No. I mean if Apple had said that they're LCD's had 1,048,576 colors then yes, you could sue them. However the term 'millions' is often used even when there aren't. There are millions of articles online to this affect.
Innocent until proven guilty. Yes. However, that was before DNA, and computers. People may still be innocent until proven guilty, but if they don't even TRY to prove themselves innocent then we have a reasonable assumption that they are guilty.
Honestly, say someone walked in with a large bulge in their jacket, and you ask what it is. Since you need to prove them guilty, should they not be required to show you until you prove they have a bomb?
The only solution to Illegal immigration is to remove minimum wage laws. This will generate more jobs, as a result reducing unemployment. Enforcing the law on immigration would be great too, because now all those people without jobs would be able to get one:)
My question is, how long until Google gets sued as an accomplice to a crime? I'm sure I could google how to commit a perfect murder... so are they helping me commit that crime if I did?
As much as I hate government waste, this is a somewhat reasonable project. In reality, LA, DC, NYC, other landmark cities- the ones that would deal a real blow to the country if they came down (Less than say Lincoln, Nebraska, or Pierre. or Bismark). That said, 1: Whats going to generate the power? and 2: What about a backup generator? If it really only cost 40 mil it wouldn't be so bad. but it'll probably cost about 400 mil.
Nuclear power anyone? It's cheap. It releases less radiation than coal fired plants (coal contains uranium). It's not something where we would be dependent on the middle east (a lot of uranium comes from Canada).
In response to talk about nuclear waste, I say that 1: bury it, and 2: Hopefully, in a few years fusion will be usable, if not perfected, and even cheaper, and safer because it uses hydrogen isotopes, to create things that aren't radioactive.
Regardless of its cause... so if CO2 wasn't the cause we should still reduce it? The Asteroid is a different example. It would be similar to someone saying strip mines on asteroid belt were causing asteriods to fly out and hit us, except that they weren't, and it was say aliens. Yes, regardless of what the cause was we should fix it, but we shouldn't get rid of the strip mines that are a vital part of the economy, instead we should seek out the aliens and stop them.
Most climatologists would say so... but the rest have doubts, which are, considering there is more than just a few, reasonably. Also, try to remember that there are a lot of professions as a whole that tend to have biases
Unfortunately, to avoid liability, most websites say that content is owned by the person who posted it.../. has it in the 'fine print' at the top of the page. This is why the ground is so messy, because Flickr doesn't own the content.
... And the best policy is a competent teach who knows that water freezes at 0 degrees centigrade at sea level... and what they do is say... Oh wait, you're right!
I'll take beyond the shadow of a reasonable doubt.
CO2 absorbs infrared radiation. That moves you from merely correlation to causation. This is one piece of evidence. There is probably more to the story.
I'm just wondering... but wouldn't that be slander/libel/defamation?
The elements that must be proved to establish defamation are: (1) A publication to one other than the person defamed; (2) of a false statement of fact; (3) which is understood as being of and concerning the plaintiff; and (4) which is understood in such a way as to tend to harm the reputation of plaintiff.

If Microsoft loses/gives up and this is their purpose, could THEY be sued?
So demonstrate the bias. Wild claims of "there could be bias" without actually pointing out the bias are worthless. Now let us apply this to your last statement: How many of them are not getting paid by fossil fuel industries
fossil fuel consuming industries... are every industry because every industry uses power!
And do you know what else is a wild claim... humans are causing global warming. So far I have seen conclusive evidence that A: The earth is warming. B: CO2/Greenhouse gas levels are rising. C: In the past, global warming and CO2/Greenhouse gas levels rose at the same time. Sadly, Correlation does not equal Causation. In addition, global warming has been happening for hundreds of year... It has been a few hundred years since the last spurt of global warming. Of course, in 1400 there wasn't any industry.
If someone could CONCLUSIVLY prove that humans are the sole cause of global warming, and that global warming is not natural, and that it is bad, I would listen. Unfortunately they have yet to do so.
Personally, I find all of the lights in my house annoying. If there was a way to turn them off without messy digging in the device and cutting things, I would use it.
First of all, I don't think that one search engine is any more or less efficient than many. However Google has been using their search engine monopoly to gain other monopolies (advertising, they have a large part of the online video 'market' etc.)
Regardless, if it is so bad for people, let them make their mistakes. Don't try to micromanage people's lives. They tried it some while ago. It was called COMMUNISM!
Single white line... isn't it just recommended that you not cross those? I'm pretty sure its not illegal. Also, do you know another group of people who drive badly?
I have nothing against free speech. That doesn't mean you can't respond to someone saying something. Of course he can say how he hates America. And I can say that if he really hated America, he wouldn't live there. Or Consume products from it. Or produce products for it etc.
Frankly, I hate all of the politicians- they have lost all meaning, as all they do now is compete for power. I simply feel that the republicans are less bad than the democrats.
An interesting thing I noticed is that the "National Security"- wiretapping etc. is the government trying to usurp power. At the same time, so is Environmentalism, which creates more regulation etc. The only difference is which party gets to ruin your life.
One Zybot is a real problem. Two less so. Three even less. And a hundred? Not a problem at all. The solution? Vote third party.
Also, its not the White Males who get oppressed, its the minorities who are 'Discriminated against,' which I probably should have said. Meaning that its only minorities who aren't rich. Which is to say, its the white men and the asians who are oppressed.

bad... or maybe good.
Quiet. The Democrats might realize what they're doing!

Maybe thats why Mars has global warming too. Or maybe its the sun.

A "Constitutionally Legal War' is one approved by Congress. Some of you might still be in denial about it, but it most certainly did happen.
If you hate America so much, leave. Go to some country non NATO country.
