How might the Supreme Court's potential review of automatic weapons laws impact current interpretations of the Second Amendment?
|
^^^^^
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Sorry, but I really can't figure out what you're trying to say, above.
Not exactly:
"An unconstitutional act is not law; it confers no rights; it imposes
no duties; affords no protection; it creates no office; it is in legal
contemplation, as inoperative as though it had never been passed."
Norton vs. Shelby County, 118 US 425 p.442
"The general rule is that an unconstitutional statute, though having the
form and name of law, is in reality no law, but is wholly void, and
ineffective for any purpose; since unconstitutionality dates from the
time of it's enactment, and not merely from the date of the decision so
branding it."
"No on is bound to obey an uncontitutional law, and no courts are
bound to enforce it."
16 Am Jur 2d, Sec 177
late 2d, Sec 256
Automatic weapons? No. The Supreme Court has never heard such a case.

And after the Gulf War, Israel could do whatever it wanted after

by no means forced, to negotiate.
Mr. Baker, to address all of your points would be impossible, but in a
nutshell, it is hypocritical for you to attack Israel's presence in
Lebanon without attacking Syria. Syrian occupation has been hostile,
and amounts to annexation. Israel's is clearly defensive. If it
were not defensive, you would see all of Lebanon occupied, and governed by
Israel. But that is not what Israel wants.

How might the documentary's revelations influence the upcoming investigations by the JD and Congress into the cult's actions and the authorities' handling?
|
The documentary interviewed Koresh and current and ex-members.
The documentary disucussed Koresh's "Christ" status inside the cult,
cult brain-washing techniques, and unusual sex practices (the leader
gets any he wants, and tells others when they can or can't). I will let
others decide if using religious authority to have sex with a minor is
technically child abuse or not.
All true.
Well, if a fire was deliberately set by members of the cult, then the
history and background of the cult is very relevant. The history
and backgournd of the Jones cult was very important in understanding
what happened at Jonestown.
Not taking into account the history and background of Koresh's cult may
also help explain why the FBI and BATF so badly predicted the reponses
they would get from inside the compund nearly every step of the way in
this badly handled affair.
It is likely that there will be at least two investigations (JD and congress)
at this point.
Interesting and conflicting details are starting to come out. I have
reverted back to wait mode to find out whether the fire was intentional
or accidental and how it started and why it spread so fast.

True - and they have brainwashed their people into thinking Jews are some sort

is also an important factor, wouldn't you say?

*he* was interested in cutting *me*.
"Anyone trained in self-defense."
Unarmed self-defense isn't for everyone. What's more, it requires
substantially more training to be safe and effective than a firearm.
It requires physical proximity and thus a greater threat to the victim,
which is a primary problem with stun guns. You have to actually touch
your assailant. Unless you're *very* good, a large, stronger assailant
can simply ignore your blows long enough to incapacitate you.

"While the Dashnaks were in power they did everything in the world to keep the
pot boiling by attacking Kurds, Turks and Tartars; by committing outrages
against the Moslems; by massacring the Moslems; and robbing and destroying
their homes;....During the last two years the Armenians in Russian Caucasus
have shown no ability to govern themselves and especially no ability to
govern or handle other races under their power."
A Kurdish scholar:

"When the Russian armies invaded Turkey after the Sarikamish disaster
of 1914, their columns were preceded by battalions of irregular
Armenian volunteers, both from the Caucasus and from Turkey. One of
these was commanded by a certain Andranik, a blood-thirsty adventurer.
These Armenian volunteers committed all kinds of excesses, more
than six hundred thousand Kurds being killed between 1915 and 1916 in
the eastern vilayets of Turkey."

[ANAS] body into small pieces to the extend that his body was not recognized.
[ANAS] At leat ten houses were destroyed by these atni-tank missiles.
If indeed Israeli soldiers killed a "Hamas Mujahid" with an anti-tank missile
then I'm almost sure that the "terrorist zionists" would not have been able
to cut up a body which was probably desintegrated by the missile.

How does the historical context of past conflicts impact current Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations?
|
Oh yeah, Israel was really ready to "expand its borders" on the holiest day
of the year (Yom Kippur) when the Arabs attacked in 1973. Oh wait, you
chose to omit that war...perhaps because it 100% supports the exact
OPPOSITE to the point you are trying to make? I don't think that it's
because it was the war that hit Israel the hardest. Also, in 1967 it was
Egypt, not Israel who kicked out the UN force. In 1948 it was the Arabs
who refused to accept the existance of Israel BASED ON THE BORDERS SET
BY THE UNITED NATIONS. In 1956, Egypt closed off the Red Sea to Israeli
shipping, a clear antagonistic act. And in 1982 the attack was a response
to years of constant shelling by terrorist organizations from the Golan
Heights. Children were being murdered all the time by terrorists and Israel
finally retaliated. Nowhere do I see a war that Israel started so that
the borders could be expanded.

or are we to assume that out of the whole of the city an off-course
missile just happened to hit that hotel at a probability of about
1 in some very large number?
Unsafe for who I wonder?

How do media censorship and selective ad placements impact public perception of gun-related issues?
|
I don't know what Traders is claiming, but it appears to me that
the Oakland Tribune has censored gun ads in the past. Likewise
for the San Francisco Chronicle, and I have never seen a gun
ad in the San Francisco Examiner.
Specifically, about a year ago on Thursdays, when Traders placed
its ads, the Chron. ad would not have any graphics representing
any handgun sale, though text could list it. The Trib. would
run a graphic of a handgun. The Examiner would not have a Traders
ad at all.
Over the past year while Oakland politicians have made a lot of noise
about measures to fight crime the Trib stopped taking the Traders
ad, then started publishing it, but without any handgun graphic, then
stopped, then started. Since the Trib. was sold some months ago it
has not had the Traders ad. During one of these non-ad interludes
a Traders employee told me that the Trib. had refused to take their
ads.
Yes, the usual Chron. Thursday ad was there today, with graphics
representing rifles, safes, etc. as usual.

How might such rhetoric affect peace efforts between Israelis and Arabs in the region?
|
It's hard to beat a car-bomb with a suicidal driver in getting
right up to the target before blowing up. Even booby-traps and
radio-controlled bombs under cars are pretty efficient killers.
You have a point.
Is this part of your Islamic value-system?
Had Israeli methods been anything like this, then Iraq wouldn've been
nuked long ago, entire Arab towns deported and executions performed by
the tens of thousands. The fact is, though, that Israeli methods
aren't even 1/10,000th as evil as those which are common and everyday
in Arab states.
"Israeli soil"???? Brad/Ali! Just wait until the Ayatollah's
thought-police get wind of this. It's all "Holy Muslim Soil (tm)".
Have you forgotten? May Allah have mercy on you now.
