  Re: Gotta love Oracle...

There is no perfect scheme but I prefer some process (undefined? what our founding fathers did? something else?) to ratify some basic set of rights and then sticking to those rather than allowing 51% majorities to override them on whim. If (...) (23 years ago, 11-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Violence created by presence of guns? (was: Gotta love Oracle...)

  Re: Freedom vs. Wellfare
