Final Score - McVeigh: 168 Feds: 1
by Eric Cordian 20 Jun '01

20 Jun '01

As I was watching the coverage of the Tim McVeigh execution, I couldn't help think that it was bigger than the coverage of the moon landing in 1969. How the definition of what unites us as a nation has changed since then. Technological excellence, versus an absolute exercise of unbridled state power against a single unarmed individual, who no longer poses a threat to anyone. While most of us would define "terrorism" as violence against civilians and civilian infrastructure for the purpose of sending a political message, the US government cleverly defines it as any violence by a subnational group designed to influence opinion. Thus, in the minds of our government, it is not killing that is wrong, it is presuming to do so without the Imprimatur of statehood, and the power to defiantly thumb ones nose at the logical consequences of ones actions. Tim McVeigh's crime then becomes not "murder," but "impersonating a government." I can forgve him for that. Tim McVeigh's legacy is that it's going to be a *real* long time before the Federal Government again attacks its citizens with tanks and snipers for simply saying "no" to a government official, and the term "collateral damage" is never going to be smugly used again to describe dead children killed by the American military in some country on the receiving end of a "message" from our President. I think that's a GoodThing(tm). History should remember Tim McVeigh as a decorated Gulf War veteran, who gave his life to save his country, albeit in a rather creative and not universally appreciated way. I can forgive him for that too. -- Eric Michael Cordian 0+ O:.T:.O:. Mathematical Munitions Division "Do What Thou Wilt Shall Be The Whole Of The Law"

Rental Cars Now Big Brother Enabled
by Eric Cordian 20 Jun '01

20 Jun '01

Amusing little story about a minor rental car company that installed GPS in all its vehicles, and added fine print to its contracts to say that they will dock clients $150 each time they exceed the posted speed limit. One customer was unamused when they lifted an extra $450 off his debit card, and is taking them to court. http://www.newmassmedia.com/nac.phtml?code=new&db=nac_fea&ref=16435 ----- Coming to small claims court: Roadrunner vs. Acme Rent-a-Car. By Colleen Van Tassell Published 06/14/01 James Turner is taking Big Brother to small claims court. Turner's taking his own car. Big Brother's driving a rental. A rental outfitted with a high-tech device that tracks your every move. One that records your speed. One that enables rental car agents to rip off unsuspecting drivers. ... When Turner signed Acme's rental agreement last October, he didn't notice the warning at the top of the contract that read: "Vehicles in excess of posted speed limit will be charged $150 fee per occurrence. All our vehicles are GPS equipped." ... When he returned to New Haven on a Sunday night, he drove to an ATM to get some cash and discovered his account was drained. There were three mysterious $150 withdrawals. ... -- Eric Michael Cordian 0+ O:.T:.O:. Mathematical Munitions Division "Do What Thou Wilt Shall Be The Whole Of The Law"

Isn't Jim Choate Prime against this ruling, on the basis that it discriminates against certain radiating frequencies? He has posted to that affect before.
