The burden of proof is on the government in a court of law.

Outside the court, the government can presume you're guilty and arrest you if you can't show you're innocent.

What kind of badge? If it's a CHL badge it makes no difference. If he's a LEO he can carry openly or concealed.

If someone is tired of hearing the same things over and over again, they should avoid television for the next nine months. Between the writers strike and the elections, it's worse than any discussion here.

It wasn't that long ago that some people weren't comfortable with Negros drinking from the same water fountains as Whites. There are still people who aren't comfortable with interracial marriage. That doesn't mean we should make laws based on intolerance and prejudice.

Do we really want doofi running around with a pistola on their hip?

Never mind pistols. Allowing doofi to vote is much more dangerous.

Does that mean we should enact "reasonable restrictions" such as literacy tests and poll taxes?
