I still do occasional support for my ex-girlfriend's mother's small business. She is an ultra-liberal feminazi type. I recall a few months ago mentioning a dongle... and she cracked a "haha dongle sounds like a slang word for penis" type of joke.
That is funny. And exactly the problem they have trying to make us men feel guilty about these things. They make the same comments, in the same innocent manner, and would be shocked if they found out that someone felt offended by their words. (Not that you were offended, I imagine.)
So... you're saying that people SHOULDN'T have ever need to register to use an object who's sole purpose is to murder what it's pointed at, be it animal, target, or person?
How does a person 'murder' a paper target? I would think the tree that was cut down to make the paper was already dead before the bullet is fired.
But on a serious point - If someone breaks into my house a 3am and attacks me, it is not murder for me to defend myself by any means necessary.
He's not talking about defending your baseball bat from theft, moron. He's talking about using it to prevent intruders from raping your wife, mother, or child.
You have got to be kidding. Look at the Wikipedia pages for the 5 that decided the government can take your land and give it to a corporation:
Ginsberg, Ruth Bader - Appointed by Bill Clinton, liberal Breyer, Steven Gerald - Appointed by Bill Clinton, liberal Stevens, John Paul - Appointed by Gerald Ford, started out conservative, but by 2003 was the most liberal member, upheld abortion rights and affirmative action Kennedy, Anthony - Appointed by Ronald Reagan, swing vote, joined liberal block to uphold Roe v. Wade and limit capital punishment Souter, David - Appointed by George H. W. Bush, started out conservative but moved left of Ginsberg, upheld abortion and sided with Gore in 2000
So, just because three of those were appointed by Republican presidents, does not mean they were conservative Justices. I point out that all three supported abortion rights not because I don't, but because that seems to be the litmus test for liberals. (Hint: I neither support nor oppose abortion, for my own reasons.) The other issues are just supplemental hot topic decisions.
But to claim that those evil conservatives are taking your property, when the dissenting Justices were Rehnquist, Scalia, Thomas, and O'Conner, is rewriting history to a disgusting extreme.
That seems like it would be better served by a 6-8 passenger electric GoCart type vehicle. Like the shuttles I've seen at some malls or hospitals. Just as you say, it keeps you from getting all sweaty or having sore feet. Or, especially at the hospital, gets old people inside before they collapse from exertion from walking a hundred feet.
Just get one small enough it can go where the pedicab can, and transport 3 to 4 times as many people at once, on a short route.
A few years ago, the bus drivers in Hawaii went on strike. The Bus was running at about half fleet, so people needed to find alternatives. Several people called the local radio stations, and said they planned to stop at a bus stop and give people rides as they went to work in the morning, and again with other stangers on the way home. The amount of trust and community spirit shown was quite remarkable.
Then the authorities claimed people would be ticketed, and possibly arrested, for stopping at a but stop and giving people rides. It is illegal to stop at a bus stop, unless you are the Bus. Of course, they just don't want the loss of revenue, even in times of difficulty.
I wonder if that's like the difference I felt when I rode a bicycle with with tires inflated to 120psi, instead of the regular tires at 20-40psi. I could coast for a hundred feet with a just a slight push, but I felt every bump and crevice in the pavement.
"That ethnic background meant my children were automatically stereotyped by the schools they attended. In particular one of them was misdiagnosed as having an English deficiency when in fact he had Asperger's.
This diagnosis was done on the basis of my wife's ethnic background despite the fact she speaks English better than 99.99+% of US citizens.
The harm done to my son from of this cannot be undone."
Do you mind my asking what irreparable harm was done?
The rallying cry of those who can't think for themselves, and have to run from an argument with their tail between their legs, while pretending they just won the fight by demolishing their opponent's fist with their face.
Sorry to break this to you, no matter what Rush Limbaugh thinks, the Ninth Circuit is still** part of the United States.
** Yes, Virginia - California, Washington, Hawaii and Oregon are included within the legal and political boundaries of the United States. We're not so sure of Alaska, but since the Canadians don't want it and you can't see Russia from there, it appears we're stuck with it.
Wow. You go out of your way to bash Rush and Palin, and show your ignorance of basic geography. I would leave this one alone, but some gullible people might actually believe you without fact-checking your statement, and I don't want them to be misinformed.
And that is the biggest problem. For all the problems you saw, you still hate "the other guy" more, and are willing to compromise your own conscience by voting for someone you know is so corrupt.
Why not take the principled stand and vote for a candidate that follows their own conscience?

The term 'double ententdre' itself sounds rather dirty. In a recursive sort of way.
...deflate like air out of a balloon, they really need to lighten the fuck up.
How dare you say a line like that so soon after those people died in Egypt, you insensitive clod?
(Oh crap, better add this before posting: Moderators, this is a joke.)

The right to a fair trial is also not speech. It isn't in the same plane of existence as speech.
How many of the other thirty rights in the Bill of Rights do you support? 1? 2? Only those you like? Only those from an odd-numbered Amendment?

I hope you realize the irony of your request that he register before posting.
I don't think he will.

My cat, who is not part of a well regulated militia, has sharp claws.
Does the 'well regulated militia' part of that sentence make a bit of difference to whether my cat has claws?

So, yeah, there are assholes everywhere.
Fuck your "Earth Hour", I will spend it standing in front of my fridge wasting energy.
That's a long time to rearrange the magnets on your fridge.
Hopefully, only his.

If you weighed less than 5 feet tall you would be ...
I'll just leave that one there...

OK, but I'm more impressed that while you list a lot of cars you have "1000 miles experience" with, Rickb928 listed 3 that totaled 700,000+ miles.
That must be one hell of a long commute.

Thank you for the reply, and I hope your son does well.
