Hutaree Wedding

I wonder if this is what she imagined her wedding would be like?

So this doesn’t really have anything to do with the law, but Jesus, what a bunch of goobers:

Michigan Militia Group Preparing for Antichrist

Don’t get me wrong: the last thing anyone wants, I think, is a bunch of Jesus-freaks playing dress-up games with live ammo.  But it’s also sad, in a funny way.  I mean, how did these people think they were going to tip the balance between Good and Evil, exactly?  Was it that extra hand grenade they were going to buy, once Angie’s unemployment check came in?

A federal court last week said a teenage girl couldn’t be prosecuted on child pornography charges, after naked pictures of her turned up on the cell phones of her classmates.

According to the ABA Journal, the appellate court said there was “no evidence the girl had been involved in the distribution of the photo.”

“As a result, the district attorney’s threat to prosecute unless she attended a class and wrote an essay” was “compelled speech,” and a violation of her rights.

It’s an interesting case, but I wonder how the essay was “compelled,” if the DA didn’t actually have a case?

Whether “sexting” – sending naked pictures of yourself by cell phone – is a free speech right was a question the court didn’t reach, the Journal says.  Personally, I think it depends on what you look like.
