A BILL FOR AN ACT
Relating to terrorism; creating new provisions; and amending
section 19, chapter 666, Oregon Laws 2001.
Be It Enacted by the People of the State of Oregon:
SECTION 1. [ + (1) A person commits the crime of terrorism if
the person knowingly plans, participates in or carries out any
act that is intended, by at least one of its participants, to
disrupt:
(a) The free and orderly assembly of the inhabitants of the
State of Oregon;
(b) Commerce or the transportation systems of the State of
Oregon; or
(c) The educational or governmental institutions of the State
of Oregon or its inhabitants.
(2) A person commits the crime of terrorism if the person
conspires to do any of the activities described in subsection (1)
of this section.
(3) A person may not be convicted of terrorism except upon the
testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act or upon
confession in open court.
(4)(a) A person convicted of terrorism shall be punished by
imprisonment for life.
(b) When a person is convicted of terrorism under this section,
the court shall order that the person be confined for a minimum
of 25 years without possibility of parole, release to post-prison
supervision, release on work release or any form of temporary
leave or employment at a forest or work camp.
(c) At any time after completion of a minimum period of
confinement pursuant to paragraph (b) of this subsection, the
State Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision, upon the
petition of a prisoner so confined, shall hold a hearing, the
sole issue of which is to determine whether the prisoner is
likely to be rehabilitated within a reasonable period of time.
The board shall conduct the proceeding in the manner prescribed
for a contested case hearing under ORS 183.310 to 183.550 except
that:
(A) The prisoner has the burden of proving by a preponderance
of the evidence the likelihood of rehabilitation within a
reasonable period of time; and
(B) The prisoner has the right, if the prisoner is without
sufficient funds to employ an attorney, to be represented by
legal counsel, appointed by the board, at board expense.
(d) If, upon hearing all of the evidence and upon a unanimous
vote of all of its members, the board finds that the prisoner is
capable of rehabilitation within a reasonable amount of time and
that the terms of the prisoner's confinement should be changed to
life imprisonment with the possibility of parole, release to
post-prison supervision or work release, the board shall enter an
order to that effect and convert the terms of the prisoner's
confinement to life imprisonment with the possibility of parole,
release to post-prison supervision or work release and may set a
release date. Otherwise, the board shall deny the relief sought
in the petition.
(e) Not less than two years after the denial of the relief
sought in a petition under paragraph (c) of this subsection, the
prisoner may petition again for a change in the terms of
confinement. Further petitions for a change may be filed at
intervals of not less than two years thereafter. + ]
SECTION 2. [ + Notwithstanding ORS 181.575 and 181.850, a law
enforcement agency shall cooperate with any federal or state
agency that is investigating an act of terrorism, and a law
enforcement agency may retain any information relating to an
investigation of terrorism as long as the investigation remains
open. The Attorney General shall adopt rules governing the
retention of such information. + ]

Does anyone in Oregon have any information backing this up??????????

damn oregon sucks. how do you get life just for being shot by a rubber bullet in the middle of portland, and preventing a civiv from getting to the nearest dairy queen. that's ridiculous. stupid oreginian gov't

There's another thread here, which is an email propogating people to be against the bill.

My concern isn't that, yes the bill should NOT pass, however, my problem is if this propogation is going out to people who are not even from Oregon.

It's Oregon's business, and must be settled in Oregon, the only right a state does not have, is that to chose a state government that is not democratic, but other than that the laws are supposed to be held to the states.

No one but the Federal Government should be allowed to intervene (in this case by voicing opinion) and only the Federal Government, when the Bill of Rights is at an issue.

States Rights are all too sadly a figment of the past these days.

Yes, this is an Oregonia issue, however, it is also an example of the Cabal playing the "sausage game": The cabal knows full well that if you take the entire sausage, you will start a revolt. But, they have patience... therefore, they take a small piece, not big enough to get upset about or to fight over... then they take another small piece... eventually, they have it all, and we sit idly by and watch it happen.

Either take a stand and prevent it where it happens, or be prepared to end your life on a cattle car in the middle of nowhere enroute to the new extermination camps.

Ahh but don't you see, in Freedom the only enemy is a central Government.

What independants states do, is usually more reflective of the people of that state, and other states learn from the issue.

For instance California deregulated their power, were hit with that crisis, and consequently, Nevada decided to NOT deregulate their power.

Imagine if it were a Central Government plan, the whole country would have gone into brown outs, and possibly worse economic disasters.

So our system does still work.

Though I don't think it is a conspiracy, just the dumbing down of America through no "malicious" reasons.

If you want to look at it as a conspiratorial view, then it would be the enemy making the good look bad, and the ignorant serving the enemy thinking they are good, when they are evil.

Explaination: Oregon, becomes an example of how Federalism can fail, so the Central Government steps in as a hero, banishing the Oregon Senate Bill, and claiming it should have the right to do so in any circumstance to prevent such bills being passed in any state.

Today it is preventing State legislation on "unconstitutional" items, tomorrow it is banning state legislation on all items.

Now the Central Government really has you by the balls.

Too bad most Americans are now too stupid in politics, to understand the consequence of letting the Central Government be the savior.

We are our own saviors, this is a Democracy.
