What a marvellous idea. You are about to lose and fate of country population is going to depend on victorious army goodwill (or at least basic decency). That's just PERFECT moment for last, monumental fuck you.
Problem is that after enough time in solitary, they are pretty much insane. Who knows what they do? And if seriously say that it *should* be horrible because it reduces crime, then why stop at putting someone in cage for years? There are many old and proven methods that do the same more quickly - standard beatings, rape, waterboarding, ripping off fingernails, electric current applied to genitals, etc. Hell, let's give everybody week long 'preview' at age of 10 - then we will have perfect crime-free society.
"But that's all right, you use public transport so this make your life 'sustainable' and gives you right to bitch about how *others* abuse the planet."
Having a child is THE most enviromentally damaging thing any one person can do because that child will on average live for 60 years. I currently have none and don't plan on having any , so yes, it doesn't give me the fucking right to bitch about feckless morons having 10 kids then whining that they can't feed them.
Here goes another strawman devastated by might of your logic. It is not about you non-existent kid - it is about YOUR lifestyle depleting oil, rare earth metals and multitude of other irreplaceable resources. So either go live in cave eating only what you can raise (without depleting soil of course) or stop embarrassing yourself with your white rich kid understanding of 'sustainability'.
Also how much child is environmentally damaging varies - you can be sure that 10 kids born to some forgotten tribe in Amazonian jungle are much less damaging than your single person.
"We will change when we need to change. I see it as better argument than your pathetic hypocrisy."
Nothing hypocritical about my argument whereas yours is nothing but lame vague on a wing and a prayer hand waving.
Let me use smaller words then. You are depleting planet resources. You are bitching about others doing the same. That's hypocrisy.
You say we can change , we can cope , blah fucking blah , well tell me - how come there are still 4 MILLION people homeless after typhoon haiyan in indonesia if we such a resilient species? We seem to be pretty bloody useless at coping with natural disasters frankly.
Do you expect them to become 4 million corpses tomorrow? If not, they are coping and they proved to be quite resilient. In time they will build back.
"while using your computer, living in nice apartment, driving a car and enjoying modern medicin"
Sure, I use modern tech , but I use public transport and I don't have 10 kids. There's something called sustainability.
Ooh, you use public transport so it is all right. That minuscule reduction in somehow balances all resources spent to to build your house, your computer and million other modern conveniences that you have no problem accepting. But that's all right, you use public transport so this make your life 'sustainable' and gives you right to bitch about how *others* abuse the planet.
"We are quite adaptable species, when environment changes we will adapt again."
Oh dear, is the old hand waving "it'll be alright in the end, we don't need to worry or change" argument really all you've got?
We will change when we need to change. I see it as better argument than your pathetic hypocrisy.
At what cost? Loss of wild habitats, sterile monocultures , pesticide poisoning of what little wildlife is left, fertilizer runoff causing o2 depletion in the rivers, soil erosion due to constant tilling, huge CO2 footprint due to fossil fuels required to produce agrichemicals and machinery to work the land and so on and on and on.
And how exactly does it contradict simple fact that food availability does not go down?
The methods of 300 years ago had survived for millenia. The way we've abused the planet in the last century we'll do well to be able to maintain this production for the next 100 years, never mind 1000.
Oh yes, lament about 'good old days' and abuse of planet while using your computer, living in nice apartment, driving a car and enjoying modern medicine. We are quite adaptable species, when environment changes we will adapt again.
How about... not ? I can manage some empathy for people starving without their fault (for example war refugees). I will spare none for idiots who breed like rabbits and expect others to feed their spawn.
If you donate your sperm to woman to have a child you should better be sure that she can support the child by herself, if not you should not have provided it in the first place.
And how do you go about that? If woman has means to support child by herself today it does not mean it will not change in 5 years. Remember, we are talking about USA, where illness can financially ruin you no matter if you have insurance or not.
Actually it makes a lot of sense from government standpoint to force them to collect data as soon as possible. If you buy neo900 *because* it promises no tracking then there is much higher than average probability that it would be useful to track you.
The same with various anonymizing proxies and 'secure' mail services - most of them are probably honeypots.
Dude, if you think that having separate driving license, passport and insurance number makes you somehow harder to track, then you are completely delusional.
Charge him with genocide as well. It is well known that hackers can cause nuclear war by whistling to a pay phone and it wa just matter of time until he did it.
I am not Christian, but I read the bible. Old Testament is pretty much one story after another of God's vindictiveness and cruelty (sometimes even genocide for extra fun). Besides no matter how much you bend logic out of shape, you cannot reconcile idea of God being all-powerful, benevolent and things earthquake killing hundreds of children. Either he does not exist or he does sit there dishing out pain and laughing his ass off. Or maybe (considering that history is written by victors) it was who Satan won, took a title of "God" and is in the charge of everything.
I am not American and I seriously had no idea it got this bad there. I travelled a little (Europe, Asia including China, Canada), but I have never been searched yet. Even in airports - just had to go through metal detector. Sorry, but how deluded those commenters saing that USA is more free than most countries are?

And what other chance Iran has to avoid US invasion? It is coming sooner or later.
Good joke. Complaining about prison staff is about fastest way back to solitary.

Efficiency goes up as well. Today 10 farmers or 10 hectares can produce much more food than it could 300 years ago.
I just switched to playing artillery. While not so much fun as zooming around in a light tank, smiting unrighteous from above has appeal of its own.

That's perfect use case for GUIDs! From now on, you will be known as b91c9121-0a17-4b26-a09d-d5980eb532db .

Not to mention that DVDs (even with player included), magazines, etc. are much cheaper than bombs.
What's there left to discuss? If you want who is moon's owner, just check whose flag is planted on it.
... and they are not going to use it for this kind of case.
YES.

Oh poor oppressed dears. Don't mock my invisible friend or I will blow up myself and 100 other people! And it will be all _your_ fault!
How come? It was God's will that you became ill. Who are you to go against it? You will burn in hell for that.
What property holders do with all those cows that court towed to them? Making hamburgers as side business?
