Rights shouldn't be decided by people. Rights are guaranteed by the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Look at DC & Chicago -- the people ban guns in their cities by vote, but judges determined the constitution allows the right to bear arms. That's judges jobs, dude. They determine constitutionality of laws.

IIRC it's because Prop 8 proponents were able to place the ballot initiative based on a collection of signatures. You can get any initiative on a ballot if you get enough signatures on the petition, but it doesn't mean that the final measure (if enacted) will pass Constitutional muster.

Blowhard is, as usual, a dumbass.
Judges are allowed to have opinions and emotions and and still rule on a case. Usually "conflict of interest" is only an issue when there is a direct or indirect financial relationship. Perception of conflict is often enough for a judge to recuse themselves, but it's not required and it's at the judge's discretion or appellant's request.

Buffalo Back Jared
08-05-2010, 07:39 AM

Nope -- the key is to make sure that whatever law you put to a ballot initiative will stand up to a Constitutional test. It's not that difficult to figure out. You can come up with any wacky idea to tap into populist rage, but if it's unconstitutional, it won't fly.

My bigger issue with this process in general is the politicization of the Supreme Court -- which is the end-all/ be-all of decision making, of course. I hate the fact that conservative/Republican presidents (and the confirming Congress) feel the need to place ideologically conservative judges on the court, and liberals/Democrats do the same only with liberal judges.

I'm basically a socialist, but I want 9 politically neutral judges on the court so they can look at cases objectively.

Easier, sure, but if you're trying to rile up political furor, you want this stuff to be as big as possible. Think of how many politicians have their careers made by topics like this. If I was a pro-prop 8 (anti-gay) politician I could go to my constituents and claim the world will end if we allow gays to marry, but I'll fight the issue tooth and nail. I then sit back and let the campaign donations roll in.

As cynical as it sounds, I guarantee that 99% of these types of things are strictly for ginning up campaign donations...

For me, it would be fine if the US law code eliminated the word entirely, and all the tax laws, visitation laws, etc. etc. had the word civil partner in it, or some other similar term. So, in the eyes of the law there is no difference what sex you are, if you have a partner, you have a partner, who gives a fuck who that partner is.

Now, if you also want to have a church marriage ceremony, sure, go ahead, find a church that wants to do it, and the world is your oyster.

I definately dont understand how gay guys can also be very religious, and I know some, but I was thinking more of radical people. The Westboro Baptist Church is a really small group of people who get a lot of attention that completely defys logic- gays and radical protest go hand in hand and if a handful of those guys protesting churches would be a very visual thing. Also, you have that new movement in christianity with the tattood rock band preachers. I wonder if one of them would choose to take a pro gay stance and become a very public voice for people that use different interpretations for the prohibitive passages of the bible.

oh no, really??? I was looking at maybe going there if I go to the World Juniors in Buffalo this winter... I'd be so disappointed if it sucks.

I hit the Nascar HOF the week it opened before the May Charlotte race, and I was thoroughly disappointed with that place.

Because a sports team is a mandatory handicap in sports. The group effort of 11 people will never be as efficient as the effort of an individual athlete. That's why team sports are more interesting - there is more at work than the physical and mental performance of individual people, there is the group work that limits their abilities, but creates a compelling drama on the field.

Now, in school, teamwork would be counterproductive, because the goal of a school is to get the maximum out of each individual student, not to create a cohesive working group, that's done later, when the students start actual work.

Yeah, in boot camp they first taught you how to be good at things individually. (you're weren't assembling your M-16 with you bunk buddy, were you?)

And then you were taught how to act in a group. Combat patrols, operational command, group think etc. etc.

Now, wouldn't you say that a platoon isn't uniformly "great". There are some good soldiers, some average, some bad, and as such, they will never perform to the ability of the best soldiers, they will rather be an amalgamation of the skills of all those people. It's a good system, because it eliminates, as best it can, the inefficiencies of the sub-par soldiers, but the average army platoon is not a commando force, it's pretty much average.

I agree. Which is pretty much what I said. Boot camp does two things.

Thing 1 - teach you individual skills - shooting, running, jumping, throwing, diving, etc. etc.
Thing 2 - use those skills in a team, build group think, raise morale, create a cohesive unit, instill the values of the Corps.

Now, thing 1 is only limited by the ability of any individual soldier. How good his aim is, how physically fit he is, how well he can concentrate etc.

Thing 2 can never be done to the level of its top potential, which would be 100% efficiency of performance. It can be done to a higher or lower level, depending on the unit's expectation and composition. An Army infantry squad has an average level of X, a Marine Corps squad has a level of X+Y, a SEAL team has a level of X+Y+Z. But that level can never reach 100%, because there is inherent inefficiency in interpersonal communication, cohesion, performance.



Here's a clearer explanation, without tying it into the military.

Let's say you tell a person to unscrew 10,000 light bulbs. The time it takes for him to do the job is only limited by his ability. If he can unscrew 10 light bulbs in a minute, it will take him 1,000 minutes.

Now, assign the same task to 100 people. You already know that 1 person was able to do it in 1000 minute, so 100 people would be able to do it in 10 minutes, right? No. Even if they can all average 10 a minute there will still be inefficiencies, miscommunication, other problems. The limit in a group is not just the ability of each person, it's also the problems arising from working in a group. Sometimes 2 people will go for the same light bulb, sometimes they bump into each other, sometimes they miss a light bulb because they assume someone else will do it.
