Ilya Shapiro lousy legal scholar, Jonah Goldberg ignorant fool

As legal scholar Ilya Shapiro writes, “It cannot be any other way; in a world where corporations are not entitled to constitutional protections, the police would be free to storm office buildings and seize computers or documents. The mayor of New York City could exercise eminent domain over Rockefeller Center by fiat and without compensation if he decides he’d like to move his office there. . . . [R]ights-bearing individuals do not forfeit those rights when they associate in groups.” NRO

Why does idiocy migrate to the law?

 Shareholder property rights, outside or inside, the corporation have never been threatened. Their rights protected in search and seizure rules because they are people rights, the right of property owners. This bozo forget that corporations are owned by shareholders, and then he gets Jonah Goldberg to believe  his fantasy.

There has never been a legal right to invade corporatation, just like there is never a right to invade the home of shareholders, the right ties to the people.

NRO please get a better legal scholar to quote, look for someone not quite the Dim Bulb, look outside your circle (step out of the box, maybe?)

Goldberg is more of a partisan hack than an ignorant fool. I believe he knows better, but like the one or two intellectual republicans still in existence he is willing to lie to promote the ridiculous and evil neo-con agenda.
