<DIV class=AOLPlainTextBody id=AOLMsgPart_0_98774fc4-b4cd-4c16-b909-ff730039f2ab><PRE><TT>Greetings Visionairea -
Concerning NSA and their bid for the status quo:
Lest we forget another argument so often used by Roy Atwood, Doug Wilson, et
al; "They [city council] didn't prevent us from moving in back then."
An analogy: Suppose I had been shoplifting regularly at the Palouse Mall.
I was able to do this unfettered primarily due to a close relationship that
I maintained with mall security. Suddenly the owner of the Palouse Mall
replaces mall security employees with a more efficient, reliable group. The
next day I am arrested while attempting to shoplift.
Question: Would it be right to have the arrest voided so that I can
continue shoplifting simply because nobody did anything earlier?
