How could they avoid selling to him legally, unless they expect to be able to raise the full amount owed to him for the legal judgment by selling to someone else?
It is a problem when the asset itself is the future result of a lawsuit against the person buying it.
That makes for a good statement but the ACLU *never* supported the second amendment and did not do so before the NRA did which started in the 1970s. The ACLU has actually attacked the second amendment and still does. Go read their position on it.
The frequency at which a law is violated has no bearing on whether something is illegal or not.
The government regularly uses the "common use" argument to keep things not in "common use" illegal and then uses that as a justification to keep those things illegal.
About the only useful "control" missing from my automatic transmission compared with a manual is that the automatic will not let you start off in 2nd.
You also cannot push start with a dead battery or starter if you have an automatic transmission. Or push start anything made by GMC whether it has a manual transmission or not but that is a different issue.
Manual transmissions used to have advantages over automatic for fuel economy and performance. Those days are over. At this point, manual transmissions are for hipsters, and cars with manual transmissions should really only come with one of these as its entertainment system.
Now they just have the advantage of better reliability and lower total cost of ownership. Who needs these things?
How about having to prove you are responsible and stable enough to own a gun? People are required to prove they can drive safely before being allowed to get behind the wheel without an instructor.
That means you are being immediately denied a right which is a violation of due process. Some states do exactly that to one degree or another and it has not helped them.
Our criminal justice system has become so broken going after non-violent offenders, that actual threats, which should be treated as a crime, just get ignored.
I have been working my way through the various primary sources here and not been able to refute it yet.
Because that is the way the world works. We can't have nice things because people can't be trusted with them. And in this case, a big part of the problem is that gun nuts refuse to police their own.
What more do you want? Multiple people were aware of this guy and reported him to multiple levels of government which all did nothing. Did not follow proper procedure? Bullshit. The subordinates did exactly what they thought their superiors wanted.
Knowing the danger, civilian gun owners could have protected the school but that was illegal under statute and the sheriff sure would have arrested people to stop that unlike actually intervening which is dangerous. It is much safer to confront and arrest a non-violent citizen than a mass murderer.
To be fair, I wouldn't want to confront someone who has a rifle with only a handgun either; that is a good way to commit suicide. But I also would not accept the responsibility if I could only use a handgun. Handguns are for use until you can get a more effective weapon. The "school resource officer" and the sheriff's deputies were never intended to provide protection to others; they were not equipped for it.
You know the complaint about the missing "moderate muslims" condemning stuff whenever there's an Islamist terrorist attack? Well this was a white guy gun owner terrorist attack and "moderate" white guy gun owners are nowhere to be seen.
The white guy gun owners have been crowing on this subject for years or actually decades. Some communities got the message and actually protect their schools or at least allow them to be protected unlike the state of Florida where it is illegal. How much would you speak out with various organizations including half of Congress and most of the news media calling for you to be killed? Moderate white guy gun owners generally lack expensive private security and nobody is going to enforce hate speech laws when directed at them.
I don't see the "moderate" Christians condemning people who attack abortion clinics and doctors and they are not even threatened.
You missed out the part about being "part of a well-regulated militia".
It's funny how rarely people who espouse the 2nd amendment (not necessarily you) include that.
Since it does not say "part of a well regulated militia", that should be ignored.
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
The meaning of the subordinate clause is that arms suitable for a militia are protected. Somehow I do not see that being enforced anytime soon and not since 1934 where U.S. versus Miller said exactly that which just goes to show what kind of court decision you can get if you control both sides and the court system. If the people lack arms, then there is no militia.
What I would prefer is a plug-in or other permanent configuration which blocks Getty (and Pinterest) from my search results. Their stock photos just pollute the search results.
No the triumph of form over function is to blame. The issue in the name of meeting a certain style and aesthetic, Apple has built a building that is difficult to navigate for the humans its designed to house.
At least they are consistent in applying form over function in their products.
A low capacity, low power, handgun is perfectly sufficient for self-defence. A single shot rifle is perfectly adequate for hunting.
