Please pass to anyone who is thinking about booking a holiday in Europe. I would like to introduce my new web site to you, my house in North France sleeps up to 10 people. It is very close to St.Michel and the WWII Normandy landing beaches. Please visit http://lomas.chat.ru for more information. Why look through brochures when you can browse completely freely? http://lomas.chat.ru

Why don't they charge him with conspiracy to murder in the first degree then? Presumably because they don't have a case. Wait, conspiracy needs others involved, right?

Many private detectives would be out of business if that were the case. Maybe Bell was simply going to complain to his congressman about them. Must be sure you have the exact Jeff Gordon. > > As evidence of Bell's malicious intent, London showed the jury a > photograph of four guns that Bell legally owned up until the IRS > raided him in April 1997 during a prior prosecution.

They are afraid of guns they had already probably confiscated?

Woops. Thought crimes and ownership crimes. Maybe we are slowly being prepared for integration into a system like communist china.

And bayonets? Holy shit, next thing you know Bell might have a hankering to put a sling on his rifle. Maybe a cleaning kit or two.

Were it not for a jury, Tanner could simply pronounce him summarily guilty and be done with it. Not to worry though, its unlikely the jury has any concept of their rights. jim ************ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- POLITECH -- Declan McCullagh's politics and technology mailing list You may redistribute this message freely if it remains intact.
