me it has been applied to the federal government.

Also, there was not a "motion" pending, there was a stay issued by the District Court, which had not been vacated by it (but that's a weak argument from the Sawyer, the stay was essentially vacated by the SCOTUS)

This is NOT a usual exeuction.

It may be the first time it’s happened with the Feds but it’s not unusual for Missouri for the process to play out exactly as that. - spamlet Jul 14, 07:45 10
- Just to be clear, you're not saying this is OK right ? Just that it happens all the time? -- nm - JackDawson Jul 14, 07:46
- I guess if it's good enough for Missouri... -- nm - znufrii, silly old man Jul 14, 07:46
- Which is bullshit when they do it and should be called out. -- nm - TWuG Jul 14, 07:46 7
  - Of course it should be but we also shouldn't pretend this isn't SOP. - spamlet Jul 14, 07:49 6
    - This is the first time it has happened at the federal level. That's worth noting and railing against. -- nm - TWuG Jul 14, 07:51
    - it is not federal government SOP-- you can keep saying it and it won't make it so -- nm - JackDawson Jul 14, 07:51 4
      - We should only get what Missouri gets, and like it. -- nm* - znufrii, silly old man Jul 14, 08:04 3
        
        Yep - that's EXACTLY what he said. nm -- nm - Daniel Prime Jul 14, 08:05 2
        
        really? And here I thought I was just using hyperbole in order to make a rhetorical point. But, if the shoe fits... -- nm - znufrii, silly old man Jul 14, 08:07 1
        
        Oh, silly me. I thought you were firing a second shot at both Missouri and spammy - since no one responded to the first one. -- nm - Daniel Prime Jul 14, 08:11
