We interrupt today's Ricochet Main Feed to remind you that if you need legal advice* our in-house legal mavens are standing by to answer your questions. Call (424) 652-8301 and leave your questions for professors Richard Epstein and John Yoo. We'll pick several of them and answer them on this week's show. 

*Actual legal advice is not offered. Mr. Yoo and Mr. Esptein give opinions on legal decisions, pending legislation, and cultural issues having to do with the law only, and are not going to help you bring your neighbor to small claims court or get you workman's comp.

I phoned but am not sure if you picked it up or not as there's no playback. I snuck in a question about Chicago deep dish style pizza. Hope you don't mind. On second thought, it doesn't matter to me one way or the other; I'm being catty.

I phoned in one to commemorate the 115th anniversary of Homer Plessy's act of civil disobedience. It referenced a post on Powerline dated June 7th. (I am unable to embed a hyperlink via my tablet. I guess my real question is one regarding the court's unwillingness to correct previous wrong decisions in particular as opposed to broad application.

Got that one too. Thanks.

I will, unfortunately, be unable to call the Ricochet Legal Hotline. While this may not be relevent to current legal topics, I have been working my way through Mr. Robinson's Hoover colleague, Michael McConnell, and his famous 1995 article entitled Originalism and the Desegregation Decisions. The topic may be dense but I would love to hear Professor Epstein's and Professor Yoo's take on the article (especially since Professor Epstein was thanked for his comments in the article).

My cell phone battery may have failed before the end of my call.  I would like to ask if Twitter, or Facebook could suddenly decide that it did not want its service used for conservative political discussions (some other specific ideology/ies), and forbid such use.  Is there a legal structure in place to prevent such?
