[at-l] OT - Freedom of Speech was Snowshoeing VS Hiking

[rcli4 at comcast.net]

Evil Corporations is really funny.  I'm guessing that 65 percent of folks work for corporations.  Corporations are pieces of paper.  I owned a corp for 24 and a half years. I contributed to candidates and the republican party every one of those years.  I also donated more to the boys and girls club then most of the folks reading this made in those 24 years.  Frank, if your gonna talk shit, try to do it with a narrower brush.

Jim, before they're through, the Roberts court will do more harm to the country than has been thought of yet. And that's not politics. I'm talking about things like removing protected status for lots of places we hold near and dear.



I could see a lawsuit being brought that gets to the USSOC that totally takes the teeth out of the National Scenic Trails Act. Up to and including the forced return of lands siezed by eminent domain acquisitions. All it will take is the right plaintiff with enough money, coming up through the correct Federal court district. It could happen. I really hope not, though.



As I said, this isn't about politics. And for future reference to whoever may not know the difference: I AM NOT A LIBERAL!!! I just believe that people should be put before corporations. Oh well.



Hug a tree for Thomas Jefferson.

IMO The Bill of Rights was intended to protect the freedoms of individuals. Corporations are not individuals and money is not speech. Yeah, I know they are virtual persons for liability purposes but that shouldn't extend to everything else. The next thing you know they'll be granting them the vote. Same goes for unions as far as I'm concerned.
