And yes, one representative is making the right of women to control their lives an issue in Arizona. This is much like those creatures of control found in other states too. Arizona is a state where others can decide for you what the better course in life is to take. You have to wonder...

Living in Arizona has been a different experience than what we experienced in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Illinois. Avoiding Winter is pleasant, but the heat of the summer keeps you inside. I believe it was a record year for the number of days above a certain temperature. Winter is shorter in comparison. Would I do the move knowing what I know now. The temperature is a factor we did not take much into consideration. A record year for temperatures being...

I will try to say more about this, but for now: You might have missed it, but in August, Gorsuch published a book titled Over Ruled, which argues that there are too many laws on the books and that government officials at both the federal and state levels are enforcing them in increasingly unpredictable and unjust ways. The argument is not exactly original, but it takes on a different force when it comes from a sitting Supreme Court justice....

I am very tired as of late. Having been working with our old server partner and getting prepared to go to a new server partner. The new partner appears to be more astute. Also working with our advertising partners to get better ads. Got a meeting with the VA next week to discuss my two years in and out of Lejeune and the water. Going through rehab the second time for my back. before they cut into it. Upcoming operation. Physical therapy going on...

by Mark Joseph Stern Not going to say too much as I said my piece here; “Looks Like SCOTUS May Hold for the US on “Ghost” Guns, Angry Bear by Amy Howe at SCOTUS Blog. To sum it up, there is no defense for bullet spewing weapons not having serial numbers. Slate Jurisprudence Lawyers with bad arguments in defense of terrible causes are on a winning streak at this Supreme Court. The conservative supermajority often seems committed to laundering...

A conversation on providing for disability. The right to work as an equal also extends to the disabled. Contingencies are made for the disabled and is a key factor in having the ability to provide for themselves. Doors that open with the touch of a button. Wheelchair accommodations to go up a step or a set of stairs. Access to the use of bathrooms. Adequate desks and chairs. In which case if not available, society takes away the ability of...

I understand one has to like to read about what the upper courts are doing, how they decide, and why they make decide as they do. It is obvious why Roberts and the other five decide the way they do. I will let you figure out what the basis is for their decisions. Roberts lates has reaped a public whirlwind of well-deserved criticism. Supreme Court analysis: John Roberts knows he lost the public. – by Dahlia Lithwick SLATE You would be...

You have to go to court and just sit there and listen to the stuff being said. You sit there and go huh? Jack would understand what I am saying. Making sense is not necessarily a part of deciding law. Perfect example being rifles and pistols acquired or purchased shall have a serial number. In fact, I would take it further to include other parts making the weapon function. Here we are talking about guns or weapons which are bought partially...

Court likely to let Biden’s “ghost guns” regulation stand, SCOTUS BLOG I used the word firearms so as to include rifles also. I do not know from where the word “guns” evolved. Maybe those old Westerns? To this old Marine Sergeant, it is a firearm, a rifle or a pistol. If you were careful, one could probably assemble a firearm from various other unusable weapons to make one good one. What the law does is make illegal the sale of the types of...
