Boards Archive] |
Welcome to the Vault Network
forum archive.
This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive.

Obama just signed (Mar 8th) the Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011
Direct link to the legislation
SEC. 2. RESTRICTED BUILDINGS OR GROUNDS.
Section 1752 of title 18, United States Code, is
amended to read as follows:
‘‘§ 1752. Restricted buildings or grounds
‘‘(a) Whoever—
‘‘(1) knowingly enters or remains in any restricted
building or grounds without lawful authority
to do so;
‘‘(2) knowingly, and with intent to impede or
disrupt the orderly conduct of Government business
or official functions, engages in disorderly or
disruptive conduct in, or within such proximity to, any
restricted building or grounds when, or so that, such
conduct, in fact, impedes or disrupts the orderly
conduct of Government business or official functions;
‘‘(3) knowingly, and with the intent to impede
or disrupt the orderly conduct of Government business
or official functions, obstructs or impedes ingress
or egress to or from any restricted building or
grounds; or
‘‘(4) knowingly engages in any act of physical
violence against any person or property in any restricted
building or grounds;
or attempts or conspires to do so, shall be punished as
provided in subsection (b).

Obama is probably too clueless to know that he is signing off on anti-constitutional totalitarian legislation.
Probably.

Most states have a law that adds penalties for using a deadly weapon in the process of a crime.
The first amendment doesn't protect criminals from being prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

The bill was sponsored by a Republican and passed overwhelmingly in both houses. If you think it is a bad bill, discuss that. Otherwise, folks will just assume it is another post by an Obama hater and ignore it.

While I think it's a shitty law, and I'm not happy that Obama signed it....it is a law with very small scope and, unlike your post title suggests, will have very little impact on OWS.
It only applies when the President, Vice President, Speaker of the house, or President of the Senate is in a building ...so it wont affect any of the OWS encampments unless one of those people happens to be visiting a building right beside where they are camping AND they decide to block the entrances (something they haven't done ever)
Where it gets troublesome is the G8 or G20 conferences, and that's what it is aimed at from the looks of it. Bad bill, bad law, but not a problem for the vast majority of protests and certainly not a problem for OWS.
