    TOMMY BURKS OBT. b. 22 May 1940 – d. 19 October 1998, TN Tommy Burks, politician. Burks served as a Member of the Tennessee State House of Representatives from 1970 to 1978, and as a Member of the Tennessee State Senart from 1978 until his death in 1998. Burks was shot and killed in his pickup truck near Monterey, TN, on October 19, 1998. Burk’s political opponent, Byron Looper, allegedly shot and killed him for his seat in the state senate. Looper was arrested and charged with Burk’s murder and in August 2000, he was tried for murder and convicted, and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Tommy Burks (May 22, 1940 – October 19, 1998) was a farmer and Democratic party politician in Tennessee, United States. He served in the Tennessee House of Representatives from 1970 until 1978, and in the Tennessee State Senate from 1978 until his murder in 1998. Born in Cookeville, Tennessee, Burks was one of the most conservative Democrats in the state legislature. He opposed the teaching of evolution in school science classes (twice introducing legislation to restrict its teaching), legal abortion, gambling, and a state lottery. However, his views seemed to have been very popular and in line with a large number of voters within his rural district. Burks was an energetic legislator who almost never missed a floor or committee session. It is reported that he would on some occasions arrive at a session having already gotten up on his farm, delivered a load of hogs to Knoxville (approximately 90 miles east of his home) and then driven to the State Capitol in Nashville (100 miles west of his home and 190 miles west of Knoxville).

  • Deadly Drones? Why FAA Regulations Miss the Mark on Drone Safety
    Deadly Drones? Why FAA Regulations Miss the Mark on Drone Safety Steve Calandrillo,* Jason Oh,† and Ari Webb‡ 23 STAN. TECH. L. REV. 182 (2020) ABSTRACT A rapidly growing commercial drone industry has prompted the introduction of nu- merous regulations governing American airspace. Congress has tasked the Federal Avia- tion Administration (FAA) with “developing plans for the use of the navigable airspace to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient use” of American skies. While well-intended, the FAA has departed from Congressional will by imposing an excessive regulatory re- gime that threatens to stifle drone technology and innovation. In fact, many FAA regula- tions fail to address the very problem they seek to fix, namely the safety of our airspace. The unfortunate result is that myriad scientific and pragmatic applications of cutting- edge drone technology have been stalled or thwarted entirely inside the United States, forcing innovation efforts to move abroad. FAA regulations must be dramatically scaled back and reformed to reflect the count- less benefits and comparatively minimal risks associated with drone technology. The cur- rent rules cover innocuous use cases, are too restrictive even when addressing cases where regulation makes sense, and fail to permit efficient technical approaches to reaching reg- ulatory objectives. The nonsensical rule requiring any person over the age of thirteen to * Jeffrey & Susan Brotman Professor of Law, University of Washington School of Law, [email protected].
