Mr. Cromm,

Many here feel very frustrated by the evil that the ruling class in the federal district do to the capitol of our Republic.

It is ironic that on a civil rights website like OCDO, when you advocate doing some of what you have a god given right to do (1st, 2nd A) you are chastized and ridiculed. However you are a rule breaker! (50 lashes with a wet noodle for you!)

Do not put all of your hope in the Federal Court System. That system is corrupt and has denied us our basic human rights for generations.

Those that worship at the altar of our Federal Court System always have an excuse for the horrible decisions that these courts put upon us. Their hope is a false hope. Reality eventually sets in for all of us. You know that you have arrived at that place when you admit that the reason you own guns is to protect yourself, your family and your neighbors from your government. (Reminder the Federal Courts are part of the government.)

Some day the tyranny will be too much. When that day arrives, I am sure you will know what to do.

Live Free or Die,
Thundar




See the difference between my post and yours? You advocate an absolute breaking of terrible laws. I write in a more cryptic way that does not exactly advocate violating any law.

(15) WE ADVOCATE FOR THE 'LAW-ABIDING' ONLY: Posts advocating illegal acts of any kind are NOT welcome here. Even if you feel that a law is unconstitutional we do not break it, we repeal it or defeat it in the courts.

Wow!. I am certainly glad this isn't how the men that founded our great nation thought! If it was, we would still be loyal servants to the crown, and would have been disarmed. We would not be debating on this website, because open carry would be unknown.

Very correct.

But, as has been stated many times in OCDO, that isn't how the site owner/s desire to have OC portrayed on THIS website.

The rule is well known and should not be cause for misunderstanding. Indeed the focus, intent and principals are well defined and summarized within these very rules.

It is not within the scope of OCDO to right all of the perceived ills of our interaction with our government. Going there detracts/distracts from the singular purpose of this forum.

We stray too far afield occasionally - this being one of those times.

"Re-read" the rules?!
Didn't read 'em to begin with! (But I did of recent...)

OCDO ~ I think my friend was diagnosed with this once.
You know, Obsessive Compulsive Dictatorial Oppressionism.
(OK, people, it's humor... rules are good... {most of the time, anyway!})
[no, really, you can courtesy chuckle any time now...]

Wish granted. :lol:

That is, if you can stand to be out in the sunlight after living your entire "adult" life in your parent's basement, making absurd statements and armchair ninja pronouncements on forums, in between online matches of HALO...

that's frickin HILARIOUS lol

March and still nothing but crickets.

What a pity. Even the intervention of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court is not enough to bring this trial to a swift and just conclusion.

DC Broke the COurt Rules AGAIN!

On May 24th 2012 the District filed a Supplimental Brief without authority. It is another instance of DC believing that they are above court rules. I do not think Judge Scullin will have any of it.

Alan Gura in his motion to strike again spanks the DC Attorneys for breaking the rules (not the first time for this case), then makes his final statement in the motion to strike:


"The case was argued on cross-dispositive motions almost two and a half years ago. It should be decided."

Bravo Mr. Gura!

One Year Under Judge Scullin

It was one year ago today that the order of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court took this case out of the hands of Judge Kennedy and placed it in the hands of Judge Scullin.

To date we have only crickets from Judge Scullin. He has not even ruled on Gura's objection to DC's blatent rule breaking.

Next month it will be 3 years without a ruling.

Is the 3 year anniversary the right time to have an empty holster protest at the DC District Court House?

Judge Scullin issued an order yesterday setting a hearing on outstanding motions for August 27, 2012. How long he takes to decide the case after the hearing is anyone's guess, but at least we have some movement. If you will be in the DC area on August 27, it should be an entertaining session, especially if 7th circuit decides its carry case in the meantime.

Glad to hear that there MAY be some movement on this case....

I was wondering this, if needed, is there a Writ of Mandamus type proceeding to force movement on this on this theme that Justice Delayed is Justice Denied!

It has been more than three years. This is a civil rights case. The shame and disgrace this puts upon the DC Federal District Court cannot be underestimated.

Shame on the black robed henchmen. Their outrageous and unjustifiable delays serve tyranny, not justice.
