Re: boy this is sickening
said by King P  :Not to start a flame war, but I hope BellSouth burns for this... Who cares about flame war? I hate that term moderators like to throw around to control what we say in forums. Sometimes things need to be said and said a lot. BS is decalring war on the people of Lafayette. The elected officials by the people of city should do what the people told them too, and that is build FTTP. DAMN, the courts and BS, as long as nobody is being harmed then the project should go forward.
In the words of Johnny Storm, "FLAME ON". (ok that was corny) |

agreed. I guess it means the corporations have more power in this country than the actual citizens. The citizens want it, they voted for it, there shouldn't be any question. The local government needs to find a way to make it difficult for Bell South to do business there so they can leave. |

said by ronpin :The appeals court went on to distinguish between a pledge and an assignment, then stated that the city ordinance fails to provide for a requirement of default before using residual revenues to repay the fiber bonds. That is prohibited, the court ruled.
Another violation of the Fair Competition Act occurs because the bond ordinance calls for five funds to handle money for the fiber project instead of a single fund as required by law, the appeal court ruled. Seems like simply outsourcing to somebodies 'bro-law would fix it eh? As long as that bro-in-law was a relative of a BS exec, then I'm sure it would be fine and dandy.

said by King P :Damn the courts, build it anyway. You don't have to damn the courts. You just need to impeach the judges and have them removed, use a recall election to get rid of them, or vote them out of office. I'm not sure what sort of relief the Louisiana constitution provides for this sort of situation.

Look at the Big Picture
I wonder when SBC/ATT will try and buy BellSouth. Is BellSouth fighting this alone or do they have help? Something to think about. |

They will, at least I hope they will. And they can't start on the project, the courts could throw contempt's at the project planners. |
