Comment on Supreme Court rules that Bribing Political Candidates is now legal! by christina anne knight

this is one of those rulings by the conservative court that will eventually be reversed because it is based on bad reasoning as well as bad law. it is easy to see how money can be equated with influence or access, but how it can be equated with speech is beyond me (unless of course you completely distort the english language, and dispense with rational thought). i wonder do these conservative justices really think that it was the intent of the founding fathers that the rich and powerful should have more (not just more but considerably more) right to influence government policy than the rest of us? these clowns have the nerve to criticize the reasoning behind the right to privacy that legitimizes the right to an abortion.

Comment on Health Care Law Unconstitutional – For Now by Jane the health care now

I have been browsing online greater than three hours lately, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty value enough for me. In my view, if all site owners and bloggers made excellent content as you did, the internet will probably be a lot more helpful than ever before.

If a minor willingly sends a half nude picture of themselves is it pornography or self promotion?

Comment on NFL Anti-trust decision by Oscar Trejo

I have reason to side with Drew Brees on this issue. The NFLP should not be considered a single entity. Doing so would only encourage further franchises from following in their footsteps. As the previous person stated this does not mean that every single entity will seek to take advantage of their customers, however, it is heading in that direction. If franchises such as the NFLP is allowed to be a single entity then there is no reason why any other franchise would not do the same. Although, I am a huge NFL fan, I don’t think it would be wise or ethical to allow the NFLP to become one entity.

Comment on Irony in Ohio or Does the Constitution not Apply in Akron? by Oscar Trejo

I agree with the rest of the posts on here. I believe William-Bolar is being made an example of by Brian Poe and the Akron administration. I mean how is it possible that they would specifically hire a private investigator ONLY to spy and follow her. I wonder what the taxpayers of Akron, Ohio thought about that. I agree with Professor Houser’s comment in class over this issue. This has to be a race issue, because I mean how many other people do this….I bet there are dozens of other people in Akron, Ohio doing the same thing. Yet none of them are being thrown in jail or fined $30,000. In the end I guess this is just an issue of Poe and the Akron administration not believing in the ruling of Brown v. Board of Education, which stated that public schools must be integrated.

Comment on Are teens who engage in “sexting” child pornographers? by Andrew Adams

To me, child pornography is implied as a person over the age of 18 posting or taking sexually explicit pictures or videos of someone under 18. A minor who is sending or posting pictures of themselves should not be a felony or misdemeanor charge. No one forced her to take those pictures and no one forced her to send them anywhere. Why should it ever be illegal to take a picture of yourself naked? And if it is your picture why are you not free to do whatever you want with it. Obviously no institution should legally be allowed to publish any explicit pictures of minors, but a text from one minor to another is private and warrants no criminal charges. If these actions are illegal, then minors should be educated on these facts at a young age because those are serious charges and much too harsh for a young, confused, and hormonal teen.

Comment on What do you think about website accessibility? by Chris Wacker

Chris Wacker — Mon, 09 May 2011 15:56:40 +0000

It is my personal belief that Target should not be held responsible to insure that Americans with disabilities can visit their websites and enjoy the complete funtionality of the said website. If you are a blind person then I really do not believe that you should be surfing the internet and holding others liable for your specific problem. The internet was not designed for those without their sense of sight. Therefore it is an unreasonable request for those people to demand equality on the Internet.

Comment on “You have the right to use your rights” by Chris Wacker

Chris Wacker — Mon, 09 May 2011 15:50:46 +0000

If I was being interrogated by the police and they said to me, “you have the right to use any of these rights” I would not have the slightest clue as to what they were talking about. Eventually I would figure out that I still have my right to an attorney and the right to remain silent, however it seems to me that the speech chosen is intentially misleading and confusing in order to help with more confessions.
