So you are advocating pulling the plug on quadripelegics, because they have no motor control? You people disgust me. She has full consciousness and ability to think. She can communicate by blinking. Why don't they just ask her?
If she has higher brain function, and from the summary it seems she has full higher brain function, pulling the plug without asking her would be murder.
Acttually I went to the article, the summary is pretty misleading. The carbon brakes have to rotate with the wheels. At 1000mph they are turning 10,000 rpm and failed under the stresses, When it's time to stop the car airbrakes are deployed which slow the car to 160mph when conventional disk brakes are employed. The carbon brakes would certainly be more effective from 160mph to 0mph, but can't withstand 10,000rpm.
It's funny that whenever someone points out what a terrible mistake a lot of people made voting for Obama, they always become a Republican. It's also strange that I can't seem to find anyone who voted for Obama in 2012, even among my reliably left-wing friends.
Does it just sit in there until someone lets it out? You're dumping enough energy to get a car up to 1000mph hour into a coil. That coil better be very large, and have a huge heatsink or you're going to have a fire.
Fuck you and your moral equivalency. This is now, and the Obama administration is doing it. You obviously voted for the guy, it's time for you to admit your mistake and call it for what it is.
I'm not sure I agree with some of the specifics you have described. I think you have nailed some of the broader themes. Some people so rigidly adhere to the concept of tolerance, that they are blind to the fact that they have become incredibly intolerant.
... that it's appropriate to persecute people for thought crimes, I've decided I couldn't care less about what they do. They just don't matter to me any more.
Really, where is this environmental destruction product they sell? They don't sell environmental destruction, they sell legal products, and follow regulations that your fucking EPA makes. I know progressives hate libertarians. Progressives can't call themselves liberal any more because really they are just authoritarian fascists. The Koch brothers just happen to be the Great Satan of the day, that progressives use to project all of their problems onto.
Al Gore's wealth is particularly delicious, considering CurrentTV was purchased with Middle Eastern oil money. Someone once said, "I'll believe we're in a crisis, when the people who say we're in a crisis, start acting like we're in a crisis." Screw every last one of them.
...unless we listen to our leader and all make sacrifices for the common good. If we don't the apocalypse will come and we will be cast into hell. Fuck that.
No. Where were they selling environmental destruction and who bought it. I don't care about your fucking progressinazi class warfare bullshit. I want to know when they were selling environmental destruction, and I want to know who bought it.
That's silly. But Homo Sapiens certainly did adapt to and survive through the wild temperature fluctuations and sea level changes during the last ice age.

No, not at all. How long have you been waiting to share those links?
No it's not. The slow clap is heartfelt and genuine. Haven't you seen Cool Runnings?

What is liberal about Obama? He is the least liberal President I can possibly think of.
And then they voted for him a second time.
They are called hostage takers and bomb throwers when they do that.
With bigger styrofoam greek columns?
That's why it makes sense to slash funding and revoke our consent to be governed.

In my area the local government has set up a franchise agreement that guarantees a monopoly. Is that the ISP's fault, commie?

I figured that's what you say. Can you give me an example of them selling environmental destruction? I'd also like to know who purchased it.
I saw that movie too.
Yeah, a 10' rise might be a problem. How about a .050" rise per year? Is that really a problem?
Will they be wiped out by the tidal wave when the sea levels rise?
