    Kelo v New London.

    You can thank Kelo v New London and our so called liberal Supreme Court justices Stevens, Kennedy, Souter, Ginsburg, and Breyer for this. At least that's the best I can come up with.

    No. The 2A clearly states that "the people" shall have the right to bear arms. They could have said militia, but didn't.

    Why should I go to college for CS, if I know I will have to compete with some low-paid dude from China? I can't pay back my $80K in student loans that way.

    Yes, and then American engineers won't have to compete with low-paid H1B's. It's about time we have a meaningful increase in median income.

    Sure, the industrial revolution created a great need for labor. People legally immigrated from all over the world. Now, we have no great economic revolution. There is no great need for labor. And people are illegally entering the country by the thousands. There are millions here. We ignore the law, and let them work illegally. And now we are considering increasing the amount of legal immigrants, because supposedly there is some great need for labor. Really? Let's get the employment ratio back up to 70% or so, and then we can talk about it. Immigration policy is designed to control the entry of immigrants, it's time we started treating that way.

    No, actually some American schools are bad at teaching math. We still have plenty of math geniuses who were home schooled or managed to escape the public system.

    My point is that if Aereo is correct and the SC is wrong, then Dish might not need broadcast licenses. Moot at this point.

    I never liked that saying, because a point in time is infinitely brief.

    I agree with some of your points. Aereo differs from Dish Network in that every customer is served from a unique streamed file. The files are also created when the customer demands it rather than being served from a common stored file like you would see in on demand service with the cable company.

    If your Dish Network receiver requires a decryption key card, how is that publicly transmitting?

    No, because America has long held it acceptable to bomb "military and economic" targets. Guess what the Pentagon and the WTC are? Guess what makes makes those who died on that day?

    Sorry, but that's bullshit. When was the last time the US targeted an economic target with bombing and timing to maximize human casualties?

    Go back to Berkeley. I will agree with you that the US is far more authoritarian than it was just 6 years ago. I'm sure you helped make it that way.

    That's just silly. I prefer to not make stuff up, when I'm accusing the government of executing Americans without trial. You can put your faith in the Washington post, but in my experience, that is not wise.

    No. The Washington Post said the CIA knew he was in the car. Other new agencies and the CIA said they did not know he was in the car. Nevertheless, he was not the target.
