The Senator should be burned at the stake. Next someone will want to burn at the stake anyone that doesn't believe in God, or maybe anyone that does believe in God. Where can I move to where all this idiocy is not taking place? Can I find the Gulch on Google Maps?

Hello allosaur.
Interesting how tyrants always portray and see themselves as righteous saviors of humanity...

This shows what an ignoramus this clown is! The RICO law is used to prove a criminal conspiracy. It is also appropriate when defending the Constitution such as in the 2nd Amendment case whereas a "wheel of conspiracy" exists between legislators, law enforcement and the judiciary (in some instances).

The individual for instance, by being denied the right to carry (in NJ for example) is turned down after a valid application is submitted and is turned down with basically a simple "you don't have a need for it" response.

The wheel of a conspiracy is basically denying a person their Constitutional right to carry a firearm. The conspiracy is between the legislative (passing laws that infringe), certain governors (Chris Christie in NJ) who sign this extra-constitutional legislation, law enforcement that rejects the applications without cause (and as in NJ, without showing the applicants what the criteria is). This is a conspiracy to deprive a person of their Constitutional rights.

As such, the wheel of conspiracy can be demonstrated and redress should be available. The circuit court (3rd) could also be named in such a conspiracy because it out of hand rules without legal groundwork against the innocent individual hence ripe for a real RICO lawsuit.

Senator Sheldon in addition to being an idiot is also totally ignorant as to what the RICO law actually hence the stupid statement from an ill-informed legislator (so what else is new?).

I guess I would have to say "of course" it contains global warming crap. In today's "intellectual"/political environment, it would have to. In particular a trade agreement, with lots of secret clauses. Another educated guess is that the West will bear the brunt of any anti-Industrial eco-crap-regulations, "carbon caps" etc...while the poor "developing" countries, like China, will be exempt.

But let's not let the other guilty parties off the hook: it is the RINO's in Congress who are supporting O on this, due to their misunderstanding of "free trade". While the Democrats, under pressure from the unions, based on THEIR own misunderstanding of free trade, are in this case, the opposition.

Alice in Wonderland, anyone?

Will they take the same approach to those that claim fracking damages the water supply, or that gmo corn is unsafe, or that vaccines cause autism?

Some ecokooks cannot stand dissent at all.
A Gulcher (forgot who) put on RFK Jr. before. I never forgot this clip.
Maybe we should view it again, since the Gulch keeps picking up newbies--

Whoever first posted the above tell us who you are so we may applaud you again.

And now they change the data.

I just read that 0's trade agreement includes global warming crap. It just isn't going to go away no matter how bad the weather gets over the next 10 years. when we no longer have much of a summer and we can't grow enough food to feed the country these idiots will still be blaming the cold conditions on global warming.

You mean as they are exempt from Social Security, I believe Obamacare etc...? It wouldn't surprise me if there were an exemption from the mother of all organized crime syndicates: The Feds themselves...

Galileo was convicted of heresy... some people are so afraid of dissent they must silence the opposition. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

One of the skills of lawyers is to convert A to B by the use of skilled argument. A bill gets passed to manage organized crime and it's used for a waiter and his tips. A bill gets passed to manage navigable waters and it becomes a tool to manage all water that might go into navigable waters.

Does RICO have a stipulation that con-gress is exempt from prosecution under RICO?

Thus proving that true, irrational fanatics/true believers will stop at nothing to silence their critics. Why waste court time? Why not just burn them at the stake, or stone them to death in the public square? (RICO is a slightly more convoluted way of doing just that, of course.)

A couple of years ago, I received a call from a detective from the sheriff's office in a neighboring county. It seems that a young man who was waiting tables at a local restaurant was increasing his tips on credit card receipts, and mine was one of them. Since he had done this more than once that day, the guidelines dictated that he would be charged under RICO since it was "an ongoing criminal enterprise". The detective thought that this was ridiculous, and asked if I would agree to restitution (10 bucks) and the assurance that he would agree to probation. The detective was asking each of the victims to go along with it, and I agreed.
This is an example of how absurd these cases can become. RICO was intended to bust up organized crime (the kind that isn't government) and gets perverted into all kinds of nonsense.

RICO law is outrageous and most parts of it are unConstitutional. Not only are the statutes overly broad and vague, but for those charged with crimes they cannot divulge information with their own attorneys in most cases - disrupting the ability to know their accusers and get a fair trial.
