Politics & Government - 28 August 2006

I read about a man who was ticketed for taping over the state slogan on his car license plate. He claimed infringement of free speech and won (US Supreme Court).
So my question is how!? It seems to me there was no issue about his speech...the slogan is not his speech but the state's. He can no more choose to cover up the slogan than to drive without a plate or license. Didn't he implicitly agree to adhere the plate to his car, as is, by applying for a license in the first place?

Is gambling (poker) allowed in the US Army? Are there ever any Texas Hold Em' games in the Army? That form of poker has really caught on.

Somewhere there must be a balance point between total freedom with no security, and total govt surveillance with no liberty or privacy. But what is that balance point? If you could rewrite all the laws (and the Constitution if necessary), where would you draw that line?

Or put another way, what would the govt have to show to be able to limit your freedom and intrude on your privacy? That some serious threat exists somewhere? That some significant threat exists and you might be involved? That you personally are a threat? And how much proof is needed to justify the intrusion or regulation? Clear and convincing evidence? Probable cause? Reasonable Suspicion? Just a hunch?

I'm not asking whether any existing programs are good or bad, legal or illegal. Just where you think the legal lines should be drawn. Best answer goes to the most clearly written and logically consistent argument supporting why you would draw the line there, whether I agree with it or not.

I am for either a PI or a police officer who does investigative work, and might be able to help me out with some information. Please don't respond if you don't have knowledge of the persons record. This is a serious matter; I'm an adult, not a kid looking to spy on someone.

work hard and save their money and go to a country that is easier to get into? Than they won't have to break laws. Or don't they care that they are law breakers and criminals. Are they really that low?

why don't people mind that we pay for AIDS related care when AIDS is also preventable?

And please don't slam me as "hating" people with AIDS, because this is not a suggestion that we stop paying for AIDS related care.
