Comment Re:Could he be retried for one of the hit attempts (Score 1) 339

If he was on trial already, he can't be tried again. This was discussed during Jack Smith's prosecution of Trump, because Trump was never actually on trial. Everything The DOJ and Trump's lawyers did up to the election and the end of the prosecution was pre-trial motions. They never made it to jury selection, so Trump's trial never legally started.

Data mining isn't persecution. It can easily be a tool of persecution.

In the world we live in, we all have secrets that we may want to keep, even though we may lead blameless, productive lives today. Homosexuality, abortions, pornography, a history of sexual or drug experimentation, being HIV positive, on and on. In the right circumstances, you don't even have to have participated. Downloaded the Anarchist's Cookbook because of curiosity? Gotcha!

There are many ways to pressure good people, if a bad person has access to their private life.

And America's leaders are handing out the tools of persecution like candy at Halloween.

Of course more time would be better. However, nearly everything important can be done in 15 seconds. The really critical things. Like getting the generators at the hospital up to keep the ICU running. Closing gas mains. Taking the scapel out of the guys brain during surgery.

You can't drive home from the grocery store and strap yourself into bed in 15 seconds, but you can do a lot of really really important things in that time.

Comment What about performer and their personal agents? (Score 0) 249

Yeah, this user is one of those. Yeah, i like for me and my buddies to get our piece of the action when somebody makes money off of our work. Like, what de-flock is "AUTHORITY" any wais? A signed informed consent document owned by what type of ENTITY, the Microsoft Certificate Revocation List?

God Bless Jerry Garcia and The Grateful Dead for inviting their GUESTS to bring recording equipment to their LIVE PERFORMANCES. An incredible body of audio and video tape belongs to their FRIENDS and FAMILY to be shared in any way they see FIT.

Visit THEWELL.COM/~deadindex to see what I mean.

Also, my good friend Jim Purvis, owner of STARSHIPNET.COM in Milwaukee has a tape exchange service that allows customers to get free dead show tapes by buying the blanks from him and requesting the dates they want.

To me, that epitomizes the best qualities of a Fair Market capitalistic economic system. Note that I say Fair Market and not Free Market which is dominated by syndicates of wealthy scumsuckers.

BTW - I am not a Grateful Dead devotee, merely someone who attended a few shows and respects their talent and the scene they built by being REAL in spite of the MUSIC INDUSTRY RULES AND REGULATIONS. GOD made MUSIC and gave it to ALL PEOPLE for FREE, the greedy white man sells "IT".
