I agree. It's worth remembering that the ADA does not apply in every situation and where it does apply all it requires is that business or government entity provide a means of access for the disabled to be able to use the facilities in much the same way as other persons rather than the specific...

Lawyers (at least the good ones) don't have staff lurking on message boards sites like this looking for clients because it's both inefficient and in at least a few states doing that can result in a lawyer facing disciplinary action under the rules of conduct for lawyers by contacting people to...

You are apparently missing the point. It is more control when Trump seeks to achieve those goals by usurping the power of the other branches of government or take actions that he lacks power to take under the Constitution and federal statutes. In short, how he achieves his goals is as important...

Apparently you've not been following what Musk has been doing very closely. He's been doing, and trying to do, a lot more than "just documenting what Biden spent money on." Trump and his White Staff have had to pull Musk and tell him that some what he was trying to do wasn't permitted. Musk...

You have your facts wrong. The Department of Education was indeed created by Congress in the The Department of Education Organization Act (Public Law 96-88). While JFK created the USAID it was later established as a separate agency by Foreign Affairs Reform and Restructuring Act of 1998 (Public...

You seem to be assuming that I didn't oppose the power grabs made by those presidents. That assumption is not accurate. I don't like the power grabs of Democrats any more than I do those of Republicans. The way Trump is starting out is a rather rocky road and if he wants to succeed in doing...

I think you meant to say that it was NOT political. I think Biden's pardon of Hunter was wrong, but not because it was a political move. I don't believe politics was at the center of that decision. I think the decision to spare his son the hardships of a conviction. While as a parent that's very...

Making the government more efficient is great. But doing it by attempting to do it by either going around Congress when Congress must approve it or creating or terminating agencies, another power given to Congress rather than the President, and attempting to take power granted to other branches...

I do keep up with the news.That Forbes poll hardly shows overwhelming support for the president. 53% is just over half of those polled, hardly a ringing endorsement of his approach. He's not manged to win over many of the people in the other half of America that didn't vote that he's taking us...

Some of what Trump — and especially his henchman Musk — have done very likely violates the Constitution. Unlike running their own corporations where they have the sole power to run them any way they want, the Constitution wisely divides government power among the branches of government to...

Cutting the tax from taxing 85% of SS income back to 50%, as it was for a long time, makes sense because only the taxpayer was never taxed on the 50% of the SS contributions that the employer is required to provide. But if the Republicans wan't to cut that tax they'll need to find spending cuts...

People are the cause of most of those ills, and they existed before big government ever existed and even before writing was invented to record the history of humankind. Government is simply a reflection of those who run it.

Article 18 of the Boulder County Land Use Code is the portion that defines terms used in the Code. It does not have a definition of "access". So where are you seeing the definition and how does it affect you? Having once lived in Boulder I'm familiar with how seriously both the city and the...

Actually Trump did not say exactly what he would do should he be elected. On most issues he was very vague about what he'd accomplished and even more vague on exactly how he'd do it. Make no mistake, his efforts here are not a noble effort to purge bad agents as Trump very much wants the public...

I agree. Some of Trump's goals I agree with. But I don't agree with the way he's going about it. It should not, as much as possible, come at the expense of hardworking middle and lower class citizens, whether in government or out. His scatter shot approach to some of these things are baffling to...

That argument would work if the driver first allowed her to sit in the car and see if the seat belt will fit. Then if the passenger can't get seatbelt around them the driver would be on much firmer ground saying "I'm sorry, but all people in my car must wear a seat belt for safety."

That is flawed logic. The law has long recognized that certain rights can be restricted over the age of adulthood and others to those under it based on their capacity to exercise the right responsibly. We all have seen 18 year-olds who can't drink responsibly, hence the reason nearly every...

This may be the first statement you've made about Trump that I agree with. There's a lot Trump's team is doing that voters had no clue were coming and some of those who voted for him might have voted differently if they had known. Trump is working hard to make America a better place for...

We can add this to the long list of technological advances that get unleashed on the world before the issues of whether and how the technology should be used are considered. As a species we still haven't learned much from our past problems with tech abuse/disasters.

What the author of that didn't mention, probably because he/she didn't bother to do the research before writing up the story, is that Michigan is the only state in the country that has a law prohibiting discrimination based on weight. Currently the law only expressly covers weight discrimination...
