Either the sellers' or the buyers cars will suffer from spontaneous combustion. And thus will this idea die.
And when they go to the police and say "My car was burned!" the police will reply with something close to a "hmmm. Ok. Did you see who did it? No? Well, tough luck."
Murder rates won't change anyone's mind. Those who are for gun control will think they are proof of their side while those who are against it will take them as precisely the reason to own a gun to protect oneself in a violent country.
Well, based on some current empirical definitions of "freedom", I'd say free will is: "The the power of acting without the constraint of necessity or fate, unless for reasons of national security shut up or you'll never again see the light of day."
in the eyes of doubters of science, this is taken literally and used to discredit science, time and time again.
Why write that shit? To the untrained eye it says "this just in: science WRONG again!".
Why the fuck should we care about the eyes of doubters of science?! Under no circumstance should we change our behavior to please those who refuse to think.
If someone believes science is wrong it's his problem, not ours.
Suppressing information to not disturb the flimsy grasp of reality makes no sense. Let our knowledge be seen, the successes and the mistakes, and let those who cover their eyes live in their puerile fantasies.
1-2g/kg. The range from 1 to 2 being dependant on total calorie intake; which is itself decided by calorie consumption, indirectly setting the optimal position between 1 and 2 by daily activity.
Care to explain how a revenue neutral shift in tax base changes who gets government assistance?
Of course:
1 - Tax Chinese items. -> Chinese items go up in price. 2 - Lower general tax with the benefits generated by (1) -> everyone has more money.
[However one must take into account that the money distributed by (2) is the same as the one generated by (1). Therefore]
3 - If an individual buys Chinese items for an exact value such as the tax (1) of those items equals the increase (2) of that individual's money, he ends just as rich as before both (1) and (2).
[However]
4 - If an individual buys more than those exact balance Chinese items, he'll be poorer, and if he buys less, he'll be richer. (as they'll pay for, respectively, a greater/smaller share of the the tax production while getting the same reduction)
[Also]
5 - Chinese items are cheaper than local items, otherwise the problem wouldn't exist in the first place. 6 - Poorer people will have a tendency to buy cheaper (both in price and quality) items because they are poor.
[In conclusion]
Poorer people will have a tendency to buy more Chinese items (6) and will thus become even poorer because of (4). Richer people will have no need to buy Chinese items (6) and will thus become even richer because of (4).
Of course they'd both be only microscopically richer or poorer, but it's the accumulation of microscopic differences that create the gigantic gap.
Simple; tax all goods on the amount of pollution used in their manufacture.
So that every american has either: - less things. - a higher salary.
Oh, but the money goes to the government, so you can lower general taxes! which gets:
- A little less money for those who must buy cheap Chinese products.
- A little more things for those who buy more expensive products.
I'm not sure. Even a few hospitalizations and the panic of having to run from a poisonous gas might be sufficient if accompanied with an anonymous message of "if bullying doesn't stop, the next attack will kill every single one of you."
Or we finally start get our heads out of our asses and accept that we have to do something against it.
...before the kids learn that bombs or poison are safer than guns.
What truly scares me is the progression. Soon we'll have a Columbine-like event but with chlorine, or an infected water supply, or a home made explosive device, or some other horror.
It starts before that. You must first suppress the knowledge of history by underfunding teaching institutions and manipulating curricula.
Only when the people are ignorant of their past can you pull such ridiculous capitalist dictatorships without opposition.
Ignorance is the one and only true enemy. Trying to convince the ignorant is a losing strategy, teaching the next generation is the only correct first step.

I remember having seen a dictionary English-Magyar, so by basic linguistics, Magyarok must be something referred to Hungarian or hungarians.
So, I'd guess it isn't "first post".
This ends in destruction of property.

But if outlaws are ostracized, only ostriches will have guns.

Abstract ideas can be thrilling too.
The silo wins the security battle through two things:
1) Physical security
2) Not being on the Internet
3) Armed guards with instructions to shoot on sight.
They are to security what rubber hoses are to cryptoanalysis.
There is no recommended daily intake for protein.

Fortunately, evolution has also given some humans the following:
- A functioning brain.
Well yeah. You know, in case he needs water, RIGHT NOW.
Someone must find out how to cheaply put lead in orbit.
I propose catapults.
Or Hitachi elevators.
That's what we give away in foreign aid to Pakistan every year.
...Is he implying America is giving that aid from the kindness of their heart?
I assume you live somewhere where the police can get to the scene the usual several minutes later and find "a random guy who sprayed my toy".
What's even more amazing is that the police in the place where you must live, actually care.

So, the classic win-win-win-lose a kidney situation.
*: the third win is either for the happy recipient of a healthy kidney or the considerably less happy customer who tastes the new "meat doughnut".
China? Tempests on the other side of the world?
It's clearly a quantum weather butterfly
That's two out of three, you'll have to be more specific.
Or we finally start get our heads out of our asses and accept that we have to do something against it.
...before the kids learn that bombs or poison are safer than guns.
What truly scares me is the progression. Soon we'll have a Columbine-like event but with chlorine, or an infected water supply, or a home made explosive device, or some other horror.
He'll either:
- Go Columbine.
- Learn to cope.
- Pay an illegal immigrant $100 to stab the bully in the kidney.
The third option is the safest one as long as he's smart enough to find a way to not leave a trace about the contract.
I'm not sure which option produces a better society as a result.

Well... there are "technical problems." and there are "TECHNICAL PROBLEMS!!!! RUN! RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!"
So if you are a white straight male, or in some cases a male period, you are not a "protected class"
Think of the male periods!
