Non-Sequiturs: 02.29.16

* The secret career Ted Cruz doesn’t want you to know about. [Gawker] * Donald Trump is promising to come after the First Amendment if elected president. Reason number 1,238,108 to do everything in our power to make sure he is never president. [CNN] * Bad news for Republicans: history is not on your side. The latest number crunching you can cite at cocktail parties when the topic of the Supreme Court’s vacancy comes up. [Washington Post] * Hoverboards, scooters, and bikes -- oh my! Do you know all the laws governing use of these leisure vehicles (at least in New York)? [Cityland] * Hey! Whaddya know! Gun law really do work -- it’s science. [Vox] * A judge in the UK changed a suspended sentence into jail time after she was mocked by the defendants on Facebook in a lewd post. Just a reminder, no matter what Donald Trump does, you really shouldn't f*ck with judges. [The Mirror] * Lawyers need these two things in order to be successful. [Associate’s Mind] * This is why having the right language interpreter is so important in court. [Katz Justice] * Expect Justice Scalia’s passing to have a pretty big impact on business, as the Roberts Court, with Justice Scalia, was the most pro-business court since WW2. [New Yorker]
