The Direct Marketing Association, an industry group, filed a lawsuit against the FTC last month on grounds the registry unlawfully restricts free speech." Someone should remind the Direct Marketing Association that their right to free speech ends at my front door in much the same way that one's right to swing one's fist ends at another person's face. And if this law will "devastate their business", I submit that perhaps they were in the wrong business to begin with. --Jason ------ End of Forwarded Message ------------------------------------- You are subscribed as interesting-people () lists elistx com To manage your subscription, go to http://v2.listbox.com/member/?listname=ip Archives at: http://www.interesting-people.org/archives/interesting-people/
