  1. They did this in various Star Trek episodes at least thrice that I can think of, using holo-technology to host it.

    Yes, "letting" someone as in, the victim doesn't shoot or stab you, does often mean it could be assault. If there's no consent then a lack of forcefully violent protest isn't necessary.

  3. You realize that the Democrats used to praise him for his transparency and the things he revealed about corruption around the world? He's not after the Democrats, he's after one evil and corrupt person.

  4. And it is full of her.

  5. Not really. Like 99.9% of the defensive gun uses in the USA never involve pulling the trigger. Most of the time the criminal flees for their life.

  6. Not really, but whatever floats your boat.

  7. You do realize there are more than one country in the world, and those people can move from place to place. There are billions of people that can kill you. And there are many states in the USA where you either have to be rich, powerful, or white to get a concealed license.

  8. I'm curious if we still use any of the systems from the Minuteman-III from 1960 are still in use. I know they occasionally get upgrades, but I'd be willing to be some original stuff is still in use in some capacity.

  9. Shockingly, adding unnecessary things to common objects makes rich people pay more for them.

    Wait, pointing out further corruption to divert attention away from corruption isn't cool. Point out all the corruption you want, but don't try to pretend that corruption is okay because it may be rampant.

    I suppose you never followed the allegations of voter fraud that meet that definition in the primary locations. It happened all across the USA. The incidents that stood out most in my mind were the ones where they would vote, the Sanders supporters would leave (after the vote) and then for some weird reason the Clinton supporters would stick around, they'd throw out the vote and revote hours later. Somehow the vote would swing drastically from a clear Sanders win to a major Clinton victory.

    You've been desensitized to corruption. Please never act in any form of authority over another person.

    You can send your vote to 3rd party. Obviously if you supported Sanders you're not likely to support Trump. There's Jill Stein and Gary Johnson, who aren't even on the same plane of evil and corrupt as the top party nominees.

    If it weren't for the Russians, the DNC and the Clinton camp would have gotten away with voter fraud in the primary! Oh, no one cares. Nevermind.

  17. You're continuing to misuse the term. See original post.

  18. Email account holders were not users of the program. Email account holders were victims of an intentional intrusion that appears to violate constitutional law.

  19. No, there are billions. You must be terrified to leave the house considering how many hundreds of thousands of people carry concealed every day.

  20. Are we going to continue to move away from the definition of this word? If they designed a program to sift through all of the email they host then that is not hacking. Using non-prescriptive methods is hacking. If a group of software engineers professionally designed this, that is not hacking.

  21. What you're saying can be immediately countered with the fact that the places with prevalent gun ownership and fewer infringing laws, the shooting rate is tiny compared to locations where only criminals have access to carrying firearms, which places legal gun owners, and those who don't own guns, more at risk of gun crime. If you were to eliminate the gun crime statistics from the cities with the most infringing firearm laws, the USA drops to close to the bottom of the list worldwide.

    I'd argue that Jill Stein is less of a feminist than Bernie Sanders, as well as being less scientifically competent, but I agree mostly with what you said.

  23. Totally false. I'm egalitarian, and feminism falls within that fairly naturally.

    That sounds like you're buying into propaganda. Defensive gun usage is extremely common, and there have been an incredible number of mass shootings that never occurred, or were ended early by people carrying concealed. I do agree that people who are open carrying or brandishing needlessly could present those issues.

    That's ridiculous. Every time I go to the movie I have a revolver on me. If that one in a billion chance comes around that someone has intent to shoot up the place, you would be happy that a few people in the audience are carrying.
