FREEDOM IS RESTORED: 1st AMENDMENT WINS!

That is not their name LOL.

@OCCOM BILL,

Okay, fine. 'Entire purpose' was a bit much. You win.

But it is one of the main purposes. And this is my point:

Besides, your examples mostly point out a need for better law enforcement, or perhaps even better law-making

Yes. Better laws would hold those who work for corporations responsible for their nefarious acts. The current setup allows people to get away with pretty much anything and face no punishment at all.

Au contraire. That most certainly is their name.

Better late than never. Good on you. If you try reading my original post with an open mind, you may find it a bit more insightful too.

@Irishk,

Well done Irishman. I was feeling rather blindsided there. Leave it to Salon to pull a fast one like that. From their own misleading article:

The Washington Times also reported that another, similarly named anti-Hillary organization, Citizens United, has sent a cease-and-desist letter for name infringement.

How about your response re: the inability to hold people responsible within corporations for the crimes they commit? Do you think that the laws should be beefed up, so that individuals within corporations who are found to have made nefarious decisions are held responsible for their actions?

At some point, you'll get it together and respond to one of my posts directly; but I would recommend actually researching the topic in question before doing so. It's easy to sit on the sidelines and laugh, much harder to be a knowledgeable participant. But you already knew that, didn't you?

I suspect this is more of a selective enforcement issue than a lack of law... but on your general premise; absolutely. Legal structures don't kill people; people do... and they should damn well be punished for it. Reckless endangerment, conduct regardless of life, depraved indifference (or whatever it's called in your jurisdiction) is likely available but largely unused. Write a petition; I'll sign it.

Gotta run.

Sorry, I wasn't aware that they were two different groups. The names most certainly are similar Laughing
