Yes, a 3 judge panel of the 9th circuit court in California
did say that, but apparently the ruling doesn't apply to the whole US, just the states the are in the 9th Circuit Court. Last year the 5th Circuit court ruled just the opposite and the US Sepreme Court refused to hear an appeal. You can read about both cases here. http://www.washtimes.com/national/20021217-843548.htm Funny how this thread got highjacked to a debate on guns, when it started out about some actor shooting his mouth off.

Before MagiK comes in here talking about the horrible liberal left and its namby-pambyism in the 9th Circuit, I will note that the 9th Circuit (includes CA and HI) is known for VERY progressive (and wacky) decisions. It gets overturned by the Supreme Court more than any other circuit - especially with a conservative Supreme Court whose Chief Justice's absolute biggest issue is limiting federal power.

Who really cares what actors say about one another?
They are just people like everyone else. If you heard average joe down the road saying such things would you really care? Probaly not. If actors do a good job entertaining then give them credit but leave their personal lives alone. Charelton Heston was a great actor but has said some very stupid things in the past as well, remarks that were even racist. I do believe anyone who says anything should be careful that it isn't being brodcasted by the media when they say it. Look at what happened to that Canadian who worked for the government. She had a negative opion about Bush, the media was in the right place at the right time and she was crucified. So actor or nobody you should be careful what you say when the media is around. Does it matter that it was Clooney who said it. [ 01-22-2003, 12:37 PM: Message edited by: pritchke ] |
