This might be unconstitutional
2008-05-06 23:42:00 ACTIVIST JUDGE MARK HAYES SENTENCES SPARTANBURG TEEN TO TWO CENTURIES IN PRISON FOR ROBBERY, BURGLARY I’m not exactly a Constitutional law scholar, but I’m pretty sure that sentencing a 19-year-old kid to nearly 200 years in prison for a couple of robbery and burglary charges might not gel so well with the Eighth Amendment. So I’m guessing Cory Demond Linder, who sentenced to 196 years behind bars after pleading guilty to three counts of first-degree burglary, one count of second-degree burglary, two counts of armed robbery and one count of possession of a pistol during a violent crime, will have a pretty good case for a reduced sentence when his case is appealed. [Deputy Solicitor Barry Barnette] said Circuit Judge J. Mark Hayes II sentenced Linder to three 40-year sentences on the first degree burglary charges, two 30-year sentences for the armed robbery charges, a 15-year sentence for the second-degree burglary charge and another year-long sentence on the posses...
UK Court Invalidates Terrorist Asset Freezing Regime as Unconstitutional
2008-04-24 19:54:00 Today, the UK's high court invalidated the country's asset freezing regime against terrorists, ruling it to be unconstitutional. The ruling has been described as devastating to the UK's strategy against terrorism. It was based on the court finding that the UK government could not simply implement UN Security Council resolutions directly, but had to go to Parliament first to get them authorized. It is not clear from initial reports whether this means that the government is supposed to go to Parliament...(read more)

Telecom Retroactive Immunity - UnConstitutional?
2008-03-08 21:37:00 So, I'm sitting at home, reading over the Constitution (don't laugh, some people like to golf, this is my hobby), and I came across a VERY interesting section and came to a startling conclusion No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed. What that means is, is that Congress cannot pass a law to be retroactive in dealing with past illegal activities. And of course, with the above sentence, you immediately begin to think of the telecommunications retroactive immunity deal that President Bush and some members of Congress are trying to push through. It is the job of Congress to know their responsibilities when it comes to the Constitution, and if they fail in that, then they are knowingly passing a law that is against the Constitution. People don't seem to understand that the telecommunications companies that spied on ordinary Americans have committed VERY serious crimes and that's why they are being sued for billions of dollars. If members of Congress pass this legis...

Grantor's Tax Update - Court Rules NVTA Taxing Powers Unconstitutional
2008-02-29 21:14:00 Today, the Virginia Supreme Court ruled unconstitutional the taxing powers given to the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority (NVTA). This gives serious doubt as to whether the Grantor's Tax will remain in effect. The Grantor's Tax was increased by 500% beginning January 1, 2008 as part of the NVTA's plan. Governor Tim Kaine and the Virginia General Assembly originally empowered the NVTA to collect specific taxes in Northern Virginia to spend on transportation improvements in the region. Part of these taxes included the "Grantor's Tax" paid by home owners when selling their homes. The NVTA went to an Arlington court to confirm its authority to sell bonds against the increased tax revenue that would be collected. Loudoun County immediately jumped in to oppose the NVTA. The case then made its way up to the Virginia Supreme Court, which heard arguments on January 8, 2008 and ruled on it today. Those who settled between January 1, 2008 and today can contact the NVT...

unconstitutional bills ... Are our congressmen/women stupid???
2007-10-19 19:27:00 The Constitution of the United States does not provide for anything that would not equally be given to all citizens of the United States. Davey Crockett found this out when he supported a charity bill only to nearly lose his job the next time elections came around.

Ron Paul: Unconstitutional Government Has Created a War Crisis
2007-08-23 18:22:00 The following is a statement from Republican presidential aspirant, Ron Paul: Not all the media are biased. A local newspaper in New Hampshire reported on an annual GOP bbq in the town of Hollis. It could be called "the Ron Paul show," they said, since the far bigger crowd than usual consisted mostly of our supporters. One volunteer even rented an airplane and flew a wonderful sign around the sky. What great, creative, self-starting people I?m meeting, at every stop, all of them united by a love of America and American freedom. Politics is usually about division. But this campaign is just the opposite. Not only are our volunteers a bunch of happy warriors, but they also practice the virtues of tolerance and peace, just as they want the nation to do. The other day, the state chairman of an opposing campaign (not in New Hampshire!), angrily tore a sign out of one of our supporter's hands and trashed it. Different people with different beliefs might have responded differen...
