  • Dear Virginians, Five Generations Ago, My Ancestors Were Freed from the Shackles of Slavery
    REFORMING OUR CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM Dear Virginians, Five generations ago, my ancestors were freed from the shackles of slavery. Just two generations ago, my grandfather, one of Virginia’s first Black lawyers, was forced by Jim Crow to obtain his law degree in the north. And my father was one of the first to integrate his elementary school in 1960. As I travel throughout the Commonwealth and stand as an elected official in the former capital of the Confederacy, I often wonder how my ancestors would feel, and what they would think, about their descendant who has the opportunity to be Virginia’s first Black Attorney General. I’m running for Attorney General because we’ve made progress in building a more fair and equitable Virginia, but we all know we have not come far enough. The vestiges of slavery and Jim Crow live on in our Commonwealth’s criminal code, in our judicial system, and in our policing. They criminalize Black and Brown communities and make every Virginian less safe. In order to embrace the new Virginia decade, we must build a justice system that works for everybody in our Commonwealth, not just a select few. We have arrived at a true moment of opportunity in our country and in our Commonwealth. We must elect leaders who will rise to that moment and seize the chance to create real change in our justice system, rather than continuing with those who have proven time and time again that they will only do the bare minimum to get by. For his entire career, Mark Herring has shown that he will follow when he has to, but he will not lead.

  • Biddy Girls Basketball Tournament Westwego, Louisiana
    Biddy Girls Basketball Tournament Westwego, Louisiana EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The primary purpose of the study was to determine the economic significance of the Biddy Girls Basketball Tournament that was held on March 30-April 5, 2000 at The Alario Center in Westwego. The Year 2000 Biddy Basketball Tournament was comprised of 38 basketball teams, consisting of approximately 12 girls on each team. Approximately 17 teams were local; others were from Kansas, Dallas, Houston, or some as far as Puerto Rico and Finland. Surveys were conducted at The Alario Center to identify non–local visitors who were then asked to enumerate their expenditures during this event. In addition, coaches were also surveyed regarding team expenses. Hotels in the area provided information on the hotel room nights generated by the tournament. Results show a positive economic impact for Westwego and the surrounding communities generated by visitor spending on hotel rooms, admission tickets, concessions, meals, laundry, shopping, and entertainment. RESULTS Economic Significance l Total direct visitor expenditures was $279,920. l The average hotel room rate was $67.40. l The average amount paid per day for admission tickets was $15.00. l The average amount paid per day for concessions was $15.10. l The average amount paid for meals per day (outside of The Alario Center) was $39.94. l The average amount paid for local transportation was $14.10 per day. l The average amount paid for laundry each day was $.92. l The average per day spent on entertainment/recreation was $10.72. l The average per day spent on shopping was $41.08.

  • Looking Back to Go Forward: Remaking Detainee Policy*
    Looking Back to Go Forward: Remaking U.S. Detainee Policy* by James M. Durant, III, Lt Col USAF Deputy Head, Department of Law United States Air Force Academy Frank Anechiarico Distinguished Visiting Professor of Law United States Air Force Academy Maynard-Knox Professor of Government and Law Hamilton College [WEB VERSION] April, 2009 © James Durant, III, Frank Anechiarico * This article does not reflect the views of the Air Force, the United States Department of Defense, or the United States Government. “By mid-1966 the U.S. government had begun to fear for the welfare of American pilots and other prisoners held in Hanoi. Captured in the midst of an undeclared war, these men were labeled war criminals. .Anxious to make certain that they were covered by the Geneva Conventions and not tortured into making ‘confessions’ or brought to trial and executed, U.S. Ambassador-at-Large Averell Harriman asked [ New Yorker correspondent Robert] Shaplen to contact the North Vietnamese.” - Thomas Bass (2009) ++ Introduction This article, first explains why and how detainee policy as applied to those labeled enemy combatants, collapsed and failed by 2008. Second, we argue that the most direct and effective way for the Obama Administration to reassert the rule of law and protect national security in the treatment of detainees is to direct review and prosecution of detainee cases to U.S. Attorneys and adjudication of charges against them to the federal courts. The immediate relevance of this topic is raised by the decision of the Obama Administration to use the federal courts to try Ali Saleh Kahah al-Marri in a (civilian) criminal court.

Not to be rude, but the president seems to have more conflicts of interest than someone who has a lot of conflicts of interests. Yeah, our GREAT leader worrying about his daughters CLOTHING LINE being dropped, while people are dying from other issues not being addressed all over the country. Maybe she should go into politics so she can complain for herself since government officials can do that. How about at least doing your jobs, instead of not?!?!? Ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!
