laws were definitely not meant for me!


    Thomas, I'm actually quote surprised she even acknowledged your comment!

    "I am a conservative. Quite possibly I am on the losing side; often I think so. Yet, out of a curious perversity I had rather lose with Socrates, let us say, than win with Lenin."

    if I have learned anything from my wife its to resist unjust laws, force the agency to enforce them, then screw them in court.

    that is the current nature of our government..

    Make stupid law <> enforce stupid law <> get sued <> lose for stupid law <> correct/remove stupid law.

    I hate this, because the cost of due process and attorneys, places justice outside the grasp of many americans

    And that type of government is legislation through judicial fiat. Not in our Constitution but regularly practiced by people who know they can not get what they want any other way.

    Oh, and some people have been looking a bit too closely at rat's asses.
