You only run into legal trouble if you try to sell it or transport it. Is this correct, or was I misinformed?

They hire temps from a labor service to hold the signs etc... To add insult to injury they also picket places and businesses that have nothing to do with the dispute. Not long ago they got some very bad press from a picket line at one of our local elementary schools, as they were scaring the kids traveling to and from school. Idaho law says any work done for public buildings etc... has to go to the low bid, they should have been picketing the Capitol Building, and not scaring the heck out of our kids. It's sad to see they play the same despicable games all over the country. They should be ashamed of themselves.

The first Apple 1 came out in 1976, 5 years before the IBM PC. There were Altairs and others that pre-dated even the Apple, but they were not readily available to the public like the Apple 1.

Demanding that the federal government keep it's powers limited to the enumerated powers given by the Constitution is hardly "advocating an overthrow of the Government" Your continued attempts to prove that you are not using vulgar sexual innuendos to smear the people within the Tea Party movement is laughable at best. Please give up while your behind, or should I say give up while you are a behind!

All budgets must originate in the House, and the Democrats have been in control for 5 years now. You are correct that the last 18 months has been a spending orgy that Bush could never have conceived of much less allowed to pass his desk without a veto. But there is still plenty of blame to go around for this mess on both sides.

These are the people that have to put everyone in a group, that is were all prejudice starts. Conservatives believe in individual responsibility, not in groups, we judge each person, not each group. Based on this the Democrats haven't really come all that far since the 1850s and have a long way to go yet.

There is nothing in the Constitution that gives the Federal Government the authority to set up or run anything on a national scale like Social Security or Medicare. Therefore the 10th Amendment places that power firmly in the hands of the States. For this to be done on a national scale would require another Constitutional Amendment to make it legal.

The Left's hatred of anything not covered by their limited world view and group mentality is Racism/Bigotry/Prejudice in it's purest form.

From the events I have been to, I find most people are like me and could give a crap less what letter is by their name. It's about reducing federal control and spending, neither of which Scozzafava would have done anything about. The Rhinos that were in power during the Bush years surpassed every single administration in recent history, except Obama, in increasing federal spending and oversight of our lives. This is unacceptable to most of us, the Rhino hunt is on, get with it or get out of the way.

This goes along with the whole point of this article, the federal laws are so complex that we are all criminals and don't even know it Wed, 7 Oct 2009 13:39:13 +0000 http://biggovernment.com/publius/2009/10/06/the-orchid-police-criminalizing-everything-everyone/#IDComment37617889
