I love to get honist answers for questions.
What happened to the Maloney vs. Rice case? Case number: 2:2003cv00786?
After the case reached the US Supreme Court the case was reversed and remanded. Was any decision ever made when it got back to New York? Is there a place that I can get a transcript without paying for it?
2 AnswersLaw Enforcement & Police8 years agoWhat is the title of this folk song & where can I get sheet music for it?
Part of it is in the book “Woman at Arms”.
"'A story, a story
Unto you I will tell,
Concerning a brave hero,
One Christian Schell.
"'Who was attacked by the savages.
And Tories, it is said;
But for this attack
Most freely they bled.
"'He fled unto his house
For to save his life.
Where he had left his arms
In care of his wife.
"'They advanced upon him
And began to fire,
But Christian with his blunderbuss
Soon made them retire.
"'He wounded Donald McDonald
And drew him in the door,
Who gave an account
Their strength was sixty-four.
"'Six there was wounded
And eleven there was killed
Of this said party,
Before they quit the field.'
1 AnswerCountry9 years agoWhat is the soft tissue section between the index finger & thumb called?
I am looking for anatomical term for the skin & muscle between the metacarpals of the index finger and thumb. I am going to be teaching a safety class on prevention of swallowing harmful objects. Students learn to press behind the Temporomandibular joint to do this. It has been years sense I learned this technique & I no longer remember the technical or informal name.
3 AnswersBiology9 years agoWhat is Cycloastragenol? Why does the FDA not know about it?
I tried to look it up on the FDA website and it turned up nothing The FDA website tried to modify my foxfire browser when I went to input my question. So, my security program blocked me from asking there. I can only find a Wikipedia stub and commercial websites. I would like a non biased review and any other technical info that is not sales related.

4 AnswersLaw Enforcement & Police9 years agoIs California penal code 12020 no longer in effect or just the part on nunchaku?
First the reverse and remand of Maloney v. rice 2010 by the Supreme Court. Then PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA Plaintiff, vs. DASVIR BAINS. The judge tossed out the case with what seemed like pride. Is CPC 12020 gone? Are only the sections related to nunchaku?. Also, if it only applies to nunchaku does this mean that if a person has 2 singular sticks must they be connecting them with a rope or something? Are there in existence any laws other than 12020 against nunchaku now in CA. Does this apply to all people or just felons?
I am writing a paper on this to turn in later.
Law & Ethics9 years agoAfter the McDonald v. Chicago decision, is it likely that I will be allowed to carry a stick to defend myself?
After the McDonald v. Chicago decision, is it likely that I will be allowed to carry a stick to defend myself from dangerous dogs. I work as a Guard and do not need one for humans, but on my days off I jog. I have been chased by multiple bulldogs. One bulldog evasion required me to run through ongoing traffic (it weighed about 140lbs+-). I have encountered mountain Lyons on two recent occasions. CA12020 denies clubs and such. I have no interest in knifing or shooting a dog or Lyon. The ruling said that am entitled to have traditional weapons for self-defense. Even a caveman had a stick. How much more traditional does a weapon have to be.
