Yes, lets us individual cases and build argument on biased emotions. That will solve everything. Idiot.
And your examples is fraught with the logical fallacy that she could have stopped them with a gun. That is a very broad assumption.
"Statistics show taking guns away causes an increase in violent crime... See Australia and England Statistics show that allowing for more lawful firearm posession (concealed carry) tends to reduce violent crime... See Florida, Texas etc."
OMG. You are an idiot. Florida and Texas has some of the HIGHEST rates.
Sadly, every place else that has done this country wide has had gun violence decrease, and no correlation between the removal of guns and more government violence in modern society.
But you keep spreading those lies so you can keep your penis extender.

Or maybe you think the founding fathers didn't know what the constitution meant when they where in congress and passing bills the explicitly show that is an incorrect out of context interpretation?
Clearly your interpretation handed to you by your republican masters is correct and the founding fathers were wrong.
wrong. Section 8: The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;
How is it not general welfare?
And lets no forget that some of our founding fathers went on to create a government health care program for some workers. I don't see how anyone can look at that and the say they didn't want the government to be able to do that.
I wish there was a way to make the people who use the word socialism actually learn what that word means.
Do you mean market socialist? economic socialists? do you actual mean Marxisms? independent socialist? Utopian socialists?
Do you mean state joint ownership of companies? Or do you just hear that work on Fox when the are spoon feeding you what to think and assume it = 'bad'
The pubs do thing that can be considered economic and market socialism. SO maybe you should start to think for yourself and read outside your echo chamber of stupid?
"Isn't it about time we learn to LIVE with nature, instead of trying to engineer it and screwing up?" no. We control fire, make beams of light, send people to space because we engineer things. Otherwise we would all be living in a cave.
"Over millions-of-years nature has reached a natural balance with its flow-of-rivers, " incorrect. Natures has not 'balance'. It's just a system. And it changes, and it respond according to the laws of physics. EVERYTHING changes the environment around it.

if we stopped produce CO2s, right this moment, it would be 100 years before a decline would begin. So considering ways to offset it's effects are not idiotic.
Yes, we need to reduce, a lot. Yes, having a way to scrub the atmosphere would be great.
I said long term. Oracle has developers the develop in a lot of things besides Java. How many of them used API's from outside Oracle? How many of them reused trivial code?

It only seems that way because you are pretty clueless about the scope of the project.
How do you run two emergency systems side by side? 911 systems include call center, lines, vehicular communication, radio frequency, every emergence personnel, training, data housing, real time access backing up. And only about 4500 other things.
911 systems are highly entrenched, custom systems.
"...only government contracts that do this regularly" this is completely false.
"I wonder, has anyone ever seen a post-mortem review of a government contract?" I have, many times.
" Does government ever even attempt to figure out where the inefficiencies lie and correct them or at least plan for them next round?" 'the government" well, we don't have a single governments, so that's not a useful term. The agencies who I have audited and reviewed certainly did that.
Now some facts: The vast majority(90%+) of government contracts are done on time, and on cost. Agencies of the government, as well as state governments have far less waste then corporate entities. 80% of corporate projects fail. Both those are verifiable with a trip to the library to get the government records. Good luck, it will take weeks to sift through them. The code I wrote to do it is proprietary, otherwise I would get you a copy of it and the data.
Never forget two things when talking about corporate and government projects: Corporations have a PR dept, and can keep their books to themselves. The control the channel. SO when something is great, you here about it, when it fails you never hear about it, when it's a blunder, it is quickly changed.
Government agencies have poepl one the outside alway trying to look in, even when they don't have the knowledge to evaluate what they see, the media only shows you failures, never success.
SO peoples perception is skewed greatly. This is also why I cringe whenever some puts 'business leader' as a qualification for an elected position. Well, one of the reason.
I sued to have the same perception, until I got involved with auditing varies large entities, public and private sectors. Man, after that I got a lot more confidence in out government, as a whole. I have pointed out multimillion dollar descrepencies to corporate CEOs, and they found it 'interesting' but didn't care too much.
More governments need to nail those bastard that over charge and don't meet spec. Too many people are afraid they will look bad, so the force a bad system out and don't take recourse.
Portlands former Mayor Katz come screaming to mind.
Long term speaking, its a win for Oracle. It's really only a matter of time before it would have bit them in the butt. There developers use APIs as well.

You can not have serious discussion when you LIE.
Of course looking tat the numbers have shown, over and over again, more guns = more violent crime.
It's so well documented, you should be embarrassed to bring it up. IT makes it look like you are grasping at straws.
We have the right to firearms, not the right to lie about firearms.
Wrong.
The numbers come from w32-w34 statistics which don't include suicide.
There is very specific and clearly spelled out metrics.
Example:
Firearm deaths:
99 00 01 02
Unintentional (W32–W34) 824 776 802 762
Suicide . . . . (X72–X74) 16,599 16,586 16,869 17,108
Clearly the are broken out.
http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr54/nvsr54_10.pdf
When I saw w23-w34 and you DON"T know what I am talking about, then you aren't qualified to have an opinion with any real weight behind it.
Also:
According to the CDC, a child dies every 3 days from an unintentional gun shot.
I'm assume when I do you will change your opinion and state a public apology?

Depends on the crap. You could create something with a life expectancy. Or something that's easier to collect and store then CO2

IF you have a 60 watt bulb, and you are charged 10 cents a Kw, that's 10 cents very 16 hours. How much do sensors cost?
OTOH, standing a little more on a sensor to simple use less energy, even at a high cost, then you should do it.
Because people don't like feeling they live in a cave.

wrong. Most government projects are on or below budget. Most are highly detailed in the specs.
It's nice you can spout off about something you know nothing about and continue to keep those old myths moving along.
