[They never caught him, and he’s most likely dead of old age by now......................]

Arthur Leigh Allen was the top suspect. He died in 1992 just before authorities were ready to arrest him.

I can’t account for my whereabouts in the 60s either. I was drunk that decade.

If you can remember the 60s you weren’t there.

You might want to have a look at my 2007 book "The Unabomber and the Zodiac." Whether the Unabomber did the Zodiac crimes or not is an open question, but Ted Kaczynski, in his seventies, is alive and kicking in the federal Supermax penitentiary, with no signs of giving up the ghost any time soon.

The guy was too clever to leave his name in any encrypted message, but the tenor of the deciphered text shows that he expected it would be deciphered quickly, since it all relates to recent events. Still, for Zodiac Killer enthusiasts, it’s a major disappointment.

this business about having slaves in “paradice” would seem to be a useful clue — I’ve never heard of that belief, I mean, outside of the Religion of Peace...

First half wasn't too bad. But, that last part was pretty much a $#!+fest.

Flame retardant suit ON
The Bill of Rights did not “grant” any right to any one.
How so? The BoR was a keeping of a promise which the Federalists were forced to make by the Antifederalists. But they faced a tricky problem, because rights codified in the first and second amendments - to make the most obvious point - already existed in the states under the Articles of Confederation. The intent of the first eight amendments was to be a shiny object - the real deal is
Amendment 9
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
and
Amendment 10
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

The original intent of the unamended Constitution is encapsulated in 9 and 10. And the proper meaning of 1 thru 8 is that they enumerate rights which uncontroversially preexisted the Constitution.

2A refers to “the” RKBA; in order to write the Heller decision Scalia did a deep dive into history to define exactly what the RKBA actually was when 2A referred to it. He did not just say, “anyone can have a nuclear bomb because RKBA.”

Contrariwise in the Sullivan decision the Warren Court glossed over all prior court rulings on the effect of 1A on libel law. Because they wanted to stop libel suits by public officials - and they made up a story to the effect that 1A modified libel law. When all 1A was intended to do was assure everyone that there would be no change in the right to speak and print. To have done anything else would have risked controversy which would endangered the legitimacy of the new Constitution.

Well, I guess I am now duly educated.

You sound like the type that when asked what time it is, you explain how a watch is built.

"I am not afraid of the gas chamber because it will send me to paradice (sic) all the sooner because I now have enough slaves to work for me."

So, does this prove he is/was a Muslim?

Not necessarily.

He may be/have been a Satanic cult worshiper, and his definition of ‘paradice’ is somewhat lower and hotter that ours is......

Yeah, I know - it’s my hobby horse. I heard that explanation from a Scalia video, and it really changed my outlook. So I’m a bit of an Evangelist about it ...

You wouldn’t happen to know what time it is, would you?
