Darwinism doesn't work if the strong are too weak willed to fight back because it may offend or bother the ACLU. You want surviaval of the fitest and the week and dumb to be protected.
You sir scare the bejesus out of me. The idea of prosecutors using your logic keeps me up nights.
Please learn hwo government works. It is not something. It is a group of people elected by the whole. They represent the intrest of the majority, not just you.
Ya that and gasoline is avital part of our economy.
The government get taxes from everything, including YOU. Does that mean the reason it is illegal to kill you, is that the government does not want to miss out on the money?
I think it is great that we are using new laws to "crack down on currency smugglers, bookies, con artists and drug dealers." Giving these people a break is not something I'm interested in doing. I don't give a bug a break when it crashes my software(and thats 100% my fault), why should I give a person a break who wants to "crash" society?
I also applaud the North Carolina county prosecutor who charged a guy cooking crystal meth with manufacture of chemical weapons, because the law defines chemical weapons as "any substance that is designed or has the capability to cause death or serious injury." And crystal meth sure has the capability to cause death or serious injury. I applaud him just as I would a prosecutor who charged someone who hacked into a computer and vandalized data, with the same law that protects you from someone breaking in and vandalizing the files in a desk.
The article points out, "Prosecutors aren't apologizing." Good! Why would or should they apologize for using the law to do their job and put criminals in jail. Since when is that a bad thing? Most people reading slashdot are well insulated from those who are trying to raise kids with a meth lab full of tweekers next door, or the single mother who hopes her kid can walk to school without too much hassle from the local drug dealers. I'll give a crap about what some left wing nerd thinks about the government should treat and prosecute criminals right after I take C++ coding style advice from Howard Dean or George Bush.
People who call others stupid fuck, rarly have points. Student and Work Visa are not entirely different, they are fruit of the same tree.
I am not in charge of visas so I don't see how what I want has anything to do with it. So what I am about, is logical thought. A skill that allows people to see that actions, letting anyone into the US for a student visa and not keeping track off them because the INS is too screwed and the schools are so beholend to leftists they will not keep any tabs on visa students that many out of a group of oh say 11 get those student visas and kill 3,000 people.
The rights that are not enjoyed are not basic rights, (people are not tortured) but others like how long you can be held without trial, constant access to lawyers, etc..
No we cannot get them out after they are done studying. I wish we could but we are very very bad at it. Many American schools don't or won't keep track of student visas, even if it is against the law.
Why don't you try and look a little farther than your nose-tip...
Rather than be enterprising in the US, be enterprising in your own nation. If taxes or something else blocks your effort work to change it. You do not have right to come to the US and do what you want. I'm sorry that you have trouble understanding this, but you are not alone.
I would never expect France or another nation to let me work just because I want to. Let alone let more H1B workers in during the current economic forces, which in many cases may mean a missed job for a citizen.
You seem to be a smart and hard working person, a good addition to the states. But if for what ever reason you cannot get in when you what, for what you want... tough.
I truly feel sorry for Thomas Butler and others who "mishandle" pathogens. "He is a victim of circumstance... his handling of the biological samples was no different than other scientists' techniques."
Who does the FBI think they are questioning Academics, they are above the law!
Now I'm off to go "mishandle" a.44 Handgun in the city. If any one tries to arrest me, I plan on saying, "What is the big deal, I'm just mishandling this gun like so many others on the 10 o'clock news."
Screw Ashcroft. If he would just go away the world could hold hands and sing in one voice.
How could anyone have any question about this being a good thing? Microsoft is not building the school nor is it paying for the school to be built. The local school board is building it and MS is contributing technology and services to the school to see what happens to education when the school is afforded every technological luxury possible. This is an experiment! If afterwards the students bought MS products for themselves, so what, they are likely to anyway. If some of the students went on to be programmers and favored the Windows OS and Visual Studio, so what, it is already likely. Coke and Pepsi already give money to schools to put in only their product. Aside from the questions of health, do we cry out the these children's minds have been warped in the decision of who to favor in the cola wars? No.
If it was not for Microsoft this school would still be built, it just wouldn't have the technology.
I have the suspicion that those who object to this would think it would be the coolest thing if RedHat decided to help a school become a pure Linux organization, with a Zarus PDA for every child.
This gives rise to a solution to these and similar lawsuits. Whether or not the ISP's have a choice in turning over the customer information when they have the IP address subpoenaed it does generate a loss because they will have staff or outside lawyers look into it on every case. If this continues and expands then it may be cost prohibitive to the point that the ISP's just stop logging. I think larger ISP's might do this to avoid billable hours and small ISP's will do it as a feature.
Will people be happy to get rid of that static IP for a dynamic one?
1. National Holiday to vote! Voting takes 15-30 minutes, not all day. Many people in labour unions do have that day as a holiday by contract. Most people don't vote, so why should everyone have the day off for a half hour task? Polls open before most start work and after most end work. If you wan't to vote on an existing holiday or swap, fine. But it does not warrent a new one.
2. There is an economic barrier in the 37 cent stamp for a mail in ballot. There is an economic barrier in owning a car to drive to the polls. There is an economic barrier in owning a computer with a Free OS and Windows does NOT cost $400. Your logic is very flawed.
3. Convenience in voting is not a RIGHT, nor a goal. Voting is a civic duty that MOST people choose to ignore. Going to the polling place for 15 minutes is convenient enough and provides oneself with the warm feeling of civic pride.
4. WTF are you talking about "Rich" people voting in their comfortable homes. This system is for people voting overseas or in the military. If you can remeber back to the last election overseas and military voting is not what one would call a reliable process. That is the goal here, not convenience.
Being rich is not a crime, it is a reward for innovative work and thought. Two things that are far too lacking in America today.
Should we also be sure that the traffic is routed away from ISP's that have broken laws?
To quote Dr. Phil, "Get Real!"
Because a Company breaks the law it doesn't been the should be dis-allowed from government ties. We can't even keep individuals who break the law out of goverment.

Producing gasoline is not illegal. Producing crystal meth is.
Please chug gasoline. Please.

Thank you, I do.
If you didn't know. The super vast majority of those accused of being communists by McCarthy were.
People who oppose the interests of the United States and its ability to protect itself are traitors.
If the US government is too unbearable, then go to a nation that more suits your taste.

Non-Citizens who are not protected by all our laws.
If you don't think that full protection is fair, too bad. But don't travel to other places, as you will not enjoy the same rights as those citizens.
Oh... you are such a smart person. Boy I bet your are the life of the party and get all the girls.
Well you used the quote, so I'd like to see what you have to say... but off the top of my head...
Right to Life
Right to Vote
Right to Religion

Yes and after studying are they going to want to get a high paying job in the US?
What do you think you stupid fuck?
No "essential" liberty has be given up. Please same one.

My Computer warms the room without the BIOS Prom just fine.
Good Point. It could be for support issues also. But I doubt it's Java. Personally, I'd like to see it not be something so easy to decompile.
No. It's an OS. By your logic even a BIOS would be "special software"
