Pro-Life Activists Who Used Standard Media Technique of Undercover Sting Video to Expose Planned Parenthood Fetal Tissue Trade Indicted on 15 Counts
As Randy Barnett remarked (approximately), they told me if Trump were elected the machinery of the government would be turned against journalists, and they were right!
Sean Davis notes that such sting videos are routinely made in California, particularly by animal rights groups who surreptitiously record slaughterhouse workers, who are never prosecuted. Indeed, their sting videos spur the state to investigate crimes the targets of their sting videos might have committed. David French's link (the first one) notes that California caselaw has limited the law against unconsented recording of a conversation to situations in which the target could have a reasonable expectation of privacy, and has specifically ruled it did not apply in situations like the one we find here (strangers meeting in a public place with no expectation the other party will keep their conversations private, discussing business in a manner they'd discuss business with with any other potential business partner). But if you're pro-life? Well then. Now the state is coming after you with everything it has. This cannot go on much longer. When you are this blatant about telling people that they will not have the protections of the law, that some favored groups are permitted to break what is supposedly "the law" while "the law" will be used vindictively against the state's enemies, then there is no "law" at all, and people will very soon stop acting as if there is. When the state declares large swathes of people to be Enemies of the State, they also simultaneously make the state the Enemy of the People. What cannot go on, will not. Corrected: It wasn't Ilya Somin who'd used Instapundit's "and they were right" line, but Randy Barnett.Comments

A cop shooting you because you try to grab his gun after you already punched him in the face is rather different then the state going after someone taking undercover video of a business deal.
Can you imagine the uproar of a BLM activist met with a cop undercover to discuss how they oppress minorities, got him on tape to admitting to *everything* BLM believes about cops and the cops then arrested him?

But, ace. The key thing about all the degradation in the US - ever bit of it, in every sphere - is that it *can* go on.
Because when you have the most free, vibrant, productive, adaptable, law-abiding, secure, consequently prosperous country in history, you can nibble away or whack away at chunks of these foundations for a loooong time before it reaches a breaking point.
And - crucially - when one of the key foundations has been largely removed - the American mindset, sense of fairness, recognition that rule of law must prevail - then there is a verrrry long run time on the looting/degradation phase.
Also helps to break the political system such that there is not much representation in representative govt. Other than micro-targeting and micro-servicing of select players (donors, etc.).
This is very well advanced. These comment sections abound in the evidence that the above processes are happening, and show no sign of being stopped.

So, go right ahead, left-o-fascists, keep at it. By the time you're done, everyone in the entire world will know about Planned Parenthood's illegal sale of aborted body-parts.
Historical parallel:
When the very early Catholic Church tried to "unify" Christianity by banning many of the wide variety of Christian sects and offshoots, Origen wrote a tome called Contra Celsum in which he tried to discredit the more unusual Christian sects (and pagan religions). In so doing, he described them in detail.
Well, as time went on, the Church's attempts to suppress the variants and sects and other religions was successful, and most of them disappeared from the Earth.
Except, Origen unwittingly had preserved their ideologies forever in Contra Celsum. Now, most of what we know about these long-vanished sects is from this one book -- which was intended to extirpate them.
If Origen had never written his book, the sects would have indeed been successfully erased from history.
In the same way, if the left just gave The Silent Treatment to the PP sting videos, they would have more quickly been forgotten. Now, with this suit, they will go down in history forever.
The Law of Unintended Consequences strikes again.

You wanna see Schumer cry for the filibuster back -- pass a new Judiciary Bill out of the House. Reorganizing the entire Federal court system away from regional circuits to specialties (bankruptcy, IP, real property, commercial contracts, government crap, national security, etc.). Then make EVERY federal judge below SCOTUS go thru re-appointment and confirmation for the new seats. Along the way, ditch that crap about Senators getting to approve the list for their State.
Then fragment the appropriation bill for the court system to each and every judge's seat. Too hard to impeach, but if they flaunt the will of Congress - just defund their ass.

Read "Flyboys." Great book. The Japanese during WWII had totally lost their minds.

this old scumbag who was explaining how they killed all these people,
and he was saying it with no remorse. I was thinking why the fuck is
this dude still breathing? He's talking about killing kids like it was
along the lines of spraying a bees nest. I was hoping somebody that saw
him on the show would track him down and end him.

There's a good book called Ordinary Men, by Christopher Browning, that discusses the German Order Police- a bunch of middle aged men recruited to police conquered towns in the General Government, and the Wartheland, as well as filling a security role in areas conquered in the East when the Molotov-Ribbentrop agreement fell through. Your basic, good guy men who became sadistic bastards when given a little power.

Are you kidding? Was that from the tax reform by Phil Gramm? I remember my dad being pisses as all get out when the new changes came through because they took away a lot of deductions. Charities took real hits during that time, so it was revised a bit, but still, the middle class was really hit hard by those "reforms."

Inside and outside on the front axles & labor.

They had to pull the axles to do it. I'm curious what condition the axles were to start with, and how much more it would have been to change the axles seeing if one goes bad they'll be doing all that shit again.

What happened was that a good conservative ex-judge named Mike Anderson was elected to be D.A. in 2012. His wife was also an ex-judge. He died of cancer in 2013, and it was up to Perry to appoint his successor til the next election.. There was a groundswell of feeling that his wife would rule like him and be a natural successor, so Perry appointed her to take her dead husbands spot.
Sadly, once her husband's influence was gone and she had THE POWER!!!, Devon Anderson decided to turn into a typical female SJW idiot. Not only did she support bringing charges against Veritas, she also found disrepute by jailing anyone who didn't please her, including a rape victim. She was bounced out of office by the voters in 2016, and it's safe to say her career is over.
Yet another would-be ruler promoted up to her level of incompetence.

A parallel to Obamacare would be if the government decided everyone should take a vacation every year and then mandated that everyone has to pay for a week at a 4 or 5 star hotel. They will subsidize people below a certain income threshold but "NO, young people cannot opt to just buy a tent and spend a week trekking the Appalachian trail" and "NO, you cannot decide you'd prefer to just stay in a Best Western because you want to have more disposable income to spend on movie nights or bowling leagues instead" Plus the hotels cannot have a surcharge or refuse people who have fleas who are going to cost them a bunch of money because that would be *unfair*

Brings back the lesson, often told and more often forgotten of how unusual it is, if not without precedent, to be born in a society based on individual liberty and rule of law.
The world-historical default is various forms of tyranny, mob rule and the corruption inherent in both of them.
The ones tearing down our precious experiment forget that if they succeed, its very unlikely something anything close to what we have can be rebuilt in our lifetimes.

Moki, this is what my now-retired surgeon uncle told me about 20 years ago. He regularly performed surgery pro-bono, usually when asked to by the local Health Dept.
He cited as an example a gunshot victim who came into the emergency room. He said his allowable deduction, after the surgery and follow-up office visits, would often be $100 or less.

Cops will obey their commanding officers, all the way to the top. At the top they're all political animals unless they are elected, and even then their actions will reflect political considerations as much as law.
So a blanket statement about LEO can't be made, other than they'll do what they're told.

We as Conservatives need to realize that the left is getting themselves worked up to start playing for keeps and the sooner we punch them in the nose the less bloody things will be in the long run.
Trump could do his part by publicly ordering the DOJ to go after Planned Parenthood and the Prosecutor in California who pulled this stunt.
