There was a woman, several years ago who shot the man accused of molesting her son, while he was being tried, in the courtroom at that. If someone is a diagnosed pedophile, there is only one sure fired way to make sure they never do it again, a bullet through the head, or a more humane method if that is your preference. Note that I am speaking of pedophiles, not a 19 year old fucking a 16 year old. They would jerk off to childrens' clothing ads and try and watch TV shows with kids in them when I was incarcerated. They would cut out pictures of kids out of magazines and newspapers and make jerk off books by gluing the pictures inside of a magazine. We'd beat them down, the guards would beat them down, and they would not stop, could not stop more likely. They would go to a sex offenders program (I was a peer counselor in the substance abuse programs while incarcerated and they tried to train us to be "peer counselors" for that little experiment. I am proud to say none of us managed to make it through the training)and "graduate" get promoted to a lower level of custody, get paroled, and would be back in within a year. It is bad to say that the death penalty is the only way to stop them, but it is. They can no longer (no matter if it is nurture or nature)change their sexual orientation towards children than you can change your sexual orientation towards . And they exhibit a lack of control in acting out. If they did not, no one would ever know they were a pedophile. Unfortunately by the time they ID a juvenile pedophile, they have usually offended against at least 8 other children. And why yes, I have to learn about these things because I am currently doing my internship for the NCDOC to become a LCAS.
Very poor moderation fellow. Although cutting off the offenders testicles and even penis would not stop a true pedophile. They would just offend using objects. Two of my professors when I was going for my LPC had experience with working with juvenile and adult sex offenders. One was blunt and said there was no cure. The one who did mostly juvenile offenders would say they had some success, and that some clients left and did not re-offend within the 5 year window they followed up in. She never would say they could not be cured. But when I pressed her the last day of class (after the finals had been graded and recorded) and asked her if she would let her grandson hang out with one of the ones who did not re-offend, she snapped out "No!", before trying to backpedal and hem and haw. There is a cure for pedophilia, but most people are squeamish about it. That one uneducated, and country woman down in Tx knew what it was, and administered it quite well, except for missing with the first shot. The others all went right home though.
I have a friend who went to prison for armed robbery and a 2cd degree sex offense. He made the agent at an insurance company give him the cash, then had her go into the bathroom, disrobe and throw her clothes outside the bathroom door. He did not look, touch or molest her in anyway. They sentenced him to 14 years, which he did 6.5 years and got out. He has been on the sexual offenders list now for over 8 years, and has another 12 to go before he can even petition to be taken off. He is not allowed to pick or drop his son or daughter off at daycare, or school. Not allowed to attend school functions. Can't watch his son play t-ball. And can't get a decent job that does not involve backbreaking labor, when he has the educational credits to graduate and get a CPA if he went back to college for 2 semesters. Oops, can't go to college because all the ones around here have daycare centers on campus, which means he is not allowed on school grounds. Makes me glad I just robbed, stole and shot people, along with slinging drugs, guns and explosives. Because once I got off federal and state parole, I can go anywhere and do anything just about. And what I can not do is because of peoples' attitudes, not statutorily defined.
Sort of silly saying you work over 40 hours therefore you should be allowed to steal from the company; by doing personal business while being paid to work. I have employees, and I do understand them using the laptop to check their emails, or stopping by the bank during the day. But both of those activities are something I allow, not something I am required to permit. And my techs work over 40 hours, usually closer to 60, at least 9 months out of the year. Guess what, I have to pay them for those hours. They are not doing it out of kindness, or because they love the job. They do it because they get compensated for their work. Get out of the office and put in a few 14-18 hour days working in a -30deg F freezer, trying to fix a TXV while wearing a full arctic suit, or spending 8 plus hours on a black rubber roof on a 100 deg F day working on replacing a refrigeration system. Then you can complain about working over 40 hours. Until then, what you do is not "work", it is employment which involves mostly sitting on your ass.
