TreeStandBowHunter Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 Let's have some fun here. If you could change, create or modify ANY 10 laws, what would they be. They don't have to be any certain catagory just 10 laws that you could change,create or modify. I'll tell you mine later tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texan_Til_I_Die Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 Re: YOU MAKE UP THE LAWS Don't have time for 10, but here's a couple that I would really like to see. 1. Create a national right to carry that will preempt all state and local firearm laws. 2. Eliminate the Federal Personal Income tax and replace it with a national sales tax. 3. Change the tort system to a "loser pays". 4. Institute a recall and referendum system for national candidates and laws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fisherguy Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Re: YOU MAKE UP THE LAWS 1. Government officials found to have misused tax dollars will be charged with fraud and tried by a jury of citizens. Penalties will vary depending on severity. Example, claiming $5000 dollars in expenses that wer not legitimate will get say a $15 000 dollar fine, and probation. Misusing $100 million by giving your friends BS contracts(sound familiar buckee?) will get you fired, fined as much as you have, and a significant prison term. While in prison you will write a letter to each and every taxpayer apopogizing for your actions.(At least 50 per day as long as your are in jail since even in Canada that would still be a lot of letters). 2. You no speaky English? Then get the heck out!( i guess in fairness i should allow french...but only if you move to an area where there are actually enough french people to warrant translating stuff!

markyj987 Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Re: YOU MAKE UP THE LAWS Outlaw abortion Death penalty in all states, expanded to rapists/child molesters...change in death penalty to make it public AND unpleasant (a real deterrent) English as official language social welfare programs revamped--so those who are able-bodied can no longer rip off taxpayers. Get rid of tax code, implement the "fair tax" idea. Set in motion a plan to wean people off of social security. I could keep going on and on...but here's a start.

popgun Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Re: YOU MAKE UP THE LAWS 10 Laws I would make (in no particular order of importance) 1. I would reinstate the draft system, for all men at age 18, without any deferments for those who simply want to get out of military service. 2. No women would be on-board Navy Ships or in any combat positions. (Strictly clerical and nursing in non-combat areas) 3. Enact a flat tax deducted from the worker’s income. (No exemptions and no forms to file) 4. No more hand-outs to those who can, but won’t work, and no hand-outs, or loans, to Anti-American foreign countries. 5. I would re-instate the legal age for voting, back to 21 years of age. 6. I would completely do away with a minimum wage system. 7. I would make homosexual acts illegal, and punishable by death. 8. I would have a law that would punish by the death penalty, any evangelist preacher who attempts to part anyone with their money, property, dignity, or by Biblical threats. (except for unsolicited donations) 9. I would make a law that no lawyer could advertise their services. 10. Any organization such as the ACLU, HSUS, PETA, or ALF would be unrecognized by the government as an entity, and would have to pay taxes on every penny they brought in through donations. (Remember, donations are no longer tax exempt.) Gosh…only 10? I’ve got a bunch more, but this will do for conversation starters. Disclaimer: Note: The above mentioned laws are for conversation only, and do not necessarily reflect the attitude, morals, or opinion of this writer, but sure to cause controversy.

johnf Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Re: YOU MAKE UP THE LAWS 1. I would legalize, comercialize, and tax the living snot out of Marijuana. Not because I would smoke it (I would not) But I feel like 98% of the people who would smoke it already are, and the revinue it would creat would be asrtinomical. 2. I would make it manditory for every person who publically gripes about teachers and the education system to substitute teach for 1 month. 3. Over turn Roe-v-Wade. Sorry libs. 4. Overturn every law in California that less than half of the other 50 states don't have. esp. gun laws 5. Costitutional amendment to outlaw any same-sex unions. 6. Make all able bodied welfare recipiants work. 7. Put cost caps on medical proceedures and medicines. 8. 150 mph speed limits on interstates 9. Death penalties for pediphiles. 10.

TreeStandBowHunter Posted March 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Re: YOU MAKE UP THE LAWS Aw no Popgun, they havn't heard mine yet ...but here goes: 1) If you came here from a Country that supports terrorists or from a country that has alot of terrorists, you must leave now. BYE...don't go away mad, just go away 2) If you are here in America from another country, you will adapt to our way of life. We will not build you churches or mosques or anything else to make YOU happy, we will not change anything for you PEROID 3) If you murder someone (Unless self self-defense) you will die the same way. You will have your little trial and when you are found guilty, you die the next day. BYE TO YOU TOO 4)If you rape or child molest or anything like that, you will DIE...PEROID 5) If you are gay, you are not normal. You were not born gay so don't play that with me.

If you don't qualify for a job it is because you are stupid, deal with it. No more taking companies or businesses to court for probable racism. No more setting certain "Numbers" for businesses or whatever else just to make people happy.

No TV no playtime in the courtyard, bread and water....that's it. You did the crime, you do the time, the hard way. Like Popgun, I could go one but I only asked for 10.

Alternate sources of energy will become priority.With natural methane by eating beans to be researched #1 Betcha we could provide plenty of energy that way. #6.

Especially about the "Don't ask Don't tell" part of it. I mean if anyone hates gays it is me but why would someone who hasn't served worry about if gays are amoungst the ranks in the military. Nevermind. Maybe this MORON who is just an ignorant SOB anyway, came off the wrong way to you. BTW, I think the embedded media is good to a degree. But I think they need to be given guns and ammo and what happens in the field, stays in the field. They do not have to air anything that they tape. I think they are good in part where they let people see what it is like over there but when something happens, I think they shouldn't be allowed to hold anything against the troops nor be allowed to air anything that might be questionable. I to think alot of things that go on in this world are unnecessary. But we won't go into that now. I think alot of American people are too often un-educated about what goes on in the military. I think alot of them go off what they hear from their friends or relatives or what everybody else been saying. In ending, no I really don't like the fact that peporters are embedded with us over there but at the same time, I think it is good in some ways. We just need to hold them accountable and I think if they are going to be with us, they need to fight too and only air what is OK'ed by the Commander.