The 2nd Amendment says nothing about self defense or hunting. It refers to arms suitable for a militia; the subordinate clause means something and that is it. Even U.S. versus Miller said this.
At a minimum, that includes any arms that law enforcement uses which now includes short barreled shotguns, short barreled rifles, machine guns, destructive devices, etc. Many would argue that it includes arms that a soldier would carry but because of the militarization of law enforcement, that is now a distinction without a difference.
If you were walking down the street and saw a guy wearing a gas mask wouldn't you wonder what he knew that you didn't? That's how I'm treated when wearing a sterile surgical mask on the street here in the US. The mask is to protect everybody, but assumptions are more powerful than rational thought.
I have no doubt wearing a mask in public would provide probable cause or reasonable suspicion to law enforcement. No thanks, I have already been shot enough.
Forget that. If work policy encourages me to come in while sick, then I am going to infect as many people as possible because that is not considered a negative externality. If it was, then they would not encourage it. If work does not care, then I do not care either. Why should I have a different standard than work?
They made those planes out of wood because they didn't have enough metal.
Lack of aluminum was an issue but the reason the all wood Mosquito was economical was that Britain had a lot of underutilized wood craftsmen during the war. Building the Mosquito would impact neither the existing workforce working with aluminum or require aluminum. Without all of the underemployed furniture makers and musical instrument makers, it would not have been economical.
As I am not an expert on Navy stuff, I'm not sure what the difference is between a cruiser and a modern destroyer. Looks like the cruiser is slightly bigger, has about a third more crew, and has slightly more VLS cells. To my uneducated eye it looks like it would work to just make more Arleigh-Burke destroyers to replace Ticonderogas. If I'm wrong, please set me right.
Destroyers sure have come a long way since the days they were called "tin cans"!
The designation for cruiser is CA which means armored cruiser. In the past destroyers were not armored but cruisers were. These days the difference between a destroyer and cruiser is just the name.
It seems to me the best way for Intel to pevent Meltdown exploits is by disabling Intel's TSX functionality (which I believe microcode can do), along with OS logic to terminate processes which generate an excessive number of protection exceptions for the same portion of code. The TSX change will force an exploit to throw exceptions for the indirect-memory access loop that probes for data values, and the OS change will then identify processes incurring these repeated exceptions inside a single block of code and then terminating it.
Since the protection exceptions only happen in the speculated code which is never retired, they are not protection exceptions and the OS knows nothing about them.
Because a Tesla and other (but not all) Electric vehicles have battery conditioning technology that is not economical or practical (with regards to weight) on mobile devices.
What? Battery conditioning in this case amounts to charge balancing which is impossible when the battery only has a one cell in series; there is literally nothing to balance. Controlling battery charge and discharge voltage and current is completely feasible and done on mobile devices or at least good ones. You do not for instance want to over or under charge the battery.
Sexual reproduction is critical for spreading favorable genes like resistance to predators, poisons, etc.
No, there are quite a few pathenogenetic species. Sexual reproduction allows for better mixing of genes, but it's hardly critical for spreading them. These animals will simply operate more like a bacteria. Those that survive will replace those that did not, instead of spreading the resistant genome through the population.
Sexual reproduction has an enormous cost in that only half of the population can bare children so it must have a huge advantage to make up for that.
No one is used to a 0-10 scale because thatÃ(TM)s 11 units which is highly irregular. Same with a 0-5, being a very strange six units to humans since it looks, to the layman, like there are five units.
On the contrary. Your hand can display 0-5 fingers. Two hands can display 0-10. It's the most natural system in the world. You don't have 11 fingers (unless you killed Montoya Senior).
I count on my fingers in gray code you insensitive clod!
You want to help fix all this? Register as Democrat, encourage everyone you can to do the same, and vote Democrat at every opportunity. The socio-political situation in this country is way out of balance, and it's time we started restoring that balance before it's too late.
Do you mean so that the Democrats can ignore my support for Bernie Sanders and take me for granted? No thanks.

Great, more stuff to pay for and more stuff to break. As a bonus, DRM can be included to prevent third party repairs.
