I didn't say I wasn't in control of what I post. However,  I don't 
complain about the 'noise' either. That's the difference Ed. You are 
contributing to the noise and then complaining about it. And in enabling
the 
noise you enable me to go on about the 'crap' you also complain about. 
If you don't like it, don't participate in it. You're in control of what 
you post ya know. 

The more you complain about it, the more I enjoy posting articles about 
stuff you claim can't happen.

You are choosing to 'hear it' right now. I choose not to 'hear' judy, you 
can do the same to me any time you want. 

As far as what you call 'crap', well I suppose maybe it's not im****tant 
where you live, but some of us live in locations where these 
adminstrative courts and property seizures have taken hold. But to you 
it's just paranoia that maybe the cops will end the restriction of using 
these sort of laws against the 'bad' groups of people they are supposed 
to and start using them against the public at large.... shouldn't worry 
about that all I suppose. Those laws are for those bad people.... Until 
there was tow sticker slapped on a perfectly functional and cosmetically 
good car in my driveway for the made up crime of not driving it.
