@kennyb its because governments fear bands of people with strong opinions on virology but trouble filing a tax return might show up and in the name of a people under god storm and destroy a stockpile which needs to be kept at -70.

But we cant see that happening?

oh...wait....

Being Publicly assessable and Public Present are two very separate issues.

hahaha

perfect

You are fully able to observe the hearing, it's just available online rather than in person.

@Maw Not good enough. Then they will just stream the supreme court of Bejing instead.

But...who would we expect to fit that profile? No one has been groomed for that. @Doc

Then I believe It meets the Requirements?

Yep.

@kennyb do you know anyone that might be hostile to a truck full of covid-vaccines?

oh, neat! lets get the livestream so kenny can sleep.

I can't facepalm hard enough.

This is what happens when you're being so partisan that you constantly assume the other side is doing something that violates people's rights.

Ya'll are protesting an empty room.

@kennyb

which one is the secret one?

Wow

Im trying 4402

hold on

(interestingly the number for my closed ward)

(cant be a coincidence)

there are viewing stations on the outside of the building.

all my what.

Wouldn't limiting liability be in their favor so that they're more likely to open up and not be worried about being sued at every turn?

4402 specifically

@kennyb Great news! I am now inside. What should I look for?

The secret closet

Someone picking their nose.

the finger eater seems to be their leader.

Maybe for the Business Owners not necessarily the Attorneys?

... "trouble filling out tax return ..." ... guilty as charged, I hire a guy who has both a law degree and CPA to do my taxes each year ... still hoping in vain I reach the status one year and access the magical unicorn tax breaks for the rich

Or go off grid in another fashion. Either way.

@meglide haha...I hire a dude too.

looks like kenny left just as we cracked the case for him. People are ungrateful....

My mind is absolutely blown to think that people are currently protesting an empty building saying they want to observe, but don't observe the hearing on the outside of the capitol building.

good work, Maw! I am enjoying hearing about this.
