Shurtleff on Dexter - 8/5 @ 11:30


For those who listen to talk radio, a great opportunity to ask our AG about the
UofU gun suit or any other gun issues.



---------- Forwarded Message ----------

Attorney General Mark Shurtleff will be on my show next Tuesday, August 5,
starting around 11:30 AM. He is scheduled to stay to the end of the show
(1:00 PM) and probably will if callers are polite and civil when they rip
him a new one over SB 31, the return of asset forfeiture, a/k/a "legalized
theft."

Since General Shurtleff, as he likes to be called, is an attorney, it's a
very good idea to be familiar with the exact language of Senator John
Valentine's bill. So here 'tis:

http://www.le.state.ut.us/~2003/htmdoc/sbillhtm/SB0031.htm.

Mark has told me that he'd also like to discuss the U of U gun lawsuit or
the applicability of Lawrence v. Texas to Utah laws.

Keep in mind that call volume may require shorter calls so please ask your
main question first and try not to cover areas already discussed unless you
have a different angle.

BTW, here is General Shurtleff's defense of SB 31:

> I do believe that with all the due process in place and several disconnects
> between seizure, forfeiture and appropriation, that some of the money seized,
> and at least costs and fees associated with the seizure and forfeiture, should
> be returned to law enforcement to continue to fight crime. I am a strong
> advocate of private property and requiring law enforcement and government to
> do their jobs properly, lawfully and constitutionally so as to protect the
> rights of citizens, but I also have more faith than many of my detractors in
> the legal system and our police and feel we need to supply them with the
> reasonable opportunity to ensure domestic tranquility and protect the law
> abiding and the innocent.

It will be an interesting show.

If you can't listen to the radio, tune in on the internet.
