September 29, 2003 - Fox News, DaySide with Linda Vester:
Rob Scott provides commentary on the federal court decisions that are threatening the implementation of the national do-not call registry, set to go into effect on October 1. A federal district judge in Colorado ruled that the list creates content-based restrictions that violate the telemarketers' First Amendment rights.

Mr. Scott believes that the best approach to a constitutional do-not call registry would be to allow registrants to opt in or out of each category of telemarketing. Registrants could then decide if they wanted political and charitable telemarketers to be able to contact them, and the registry itself would be content-neutral.

Rob Scott provides commentary on the federal court decision that stopped the national do-not call registry from going into effect. A federal district judge in Oklahoma ruled that the registry, scheduled for implementation on October 1, should not go forward because the Federal Trade Commission acted without the proper authority in the creation of the list.

Mr. Scott believes that this decision will not hold up on appeal because Congress expressly authorized the FTC to maintain a national database and has subsequently issued appropriations to finance the national do-not call list.

Rob Scott provides commentary on the motion filed by former Roe v. Wade plaintiff, Norma McCorvey. Ms. McCorvey filed a motion in the federal district court in Dallas seeking to re-open the landmark 1973 abortion case and have the judgment vacated due to changes in factual conditions and law in the 30 years since the original ruling. Mr. Scott believes that this motion is politically motivated and has little to no chance of success.

Rob Scott speaks with Heather Behrens about the motion filed in Dallas' federal district court by Norma McCorvey. Ms. McCorvey, former plaintiff in 1973's Roe v. Wade abortion case, has changed her stance on the topic of abortion and seeks to have the case re-opened and the judgment vacated. McCorvey claims that there is new evidence that abortion is harmful to women, including affidavits of over 1000 women who claim to have had bad experiences after exercising their right to have an abortion.

Mr. Scott believes that this motion has no legal foundation, and that while the evidence McCorvey is citing may be important to the political debate on abortion rights, it is irrelevant to the question presented by the motion.

Rob Scott provides commentary on the Greenpeace protests at ExxonMobil. Greenpeace disrupted the ExxonMobil headquarters in Irving early on May 27 with protesters chaining themselves to police-style vans and blocking the site entrance. A banner was hung on the roof declaring the site a "global warming crime scene," and protesters illegally entered to building to charge Exxon officials with an unacceptable lack of action against the global warming problem.

Mr. Scott says that when protesters willfully commit crimes such as trespassing during their protests, they are going far beyond their First Amendment rights. He adds that criminal actions during a protest are not only not protected under the Constitution, but are just as punishable as any other crime.

Rob Scott provides commentary about free speech rights and protest zones in a debate with Ken Paulson from the First Amendment Center. Universities across the nation set off First Amendment watchdogs when they established "protest zones" in an attempt to curb disruption from recent on-campus protests. Mr. Scott does not believe that the imposition of protest zones presents a threat to First Amendment Rights. He says that protest zones are not a new idea. They allow protesters to exercise their freedom of speech while decreasing safety concerns and the possibility of disruption.

March 26, 2003 - Texas Radio News Network:
Rob Scott provides legal commentary on Lawrence v. State of Texas, the same-sex sodomy case before the Supreme Court. Mr. Scott concludes that for the Texas statute to be struck down, the Court will have to overturn its 1986 ruling in Bowers v. Hardwick, which held that homosexuals have no constitutional right to engage in private, consensual sexual acts.
