o They should be punished exactly as any non-government employee would be.
o Because of their position of responsibility and power, they should be held to a higher standard and punished more severely than ordinary citizens. |

Her quasi-selection to "represent" the federal prefect of North Carolina tells us much about both the Republican Party and the Bush Administration and their true positions on freedom for Americans." --Jeff Elkins |

Fairfax County prosecutors dropped the trespassing charge because no one from the NRA showed up to testify at a hearing Wednesday. An NRA spokesman had said the group would not pursue charges.
"The fact that they weren't here proves they are not willing to face the victims of the policies they promote," Mauser said after the hearing that lasted less than a minute. |
