yes the man who wrote that article is Thomas Thornhill. He lives in Nevada City California. He and I have studied alot together, and I concider him a close personal friend. I also believe that he has written some of the best cited articles ever and leaves nothing up to personal conclusion (Just reasonable infrences.) I cannot thank Thomas enough for teaching me how weak conjecture is and how important a cite is. I have posted alot of Thomas's research on the sui juris project thread or Registration thread. I am pretty sure that the key these artguments are missing that Thomas's are not is the link of legislative history and original intent. I have not seen the original intent issue brought up on these forums.
What is brought up is only some later codes with nothing to bring the force of the original enactment up.
This is why I keep saying I agree witht he premiss, it just that the cites I see will not work by themselves.
