    The officer has a reasonable suspicion that you're likely to resist arrest if he attempts to arrest you so arrests you to prevent you from committing the crime?

  4. Re:Stupid is as stupid does. on Real-Life Frogger Ends In Hospital Visit · · Score: 1

    I'd like to hear the guy's own thoughts about he was doing. Playing frogger or just trying to get across a dangerous road (which is "playing frogger" either way).

    The young man, questioned in his hospital bed by police anxious to understand his actions, is reported to have replied 'ridibbit.'

    Hi

    Would you be kind enough to use the contact page on my website to send me a private message:

    Thanks :D

    I'm not quite sure why they chosen to do that

    I guess it's one more string to their bow. Now they're able to offer students experience with botnets - ready for the real world where they can go on to become some of the best botnet authours around :D

    PS. I'm sure you can do better than seven banner ads per eight-paragraph page. Please try harder.

    The RIAA might have a few things to say about that.

    "Damn you filthy file-sharers! Thanks to you, at my last party I only had seven buckets of blow and forty hookers rather than the ten buckets and sixty hookers that are accepted as an industry-norm for this type of affair. Damn you all!"

    for example

  8. Re:This isn't news this is Gossip. on Designer Arrested Over Anonymous Press Release · · Score: 1

    Even though they're a bunch of slimy spin-merchants, surely the lizards within US government would just love to speak the truth publicly:

      "Look, here's how it is people; we're gonna do whatever the fuck we want to to ensure that our interests are protected at the expense of everyone else's. If you think you're not gonna play ball, we're gonna send covert death-squads to convince you then all have a laugh as we put the blame on some rough terrorist organisation which, truth be told, we actually created, trained and funded for quite some time.

    Hey, if you really piss us off we're gonna bring you democracy and unleash deranged farmboys in attack helicopters on yo ass.

    For the next round of laughs, the media are gonna run whatever mickey-mouse-bullshit story we tell them to whilst you bunch of retards sit around watching american idol.

    Suck it up. You lose, we win - AMERIKKKA!!
    "

    or something similar?

  9. Re:Doomed on Michael Moore Posts Julian Assange's Bail · · Score: 1

    You are correct. They are irrational and messed-up for reasons entirely unrelated to me or my opinion.

    Who can say why someone would persistently gravitate towards objects whose sole purpose is to kill/maim other living things - all the while using lame justifications such as "guns don't kill people, gun-nuts do" etc. ?

    Can you drive a bullet? Take the kids to the mall with one? Cruise Main Street? Move across town?

    Can you use a bullet for anything - and I mean ANYTHING - other than being a projectile weapon?

    You're wasting your time. These people want their guns for reasons generated by the non-rational mind and will use whatever messed-up justifications they can come up with.

    Most of the people who 'disagree' with him would rather continue to blind themselves to the fact that they are directly or indirectly profiting from corruption and abuse of power.

  12. Re:Surprise move? on Judge Declares Federal Healthcare Plan (Partly) Unconstitutional · · Score: 1

    The real question is not whether this bill is unconstitutional, most laws are unconstitutional. The question is why does this law get questioned, when other laws that are just as clearly unconstitutional get a pass?

    Because the status quo has cash- and corruption-powered momentum. No matter how appalling your 'healthcare' system is nor how aware the population is that they are being robbed and offered third-rate healthcare in return, nothing will change.

    Last I checked, 2 wrongs don't make a right.

    You need to check again. When the first wrong involves distorting the law to make moral actions illegal, the second wrong does make a right.

    And it must cease because modern civilization can't exist in the climate of fear he is trying to create.

    Which planet do you live on? It seems to have escaped your notice that recently, modern civilization is defined by a climate of fear. Every newscast seems finely balanced to ensure that each viewer has multiple reasons to fear for the world, their country and their family; followed by an up-beat story about a dug or other cute animal so as to give you the mental stamina to tune-in for tomorrow's fear-fest.

    Come on. You cannot seriously tell me that there's anything less going on here than a deliberate attempt to keep the ordinary people afraid.

    Not necessarily. Maybe just that it's possible for a government stooge / FUD-monger to have a low UID.

    Yet America is still one of the few countries willing to honestly face its past and try to redress things it's done wrong.

    As they so skillfully demonstrated by attempting to DDoS wikileaks then when that failed, direct attention away from their wrongdoing "by outing us for being manipulative hypocrites, you have put lives at risk".

    In fact, your ability to protect your private packets is much stronger than your ability to protect your private mail.

    How so? The contents of paper-based mail can be encrypted with a public key too and additionally has a sticky envelope flap!