IANAL, but if she wrote a snail mail letter, used her stamp and her envelope, with her pen and her paper, on her time, and then brought it into work and stuck it in the outgoing mail tray, would we be having this conversation or law suit? The law is pretty clear about opening mail not addressed to you, with very few exceptions. All this ruling does, IMNSHO, is extend some of the same privacy that is protected by law for pen and paper letters into the digital medium. I agree however, she was a stupid cunt for using a company computer to send letters to her lawyer about her complaints about the company.
I use FB under a false name. Privacy settings at the highest and auto-block all apps. And I only use it to keep in contact with friends. You know, people who I am in contact with regularly, know their birthdays, am concerned at some level about their well-being and happiness,have their email nd phone numbers in my phone and with the exception of three people, I know where they all live specifically. (2 because they have moved to other states and I have not been to their new homes, and one because she is a girl who goes to my college with who I have never spoken to in person, or on the phone, but we have been chatting and talking via text and FB for over three years now lol.)
No mod points, but insightful remark. They are already gaming the results. Pre-screening a movie for a few selected audiences in a few cities, with the audience being awarded seats via a contest. Give them a goody bag and do some slick crowd rousing hype before the movie to get them in a good mood. At that point unless the movie is a total bag of crap, you will have 300-500 people times 2 shows, times 10 cities to tweet and otherwise talk about how great the movie was. Roughly 8000 people who will probably tell at least 20 others. Helluva a word of mouth marketing campaign.
Duh. There is child porn on drive. Drive is the framed person's possession. You faked the date to show it was downloaded when suspect was at home, which is trivial as you can see he was home on "x" day and make the date/time match that. America, we don't have cameras at every phone booth and street corner. And there is child porn on computer. Grand slam conviction of a child molester. What DA is going to spend any time trying to discredit anonymous tip, and what jury is going to believe Mr.Computer Expert witness for the defense, when the cops' expert witness says it was the perp's, and the DA has splashed horrible pictures of children being violated sexually? Because no one with any sense is going to frame with a naked picture of a kid. They will use the hardest and most shocking crap they can find. This is America, innocent until proven guilty, unless it is child porn, and in that case, bend over and get ready for the reaming.
Not when the children are involved. A mere phone call, anonymously made in NC, is enough to get child welfare/SS, and/or the police knee deep into your ass, oops, life, if the phone call alleges child porn/sexual abuse. Unless of course it is a catholic priest being reported. As a licensed counselor you get to make a judgment call about a client threatening violence upon another person or suicide, but any mention of sexual exploitation/abuse of a child, even if it was 50 years ago, is a mandated report. Even if it is a 90 year old man saying when he was 20 years old he had sex with a 16 year old girl, who he later married and stayed with until she died at 75.
same thing goes for idiot mods who mark it troll. You disagreeing because of your liberal white guilt and inability to say what you think does not make my comments trollish. Too bad you lack the balls to speak the truth in public, instead of quietly amongst your friends, after carefully checking to make sure you don't "offend" anyone nearby. Everyone hates a coward, even cowards scared to speak their minds.
I love it when idiot mods choose to call an honestly held and true opinion "flamebait". Spend 15 years locked up with niggers and spics and white trash and see what your beliefs are then fucktard. Niggers, in all their varieties, are useless and should be shot on sight. And that includes rice niggers, sand niggers, dotted niggers, and taco niggers.
who cares? it ain't like they are human. fuck them and their slant eyed monkey cousins north of them. Just think, if all the chinese and all the dot on the head indians died, we would drastically reduce the burden on the planet and make our economy recover. If the monkeys in africa would go too, the world would be just about perfect. I for one am sick of allowing niggers, slants,sand niggers and dots to be included in the human race. They ain't white, then they are animals and should be culled, or made extinct.
I just don't use any browser. I refuse to use one that is not 110% secure. Plus it saves me tons of money by not having to pay for internet connection. When I really need to cruise the web, I just plug in the brainstem actualizer and use an avatar to swim through a virtual reality version of the net. And I fight off viruses and malware using a lightsaber. Ya'll really need to come to the real geek heaven.
Freedom, Force, with no RPG aspect, does allow virtual interaction with the entire world.The sequel was even better about allowing your superhero to destroy the world using his powers, cars or anything else.
