Yeah please PD lets not be hypocritical.
The Branch Davidians broke the law, at least some of them did, and deserved to be arrested and prosecuted to the fullest extent.
The parents WERE responsible for their children, but it still should not have happend that way.... no need to go in like that, unless they were harming the children or something.
I am law and order, and think it should be applied fairly across the board. I am also big into civil liberties.... I know you find that hard to beleive but I am always going to tend to side against the gov't when it comes to dealing with Citizens....
I do not think Ashcroft would have done the same thing - So far to me Ashcroft has been enforcing the laws on the books, even those he does not personally agree with - that is what PROFESSIONAL law enforcement is about.
I think Ashcroft gets a bad rap, and is a convienent whipping boy for the left.... I have not seen one concrete thing he has done that I have issues with. Being Conservative means he IS law and order, and does what the laws say.... unlike liberals who like to twist and interpret the law.
The reality is, Ashcroft would not like me because I am a pornographer... I understand that, but I do not think he would drum up charges just to put me in jail.
I really think the genie is out of the bottle as far as porn, at least main stream fucking. Some ofthe extrme stuff with violence , beasty, kiddie, and other things are going to raise the flags and a lot of that has to be looked into.
But main stream plain old fucking between consentual adults is over with.... and Ashcroft and Bush or anyone else cannot do anything about it. I think Ashcroft and Bush are both realist, they know they cannot put the genie back in the bottle.... so they are not going to fight a battle they cannot win....
