Separately in his own opinion and labeled it dubious because he didnt think that the use of the word threat means you got to mean it to be a threat. It doesnt matter the criminal law very rarely has any liability of what a reasonable person think. Its got to be the guilty mind of the person doing it. So the court added that second question. I think the importance of this case is whether the case goes off on the statutory ground or the constitutional ground. This is just one federal statute and you can start again, you can try again later. Although the Roberts Court has somewhat of a practice of throwing water on the issues and giving everybody a chance of trying to trim their sales before they invalidate their statutes. It will be more important if it goes up on a constitutional ground because you have several statutes, not all of which include a subjective intent requirement. In addition, there are several different federal statutes. It is interesting thats goes up on the constitution
Sfond to that . Saysll the Tillis Campaign senator hagan is too closely aligned with president obama. They point to some policies, particularly the health care law. If you look at the upcoming debate between these two candidates courtesy of wraltv, what are you looking for .

Thank you, i yield back, thank you. Gentleman from georgia is recognizes. Thank you, mr. Chairman to the witnesses being here today, i appreciate you being here. I dont know when in my lifetime ive been more concerned about the internal security of america, not just from our safety and security, but our economic security. And on several fronts for different reasons. One of the things that i know has been spoken about here and at other times is the threat of isis. As not only being what i understand the most well funded the best organized terrorist organization in the history. But also there ability to effectively use the internet and social media. Theres one thing to use social media. Those of us engaged in politics, we spend a lot of time studying the effective use of social media. How do you come up and stand out amongst billions of users across the world . And it appears that isis is doing a very good job. Theyre effectively marketing to our youth which is especially concerning to m
Very clear in smiley and in hillenbrand that were defining legislature in this clause as meaning legislative process. With all due respect i disagree. This court heard the argument in the briefs in smiley, and one side was saying just that. One side was saying Legislature Just means the legislative process in the state, whatever that is. The other side said no, it means the representative body of the people. And this court said, well, actually we dont have to decide that dispute but we certainly agreed that it means the representative body of the people just as we said five years earlier in the hawk case. So what the court says is first the delegee is clearly the legislature. The representative body of the people. But that brings you then to the second question, which is what kind of authority is delegated to the state legislatures . And the authority thats granted under the elections clause is a lawmaking authority so, that means that the state legislature has tone gauge in lawmaking
