Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

It shouldn't change anything, because we SHOULD have the same rights with the RMA as we would with the City of Richmond. The Flying Squirrels (and apparently the AG's opinion) seem to think that you can lease away the rights of the citizenry.

This is yet another example of why we insist there be teeth in laws....something like.."Any entity who violates this section after being informed of said violation shall be fined $500.00 a day for every day of noncompliance".

The word shall takes any wiggle room from an anti Judge.

I'd like to see more of 18 U.S. Code § 241 - Conspiracy against rights used:
If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same; or
If two or more persons go in disguise on the highway, or on the premises of another, with intent to prevent or hinder his free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege so secured—
They shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, they shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death.
