Blogging stuff

Ace reports it could soon be illegal to blog on company time:

Unbelievable. The campaign finance reformers want to make it illegal to blog more than one hour a week, four hours a month from a corporation’s place of business.

More than that and you could be subject to a legal complaint — the complaint being the coporation (sic), through you, is making illegal in-kind donations to a political party, because, I guess, the coproration (sic) is faciliating (sic) your expression of your opinions by providing you with a job and a computer.

Additionally, John Cole and others are declaring their blogs to be web magazines to bypass other regulations coming against blogs. Screw that, I’m a blogger and I will not be silenced.

TN Supreme Court Strikes Down Old Porn Law

But never fear, we have a new one. WATE:

Knoxville’s ordinance to control so-called adult businesses has been struck down as unconstitutionally vague by the Tennessee Supreme Court.

That’s after a seven-year legal battle.

The city already has replaced the ordinance with a more tightly constructed law.

WBIR says exactly the same thing. Literally. This may explain why the Knoxville Titty Council recently changed the law. They knew they would lose.

Good

House votes to allow loaded weapons inside DC homes:

D.C. residents who may legally own firearms under the city’s current gun-control laws would be allowed to store them assembled and loaded in their homes under legislation passed today by the House of Representatives.

Passed by a vote of 259-161, the amendment to the fiscal 2006 D.C. appropriations bill is a considerably scaled-back version of an original proposal by Indiana Congressman Mark Souder that would have repealed gun ownership restrictions in the nation’s capital.

ART Day

Publicola:

Let’s make June 23rd American Range Trip day. Bringing some ART into the world would be appropriate, especially on a date which 5 people so artfully dodged the plain text of their controlling document. There’s a catch though – since 2006 would be the 215th anniversary of the Bill of Rights (if they’d have survived that is) let’s say you must expend at least 215 rounds downrange. In 2007 it’d be 216 rounds & so on with each new year. Any firearm chambered for any cartridge is cool, but I’d be much happier if you had at least one .30 rifle (bolt or gas operated) on the line.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
