The Nazi feels our society is screwed if speed cameras are in place, but
not if prison without trial is possible?

Speeders kill innocent americans every day. Only a criminal coddler
like you wants them to avoid capture and punishment.

If that were the case, wouldn't there be some verbiage in there about
the 85th percentile method and requiring the limits to be reposted? In
any case, I may be overly cynical, but I suspect that the people
reviewing the photos of the various tickets already know the names of
all the council members.

Wha? When has the "wolf being helpful" been discredited? If
anything, the results from reintroducing wolves in Yellowstone confirmed
it in a big way, improving the health not only of my namesakes, but of
plants, birds and small mammals as well.

AFAIK the speed kills "theory" has been discredited only in the
same circles as the round Earth "theory".

You may be interested to know that the DC government is darn near 100%
Democrat (Except Carol Schwartz, IF she is still in office) AND 92% of the
population voted for Kerry. So, these are your friends doing this!

Within the last few years, but it could be one of those theories
that come and go in cycles like the lists of foods that are good
and bad for you.
