Setting Up The Greenpeace Ship w/WiFi

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the no-comment-on-the-politics-involved dept.

An anonymous reader writes "If you're on any wifi related mailing lists, you've probably heard of Nigel Ballard of joejava.com, Minister of Propaganda for the Personal Telco Project in Portland Oregon. The Greenpeace vessel Arctic Sunrise came into Portland and wanted some an alternative to Inmarsat for their Internet access. Nigel set Greenpeace up with equipment and got VeriLAN to provide access."

    Terrorism as defined as killing civilians in order to influence government policies. Greenpeace does not do that.

    However, the NRA has had members that have gone on "rampages" in the south in order to make a statement against the unlawful federal government.

    The NRA has members who have bombed buildings in the US.

    The NRA suggests that gun use increase even though it has been proven that more guns is equal to more crime (while regulations on them reduces crimes).

    If we go by the logic republicans are using, the NRA is worse, since their members are more extreme and target civilians.

    (I can't count how many NRA members were happy that McVeigh targeted an Oklahoma city federal building after Clinton banned assault rifles.)
