Not that it matters much, it's clearly unlocked now.

Woo hoo!

1st Amendment is back!

Not for long. Check out the most recent Supreme Court ruling concerning "free speech" and mega-money.

Caveat: this was in no way shape or form a political statement. As my dog died last month, this forum of late is my only release mechanism. I do NOT want to be banned.

Poor dog...I remember when my first pet died, very sad...

But now I have Jamie the Parrot at my side...I hope he finally speaks this year!

Yeah, especially since, if the right species, it will probably outlive you!

Aw, Neon, at first I thought "these heartless b**tards, having a laugh over my just cooling dog's corpse and your affable words of confort".

Then I lightened up. As a prior Psittacine owner, this was pretty funny!!

A> Happy to see the thread unlocked again.
B> While off topic (would love to see a thread on this topic), I agree with the sentiment TMACK.

My quick blurb on it:

Money is not speech, but rather is a speech amplifier. Leave a bundle of money on someones porch anonymously and it will convey no information or message on its own. Add "speech", either verbal or via a note, and the same bundle will amplify it in proportion to how much is left. Calling money speech is like calling a bull horn or a power amp speech.

We have laws and ordinances preventing the use of volume amplifying equipment in every state in the US. Yet the supreme court just made it totally legal for massive corporations and special interest groups alike to bring their amplifiers onto the floor of congress. This will now legally rendering the smaller voices of "We the People" imperceptible over the noise. I for one, see nothing good coming from this ruling.
