A federal judge Monday afternoon ordered Tennessee to stop enforcing new rules that restricted “Occupy Nashville” demonstrators’ ability to protest in response to a lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union of Tennessee (ACLU-TN). “The state cannot arbitrarily create restrictive policies just because it does not like how people are using a public space,” said ACLU-TN Legal Director Tricia Herzfeld. “Today’s decision is the first step in restoring demonstrators’ free speech rights.” The protesters had been camped at Legislative Plaza in downtown Nashville to protest the economic and political consolidation of power since October 9. But on October 27, Tennessee enacted new rules without any public review process that eliminated their right to gather after 4:00 p.m. and implemented a 10:00 pm curfew on the plaza. The state also required protesters to pay use and security fees and to obtain $1,000,000 in liability insurance coverage prior to engaging in any assembly activity. Those rules make damn good sense. Shouldn't be any bitchin' about 'em either! You would have been happy as an Aryan in Germany between 1935 and 1945... |

There are almost always demonstrators and protestors in that area, no matter who is president. Some of the demonstrators are really wigged out, though, with signs indicating their displeasure over the Soviet domination of eastern Europe, even though that's been over for some time. DC police, for the most part, are pretty tolerant of demonstrators. We get lots of demonstrations and marches here. I went to school on the 1700 block of G street. I know all about the demonstrators in front of the white house but I guarantee you, if you pitch a tent and refuse to move, you will be in a wagon. The rule in front of the white house is you have to keep moving. It was a lot easier before Bush and 9-11 and Bush's fake war on terrorism. Not to worry. Bab Bam is going to change things for you. -- 1-20-13 The end of an error |

Atlas Shrugged is entirely too long, complex and dull a book for an ex-marine who was posted stateside to read. You seem to be the designated fill-in for Ingersoll, whose house was damaged in the storm, and his now-obvious sockpuppet, iLoogy the "non-boaterer." |
