bush stomping on my 1st amendmant rights
« on: September 14, 2007, 01:44:19 PM »
thats right!  

  Old George, through his lackies in the FBI, is telling me I have to dress in accordance with regulations designed to make it more difficult to rob a bank by removing my 1st amendmant right to dress however I want to.   For instance.....not wearing a hat and sunglasses makes it more difficult to rob a bank so I am supposed to take my hat off when I enter a bank.  

  This is an assault on my core rights as protected in the 1st amendmant.  Everyone knows if you outlaw hats and sunglasses in banks, only outlaws in banks will wear hats and sunglasses

:confused:

I'll give up my hat and sunglasses when they pry them off my cold dead head.

So, You are saying that when one agent of the FBI says something, he is speaking directly for the President… It is time replace the tinfoil hat! It has absorbed all of the control rays that it can.

hehe, banks already have the ability to require confirmation of identities, they want the Feds to make it a law so the Banks don't make their customers mad.

Now, I'm just the opposite.  I'd be Happy that the people that got so mad about the request left and went to my competitors shop.  Leave them with the offended masses and I get the customers that want better security :)

i never wear a hat except if it gets real cold in the winter but that's just to keep my ears warm, also i never rob banks so it's a moot point for me.

how is a hat and sunglasses having anything to do with the right to speak out against the government?

Does the FBI actually expect criminals to follow the law?

Well if all the good law-abiding people are not wearing hats and sunglasses, obviously anybody wearing a hat and sunglasses in a bank is there to rob it.

I wear a 1/2 helmet while riding my Fatboy, Ca. law requires a DOT approved helmet.

I'm going to the bank, Washington Mutual, later today.

I always wear my helmet inside but I do take off my sunglasses. We'll see what happens.

It's strange though...

State law requires me to wear a helmet but the feds seem to have decided that there are places I can't.

The juxtaposition of this situation piques the Libertarian feelings hiden deep within me.

It's ok though, just as long as they stay out of my bedroom....

oops, too late :huh

You'd think it'd be kind of late to worry about that by then and there would be already some other clues to the robbers intentions. How about making it illegal to shout "THIS IS A ROBBERY!" upon entering a bank? Oh yeah.. that one was already illegal. The system seems  to work already as it is.
