Equal protection under the law is a relatively conservative view, isn't? Getting rid of all (but basic speed law) speed limits on interstates? Wanting rational behavior from the police is extreme? Wanting fair courts is extreme? Wanting laws that don't rewrite the laws of physics is extreme? Wanting safe roads is extreme? Wanting to see a police officer not show kneejerk reactions is extreme? > -- These opinions are my own and not necessarily those of Information Quest or Pebble In The Sky http://www.informationquest.com mailto:jgarry@nospameiq.com http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/joel_garry Remove nospam to reply. mailto:joel_garry@compuserve.nospam.com "See your DBA?"
