I agree that they shouldn't allow someone to have a primered car with no engine on blocks in the middle of their yard for 6 months but that isn't about freedom of expression. The way she should approach this is that anyone who puts a "for sale" sign up in their yard needs to be fined as well. I also don't think you should be allowed to post business advertisement up in your yard but again, that isn't a constitutional right. Also, not all constitutional rights are without limit; I cannot yell fire in a theater and I have to wait a few days for a hand gun so I don't know. I would assume that she is also not allowed to have a satellite dish or an above ground pool in her yard either. Since this ordinance is not targeting speech directly it is probably legal. It would be worth it for her to contact a lawyer.<BR/><BR/>I'll pass on making a post out of it as I am sure you have your team of experts already pondering the legality of this.Toad734https://www.blogger.com/profile/01450263690181812924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9410473.post-1142018376019248022006-03-10T13:19:00.000-06:002006-03-10T13:19:00.000-06:00http://abcnews.go.com/US/print?id=1709692I expect ...http://abcnews.go.com/US/print?id=1709692<BR/><BR/>I expect you to rally for this poor woman's plight.

Does the earth go through cooling and warming cycles? Absolutely, remember the ice age? Thank God for global warming in that instance. Do vehicle and coal emissions produce greenhouse gases that trap reflected heat in the atmosphere? Absolutely. Is the earth going through a natural warming trend as it would on its own or are we causing it? Is it a little bit of both? That is the debate you are referring to.Toad734https://www.blogger.com/profile/01450263690181812924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9410473.post-1141936615886911272006-03-09T14:36:00.000-06:002006-03-09T14:36:00.000-06:00TOaD...we rag on EVERYTHING....finding humor in al...TOaD...we rag on <B>EVERYTHING</B>....finding humor in all this shit is a means of survival.<BR/>And you should see how pretty I am because I don't allow my brows to furrow all the time:)<BR/><BR/>Besides...you came stomping into my blog flinging feces from the get-go. THAT is why no one takes you seriously.<BR/>You've said some pretty ungentlemanly things to me, too. <BR/>We're elephants....and we never forget:)<BR/><BR/>My blog and readers/contributors are the most divers group of people I have ever encountered in my life, and we hardly all always agree on everything.<BR/>If you didn't pick one post out of 200 everytime you popped in to comment you'd see that.

Your phrase didn't make sense, plain and simple. When the neocons say "off your meds" that is because they don't have a come back for the information that was just presented. Of course I didn't have a comeback for what you said because I don't know what you meant. <BR/><BR/>Most places don't sell porn, most places dont sell guns, whats your point. The point is that they wouldn't allow a place to open if it sold porn, performed abortions or sold 50 cent cds. No one knows for sure how these rules would be enforced and who would enforce them it just opens a lot of scary doors. What makes me think they would stop with just one town?<BR/><BR/>Of course, there is already a Utah but taking nude photos is still legal and you can still get an abortion.<BR/><BR/>And no, I don't do the same shit on your blog. I always present data and evidence to support my claims and arguments and you always call me a loonie socialist. Pictures of frogs jerking off does not count as being "adult". Your readers always start in with ad hominem attacks and skirt the issues and just talk about their ideal world and express their opinions, not facts.<BR/><BR/>A neocon is like a moonbat only opposites.
