Hello All,

Does anyone know the laws regarding freedom of speech as it pertains to an author selling their own written work on a street corner/side walk. I have been harrassed by L&I in my city because I don't have a vendors license but I've been told that freedom of speech should protect me. Now is it because I am selling and not giving away my books?

I live in Philadelphia but I've checked New York laws and they allow book sellers to sell under the Freedom of Speech ammendment.

I guess my question is can city's interperit the Constitution however they see fit.

Flat tire

What is the name of your state? Washington State

Who is responsible for tire damage to a vehicle? The vehicle was driven to a store that was recently built and was having a grand opening.

After shopping in the new store the vehicle owner comes out to find an obvious heavy duty construction type staple sticking out of the back tire of the motorcycle. The vehicle owner pulls out some but, part is burried deep. For this type of tire the repair is replacement and costly.

Can the Store be held responsible for the damages?

My opinion is no.

Prove the staple came from the store.
