GOVEROTRAGEOUS: When do you get your “rights”

New Zealand Court: Unborn Children Have No Right to Life
by Steven Ertelt | Washington, DC | LifeNews.com | 6/1/11 6:00 PM
*** begin quote ***
The New Zealand Court of Appeal has issued a legal decision saying unborn children have no legal rights under the laws in the Pacific island nation. It also ruled on whether the Abortion Supervisory Committee was improperly approving abortions on mental health grounds.
*** end quote ***
“Rights”?
When do you get “your rights”?
The NZ Court seems to feel that when they say you can have them.
There’s another school of thought that says when you can pick up a gun and defend them.
It’s when one of two sides of a conflict have enough power to hurt the other side badly enough, then we have a concession. Enough of those and we have a general acceptance of mutually agree rights.
So, when do you get yours?
And, when do the politicians and bureaucrats agreed to leave you alone?
… when there are enough people in the streets willing to kill and die for the issue.
So what IS that issue that will reverse the Gooferment as the new uncrowned King of all life?

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Church fined for excessive tree pruning
Sunday, May 29, 2011http://www.charlotteobserver.com/2011/05/28/2333197/church-fined-for-improper-tree.html
Albemarle Road church fined $100 per branch for excessive tree pruning
By Brittany Penland Correspondent
Posted: Saturday, May. 28, 2011
*** begin quote ***
Every two to three years, Eddie Sales trims and prunes the crape myrtles at his church, Albemarle Road Presbyterian Church.
But this year, the city of Charlotte cited the church for improperly pruning its trees.
*** and ***
“The purpose of the tree ordinance is to protect trees,” Johnson said. “Charlotte has always been known as the city of trees. When we take down trees, we need to replace these trees.”
Individuals who would like to trim their trees should call the city foresters to receive a free permit to conduct the landscape work.
Foresters will then meet with the person receiving the permit and give instructions on how to properly trim their trees, Johnson said.
The state Division of Forestry recommends that anyone trimming trees should be certified by the National Horticulture Board, but certification is not required to receive a permit.
On private property, fine amounts are based on the size of the tree improperly pruned. For small trees such as cherry trees or crape myrtles, the fine is $75 per tree. Excessive cutting can increase that fine to $100 per branch.
For large trees such as oaks or maples, the fine is $150 per tree.
Because there is a widespread lack of understanding on how to prune crape myrtles in the Charlotte area, Johnson said, residents found in violation regarding these trees are asked to simply replace them, and the fine will be lifted.
*** end quote ***
Guess down in North Carolina, they never heard of the First, Fourth, and Fifth Amendments. Popularly, know as Freedom of Religion, Freedom from Harassment, and Freedom from Takings.
I know what needs “pruning” in Charlotte — Gooferment.
You have to be kidding me!
Argh!

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Gooferment Internet Identity plan
Saturday, April 23, 2011With passwords “broken,” US rolls out Internet identity plan
By Nate Anderson
*** begin quote ***
NIST hopes to arrive at privacy standards that will give Internet users confidence in using such credentials, to clarify the liability that credentials providers will face should someone still manage to steal your identity, and to issue a “trustmark” that accredits participating credential providers and websites.
Public meetings on NSTIC begin in June, and NIST hopes to be funding pilot projects by 2012. Still, ordinary Internet users won’t be able to use the system for three to five years.
*** end quote ***
The Gooferment did so well with the Social Security Number, I think they should just leave everyone the hell alone.
What’s next tattoo everyone?
Kick the ISPs! They are being paid to provide access. Credit cards! That sounds like a reliable identity to me.
Argh!

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: But with out the Gooferment’s lame “social security number”
Tuesday, April 19, 2011Identity Fraud would be impossible with out the Gooferment’s lame “social security number”. Argh! Everything is so predictable!

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Justice in the Gooferment’s courts; not bloody likely

Supreme Court rejects damages for innocent man who spent 14 years on death row
By David G. Savage, Washington Bureau
March 29, 2011, 3:14 p.m.
*** begin quote ***
WASHINGTON – A bitterly divided Supreme Court tossed out a jury verdict Tuesday won by a New Orleans man who spent 14 years on Death Row and came within weeks of execution because prosecutors had hidden a blood test and other evidence that would have proven his innocence.
*** end quote ***
The essence is that, without a pattern of mistakes, one mistake is OK. IMHO even one mistake is TOO much. Where the death penalty is involved. Where the prosecutors are guilty. Goes back to my oft stated objection to Gooferment, you expect justice from the Gooferment’s courts where the Gooferment is one of the adversaries? It can’t happen.

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Raids at Orange County barber shops

Criminal barbering? Raids at Orange County shops lead to arrests, raise questions
By Jeff Weiner, Orlando Sentinel
November 7 2010
*** begin quote ***
As many as 14 armed Orange County deputies, including narcotics agents, stormed Strictly Skillz barbershop during business hours on a Saturday in August, handcuffing barbers in front of customers during a busy back-to-school weekend.
*** end quote ***
What a complete waste of time, money, and attention!
It’s an example of racist licensing laws.
Why do we need the Gooferment to insert itself in the “hair biz”?
Don’t you think that the free market can handle that?

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: The fat blue line
Friday, October 8, 2010Please read this one. Priceless!!!
http://www.lewrockwell.com/crovelli/crovelli50.1.html
Anarchy vs. Barney Fife by Mark R. Crovelli
*** begin quote ***
If our lives and fortunes were indeed dependent upon protection from a handful of people swaddled in hideous blue polyester, mankind would have long ago lost them. If human nature were truly as depraved as these arguments would have us believe, then the chubby blue line would long ago have been annihilated by its vastly numerically superior criminal adversaries. No “criminal” worth the name would be deterred from committing his favored atrocities by a small group of lightly-armed fat people, whose national reputation is tied inextricably to the donut. To even suggest that this 300 million-strong horde of savage, would-be criminals are kept at bay only by some irrational fear of blue polyester is so asinine that it makes the flat-Earthers look like geniuses by comparison.
*** end quote ***
Emphasis mine; think it’s a great zinger.

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Gooferment firemen act dumb!

Limits-of-Libertarianism Hypothetical Brought to Life in Tennessee
Katherine Mangu-Ward | October 4, 2010
*** begin quote ***
Obion County resident Gene Cranick decided not to pay the $75 fee, and then he set a fire in his backyard in two large barrels. The fire began to spread, and he called 911. The 911 operator told him that because he hadn’t paid the fee, the fire department would not respond. Cranick’s wife told the 911 operator that she would be willing to pay “whatever the cost” to hire the Fire Department to put out the fire, but was told that this was not an option. The Fire Department did not come out until the fire spread to a neighbor’s yard — the neighbor had paid the fee — and the firemen put out the neighbor’s fire but not Cranick’s.
*** end quote ***
Did he have fire insurance on his house? If he did, I bet his insurance company lawyers are hard at work reviewing their policy language.
Note Gooferment fire department; does Sears refuse to service folks who don’t buy their service plans? Of course not!
