Apparently, since the governor vetoed the bill that would have allowed/required doctors to do so, it is not their fucking job to detain their patients in this way. Other states surely have different rules, but we are not talking about those states here.
It's funny you mention I learn the word jurisprudence, since it obviously is outside your ken.
Theresa is bipolar. She's went off her meds around New Year's Eve. She got so bad and refused any kind of treatment or to take her meds,
What did the sister do that the husband couldn't have done at the start? He surely knew his wife had this condition, but he did nothing except file for divorce?
And for the first week, 602's family will have water. After that, they will be standing in line. Just as I said. In addition, I didn't say that the water supply won't be air dropped in.
You grant yourself too much credit if you think your post is LOL worthy.
At least one 5 gallon jug per person. We have 10 gallons per person, which is pathetically inadequate.
Wait, what? If you should have a 5 gallon jug per person, how is 10 gallons per person "pathetically inadequate"? Isn't that twice as much as the minimum need?
I read it to mean that the very minimum to survive a few days is 5 gallons per person. But if the fault goes, and everything goes to shit, even double that amount is not enough because his family will run through it before the nightmare is over. Then they'll be standing in those lines with everyone else, trying to get a koolaid pitcher filled from a FEMA water truck.
Doing a google image search for Snarf, I don't see the problem... Snarf speaks proper english
Proper English? Try reading the text that goes with it in the strips. Jar-jar is a dumbed down and more annoying Snarf.
I just read through a few pages of Snarf, and don't see him speaking like JarJar. Other than a few common 'alternative pronunciations' just as "dat" for "that", he is using complete sentences, refers to himself as "I", and generally talking as well as any of the other characters he's with. Also his actions and movements are normal, rather than clumsy like with JarJar.
I think Larry Elmore saw more in JarJar that wasn't there
I saw it too which is why I hit the net at the time to see what Elmore thought of his character being ripped off - "didn't even get a mention" is what I remember. Now it's buried somewhere under a million google items with those keywords, but just read the strip to see the very blatant ripoff.
Sorry, I just don't see it beyond a passing similarty.
Wait a sec - the developed world is to the left of the US center? How does that relate to the US left being left or right?
As far as "all modern societies agree that people can own things", that only goes so far for the left. You can own one small parcel, but you better not own a second house that you charge someone rent to live in. Or you own the land, but can't do anything with it that isn't approved by the government. If you own a factory, you better make sure the employees have a say in how it runs, and a share of the profit over and above their wages. I have seen all these arguments by people on the left, especially those who are from Europe.
That doesn't fit my definition of ownership, that is more akin to being allowed to call it yours as long as you don't get uppity. Do you remember the case of eminent domain in New London, Connecticut? The liberal side of the Supreme Court decided people can lose their property to benefit the local tax office. That is how I consider the left's view "that people can own things".
Besides the single point of ownership, what of the other primary Democrat/liberal policies? Here are the agenda points of the American left: Abortion Unions, public and private sector Regulation of industry and banking Environmental regulation National health care (Obamacare being a first stage) College tuition support / Free college Gay marriage Equal rights / Non-discrimination Prison reform / Abolish death penalty Drug legalization Gun control
Which of those are to the right of the dividing line? What position do the Democrats/liberals have that is on the right side of that line, other than ownership of property?
This isn't the first, or even the tenth, time I've asked this question. And the only answer I get back (if any at all) is property ownership and control. Every other issue the Democrats have is either left, far left, or neutral (such as 'support our troops').
No, they're racists because they exhibit racist behaviors. Just like we know you're a troll because of the things you say.
I'm a troll because I point out hypocrisy in what people say? Or their complete intolerance for opposing viewpoints? People know when I make trolling posts, and this isn't one of them.
And his point was not that "OMG, These people are all racists!!!". His point was "I thought these people were the same as me, based on prior posts we have all made on other topics. Now I see there is one aspect of one issue (i.e. an alien in a science fiction movie) where we don't have the groupthink I thought we had. I pity these ignorant former compatriots."
Based on this one topic, he completely disavows "people who I have considered my peers."
Every time I ask what sets the American left to the right side of the mysterious dividing line, that is the only thing that is pointed to - right wingers believe people can own property and have control of it, rather than communal ownership or control. Being left wing means at the very least believing in communal control of capital, no other topic or agenda qualifies.
Oh yes. They can't possibly still be your peers, because they have a different outlook on one issue. Now that you realize they don't all think exactly like you, they are ignorant racists and sexists.
Why don't you make that your signature? Then everyone will know where they stand with you.
Doing a google image search for Snarf, I don't see the problem. Other than having a long snout and long ears, the two are nothing alike. Snarf speaks proper english, JarJar spoke a Gungan dialect of bad english. Snarf stands and walks like a human, JarJar stands and walks like a marionette (very loose-jointed). Even the snout and ears are done in completely different styles, so only their size is similar. And overall Snarf is shorter than those around him, while JarJar was quite tall.
I think Larry Elmore saw more in JarJar that wasn't there.
It's called compromise, not hypocrisy. That's common to all negotiations. You not supposed to pretend to like what you're voting for; you just have to say to yourself, "OK, I'm not getting what I want here, but I am getting what I want over there." Of course, compromise is impossible when one side absolutely refuses to compromise.
Hypocrisy is where you claim to represent "family values," while sleeping with someone other than your wife, or soliciting men in the men's room.
The Republicans here don't under stand compromise; just look at how they've spent the past 8 years chanting "NO!".
While giving President Obama everything he asks for. You are right, that isn't compromise, it's fellatio.

Wow. Way to take a joke far too seriously.
So my point that a "raving lunatic" can be detained is wrong because the police can detain him.
Thanks for the clarification.
Do Americans not believe an individual has sovereignty of their own body, a...
Only if the person has a uterus that is supporting an unwanted resident at the moment.

I believe that counts as a danger to yourself. Please have a seat in this room, while I make a completely unrelated phone call to the police station.
Do you really think the best way to prevent a random act of violence is to let doctors arrest their patients who possibly are having issues?
I'm sure "raving lunatic"s can already be detained, at the least for disturbing the peace.
That what sticking to your religion and your guns gets you in today's world.
On the upside, you won't have Bruce Tranny Jenner living next to you.
Food, on the other hand, would be very challenging unless it happened when the commuters were away at their jobs.
What? You don't want your dogs to eat fresh meat?

This one is the winner so far. :^)

Well, they reboot all the comic book stories every time there's a new actor or director. Why not Star Trek?
I loled.

Saying "It's Inuit" is like saying all Native Americans are Sioux.

You obviously missed the point where he said:
i saw the movie the day it came out and i thought it was a waste of 5 bucks

I see your definition of 'right winger' is 'agrees that people can own property', and anyone who has that belief cannot be left-wing.
