  • Yeah, during those reviews they are going to get their liquor license renewed. Why? Because those businesses have not abused their liquor licenses and have followed all appropriate laws.

    The article sites a law that licenses cannot be issued to those convicted of ‘a crime involving moral turpitude’, but then does not follow up by demonstrating the license is being issued to Trump. It merely claims he would benefit from it being issued to the business. The law quoted does not state it can’t be issued to person x if some other person would benefit who has been convicted of such a rime.











  • rather than just being normal and evaluating the law on ‘does it seem normal or moral to ban this’

    This is the job of the legislature. To make law based on norms and morals, as well as a dozen other factors.

    almost like ConStITuTUiOnALiTy is a dumb fucking way validate the law

    The job of the judiciary is to rule based on what the various laws say, which obviously includes the Constitution.

    Do you really want the judiciary ignoring the law and legislating from the bench? Remember, your preferred group isn’t the one in the majority.





  • Hydrofoils have never taken off outside of tiny niches. Changing the propulsion from gas to electric does nothing for any of the advantages or disadvantages of hydrofoils other than making the disadvantage of ‘the boat must be as light as possible’ even worse.

    A ferry is also one of the worst applications for a hydrofoil possible. Underwater debris like grass is a much larger problem and they have a massively increased draft when traveling at slow speed. Both of these are most acute when when pulling into dock near a shoreline…to ferry things.
