1. The civil rights movement of the '60s will have to be done all over again, it seems.

[bahboo]

3. who would've thought...

jesus christ...

5. In the 60'[s it was civil rights for the blacks

... now it's civil rights for all of us. Everyone who isn't a Repuke, that is.

9. If one person's rights are violated, all of our rights are violated...nt

11. Beat me to it. Most people think that

MLK and other civil rights leaders worked only for the rights of African Americans. While that was their primary concern, the entire nation benefited from their achievements. We cannot let it be undone.

2. Justice Department (which is more of a Justice Dept these days) is also looking into it

[Karadeniz]

4. I wonder why Kemp wasn't also sued...he signed the thing.

[Ocelot II]

7. Because the state as a whole is the entity that acted.

You don't sue governors individually for signing into law statutes that a legislature passed. You sue the state itself.

[Karadeniz]

8. But individuals like Ruffens..,were mentioned. But I don't care...just take them to court!!!!!

6. These SOB'S need to pay

ALL LAWYER FEES! Every GOD DAM QTHUGLICON states that are pulling this shit!

[crickets]

10. Good. K&R
