I am fine with Dibble's rewording, except I assume criminals intent" should be "criminal intent".

No, it's criminals as in the plural of criminal. So, in other words one or more criminals with the intent of causing harm.

I would then think it would be criminal(s) intent.  The way it's worded right now, it means to me that their would have to be more than one criminal to protect this right fully.

Well, yeah, if you were the most most idiotic judge on the planet, lol.

I still would not prefer to give any judge the chance to earn that moniker, so I'd like the change.

I like Emsworth's best; I'll introduce it.

On Emsworth's version, I would certainly vote aye.

I'm going to start bumping these three amendments that the Senate passed to remind Regions that on two of them, it has been over a month since two were passed, three weeks on the other were passed, and still many regions have not started votes on them.

As GM-elect, a position I will be taking over once the Southeast runoff is concluded, I am giving a fair warning that not-so-nice things will start to happen unless these amendments come up for a vote, just so they can be avoided in advance (I don't want to have bad things happen).  Smiley

This amendment has been voted on and passed in the following Regions:
Southeast
Midwest


This amendment still has a voting booth open on this amendment in the following Region:
Northeast

This amendment has not yet been voted on in the following Regions:
Mideast
Pacific
