Remember this is just an appeal on the injunction issued a week or so ago It is not an appeal of the PACT law itself
Of course, the plot continues. It is important to note though that the law is not just going down quietly, there are people fighting its legality. Ken
@Snifs: I bet you’re hoping I don’t start asking about it again. lol 
@enten-eller :>)
No update yet, but it was supposed to be heard today, but apparently this happened yesterday:Cigarette Truck SeizedKen
Wow! That’s wild, devilock – “clear retaliation” @Snifs: I’m gonna try really hard not to.
Not sure it is “clear” but the natives think so. Ken
massacres have happened over less.
True And today’s updateRuling later in the week after yesterday’s day in court.I like this judge calling out the fed that it is about money and not about protecting “the children”. Ken
devilock that is a fantastic article!!! the best I’ve read thus far Great find mate
I basically google pact act click the “news” link and see what is up. I take particular interest in this as it is another example of the government in dischord with the will of the people. Such disconnects show a failure in the representative based system and I find those noteworthy in these times. Ken
In short when it can be seen that they are not working “of the people, for the people and by the people” such cases can shine a light into who they are actually working for. Ken
My problem has always been who are the people? Which the people are we talking about. Seriously if you could just do things for the people we wouldn’t have any need for goverment cause the people would just do what they need to do but there are no the people happily in my opinion.
George Carlin once said that the Nazi’s and the Axis powers may have lost, but Fascism won. Ken
I love carlin but I have to ask when where people so free??? When was that?
@devilock: Yup.
Fascism didn’t win, communism did. But really, it’s capitalism.
Well throughout the years the Government have continued to change things to benefit themselves. Say for example. We started with a small government with a president, a HOR(LOL never notice that was whore), and a Congress. These were made so people could make laws and govern the people, but they couldn’t just pass a law the people had to vote on it. Back then just the people voted. Even for the president, the people just voted. Who ever won from the votes of the people won for good. Now days, it doesn’t really even matter who you vote for, the electoral college will vote for you. Also, since when do you have to tax the shit out of something just because it does something not normal to you. Oh this liquid if you drink it makes you where you cant walk straight if you drink to much of it, and it makes you pee a lot. Well lets put tax on it. OH this stuff if you put it in your cheek, or lip, or dry it out and smoke it, give you a little buzz. Well we can’t have that, lets put a tax on it. And then, Oh this guy found some black stuff that comes out of the ground that we could use in our automobiles to help them run better, and that if you filter it you can make other types of liquids that will ignite on fire that can be used in various things. Well we can’t have the citizen making all the profit, Lets get involved and put a tax on it, since everybody will have to rely on this for years to come. Don’t know if there any weed smokers here but I used to smoke all the time, been about 6 months now, but the reason Weed isn’t legal yet is because the government makes more off of fines for the drug, than they would taxing it if it was legal. i mean whats so bad with a Normal Person making a Little Profit. Sorry for my ranting just venting a little.
Given the history I always thought it would be more accurate to say “of the lawyers, for the lawyers and by the lawyers”…
