Those that are ACCURATELY portraying the nature of the legal finding or everyone else that dresses itself up as something entirely different.
Yeah, that didn't happen here. If you can't recognize spin, or even worse, want me to accept it doesn't exist when it aligns with your opinion, I feel bad for you cause you ain't got your shit straight.
As an American, I'm curious where you got the idea that Americans (and you didn't specify, so I must assume you meant all or a significant fraction thereof) don't believe the Constitution should be modified. We have an amendment process in place to do that very thing, which has been used several times throughout the years for some very important reasons.
I will say my personal opinion is that modifying the Constitution should not be done lightly. In that regard, the Constitution and I are in perfect agreement.
I don't see how it's logical to make the militia the subject of the clause "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed" when according to every related English rule of grammar I've learned, "the people" fulfills that role.
Then again, I'm not trying to read it in a way that bolsters my opinion.
It's not about fear. It's about the natural right to defend yourself.
The US isn't going to get rid of guns anytime soon, if ever. There are too many ways to get them into the country. Until there's a foolproof way to get them out of the hands of everyone, citizen, criminal, and cop alike, it's irresponsible to take them out of the hands of the most vulnerable subset of the population.
Your personal minimum requirements notwithstanding, you shot down an argument I didn't make. I never said Vista worked perfectly, nor did I allude to it. Congratulations on failing reading comprehension.
Hey, this is Slashdot. If you spent money developing a product which was then stolen, you're supposed to shrug your shoulders, realize you were stupid for believing in "intellectual property," then go right back to work on something else to give away.
The problem with memes being modded funny is that they aren't. The underlying problem is that, by and large, nerds have no sense of humor. Sure, they think they do, but they don't. That's part & parcel of being a nerd.
I curious how you've found that. Did you conduct a scientifically rigorous survey, or was this simply worthless self-selected biased anecdotal evidence designed to bolster your political opinions?
I find it amusing that people still perpetrate the fallacy that piracy is just a way to try the game out before a purchase is made. Sure, it sounds good, like the habit of calling pirated roms "backups," but it's transparently bullshit.
Are you sure you read the same 1984 I read? Cause pretty much nothing in there is real even now, aside from the paranoia you and others who think it is happening seem to exhibit.
The gnomes sneak into your bedroom while you sleep and rub the back of your ear with orange cheese powder, then sneak off. The best thing to do is not sleep until you see them.
That 20 year environmental impact study is just a way to funnel some money into well-connected consulting firms. Don't go mistaking government pork with actual useful work.

they're also all stupid and restricted to 14 year olds, or those who have a 14 year old mentality.

The right to keep and bear arms is in the constitution. The right to terminate pregnancy is not.
Simple facts for your simple mind.
Ah, spin, the first refuge of the mentally inferior.
Just to clarify, I mean both you and your parent poster.
You're only 5 years late with this criticism. You anti-Java trolls are catching up to the present!
I don't think that "most likely" is the right phrase. It's not like kids are killing each other in epic numbers, media sensationalism notwithstanding.
Yeah, it's so hard to not be rich and still be lazy. Those assholes on top expect you to work before they pay you! Unbelievable.
Forcible redistribution of wealth from the industrious to the indigent is the only equitable solution.
Is that little people as in leprechauns, little people as in midgets, or something else entirely?
Define your terms, you must.

Vista already does work well, the "funny" jokes around here notwithstanding.
Maybe you shouldn't get your information on operating systems from zealots who emotionally defend some one true way.
I curious how you've found that. Did you conduct a scientifically rigorous survey, or was this simply worthless self-selected biased anecdotal evidence designed to bolster your political opinions?
I know where I put my two bits.
Does your friend have any qualifications? Because I've never seen anything scientific explaining why HFCS is bad.
I don't consume it myself, but that's for other reasons.
Apparently the Liberal viewpoint is constructed around willful ignorance of anyone who doesn't wholeheartedly agree with it.
Does it matter? Does the fact that pirates don't intend to buy the game somehow give them the right to procure it for free?

It's never out of style to oppose the nanny-state. Only foolish hippies think the gov't should take care of everybody.
