Forgot about en banc. Thanks.

The Second Circuit is TELLING, not asking, the lower court to enter a judgment of acquittal. The feds only hope is a successful supreme court apppeal.

That's what I don't get. Why isn't Monsanto spewing nuisance out into everybody's air? It's like they're sending little lawsuits out into the air and if they land on your property you are either obligated to clean them up or pay Monsanto. Isn't that what a fucking nuisance is.

Monsanto is EVIL. The wrongness of what they are doing is obvious. I am ashamed that the law allows Monsanto to get away with this.

Brodie gells!

You've seen phase one. The courts are split on the issue of whether or not a person can be compelled to provide their password. That's what the arguments have been about, so far.

Okay. The Lady has been compelled. Her lawyer says that she doesn't remember the password. The burden is on the prosecutor to prove that she does remember. How is the prosecutor going to meet that burden without putting the lady on the stand and having her testify about her mental state (memory)? No question about it, that would be a BIG 5th Amendment no-no.

Maybe we could impose a one percent tax on porn and use the proceeds to help the porn purchasers "get outside and play" with real people!

I remember the civil rights movement and the way that the majority used prosecutors as a tool to oppress the minority.

Sorry. Can't agree.

The power to investigate is the power to DESTROY. Let that sink in.

We don't want a society where the loudest bunch of shrieking zealots can pressure a criminal investigation by the mere weight of numbers. We've elected Obama and he's nominated holder and we've told him there's a big problem. We need to trust them to do the right thing.

You might not like the idea of trusting them, but there isn't a better alternative.

Sealand would be buying major risk if it contracted with Wikipedia. They'd risk their sovreignty!