I always look at character development as different than character skills/powers. My character might be uber-powerful or a lowly grunt struggling to kill a 1st level mob, but he is who he is, be it an asshole or a goody-two shoes. Hell in WoW, you can't even give your toon a last name, much less any type of back story, or reasons why he is out slaying beasties and saving the world. And with no real impact on the game world it is even harder. Implementing player built housing, stores, awarding or selling land grants and estates, titles and special honors is one way to help with a RPG setting and persistent world. Having you capped toon complete a long epic quest chain, and have him named Baron, and given a small estate not only gives the toon a place in the world, it allows further game play with such activities as bandits raiding his lands, monsters, etc. Most of the time the estate should give a certain amount of wealth, but when the drought comes followed by the hailstorm, then maybe it costs wealth to repair the serfs' houses and feed them so they can produce next season. The time I spent running the Starving Wolf Tavern in UO was some of the most fun I have had in MMORPG. Never made any money at it, but damn if me and the regulars did not have a blast hanging out and talking junk. It made the world seem more "real" when I'd leave my tavern, walk to my house and log off inside it. It gave me a sense of ownership in the game that WoW lacks.
Eh, if jumping out of a jetliner into a hole as deep as the Marinas Trench would be considered going downhill, then yes it has. WoW lacks any RPG elements, no character customization, and despite fanbois, no real choices with talents or weapons. You can assign your talents how ever you like, but unless you are using the cookie cutter spec of the month, no raids or runs for you! And if you grab 50 80 level of 1 race, off 50 realms, the chances are that if they have helmets on 49 of them will be indistinguishable from each other by looks. Don't get me wrong, I play, 3 accounts, multiple 80s across all accounts and several servers. But other than my 2 raiding 80s for my guild, and farming with the others, I don't touch them. Am leveling alts on a PvP server on Alliance side where horde has a 30:1 advantage of numbers. Lol, more Belfs than total Alliance toons on the server. Friday nights at 8pm server time with 38 Allies on line. If anyone would (note not could) combine WoW's gameplay and graphics(yeah cartoony but nice) with UO ideas about professions, classes, character customization, player/guild housing and a few other innovations, I'd switch to that game in a heartbeat.
I got a notice from TWC the other day saying I was downloading copyrighted material. I responded with an email and a phone call demanding to know who was monitoring my downloads, and under what court order they were doing sd. I also accused them of giving my data to unauthorized people. They started backpedaling and stammering, switching me to eight different drones. Finally one said they had received a notice from an unnamed company(to me that is). I demanded to know who the company was and wanted to appeal the notice and threat it contained. In the end I got want I wanted. An email from TWC stating the notification I received was issued in error and that I was not suspected nor accused of downloading any copyrighted material. I saved it on a thumbdrive and fired utorrent back up to finish DLing the entire collection of South Park season 9. Fuck copyright. They broadcast these shows over the fucking airwaves for free and complain about me downloading a copy. Fuck their mothers, wives, daughters and fucking dogs too.
That is a win for my state! Not only did we have both John Edwards and Jessie Helms, we have this moron. At least we have UNC basketball and many of the ACC teams.
Define classic. Start there. I think RAH's works are for the most part classic. Same with Vachss. I also like some other less known writers, and think their works fall into classics. It is not conservative to want to set the library up with only the items you think are correct. You are trying to shoot your personal opinions into what conservatism is. Conservative would be opposed to public funding of a library, but even then it would be a stretch. The opposition to using public money for something that is broadly considered for the public good is more in line with libertarianism.
I went to your link, then went to the FAQ, which sent me back to the patch notes, with a link available for the FAQs, which took me back to the patch notes. If that is the best the federal government can do, I am brushing up on my chinese, russian and arabic, because we are all fucked.
I will say it. Other than WoW, and one other game ( bought three copies for me, my sister and mom)I torrent every game I have. Even the older ones I bought years ago D1,2, and LoD, NWN and xpac, etc etc. That way I can try the game, see if it is worth buying and not be ripped off 99 out of every 100 games that I buy. Plus I get a better product since the "pirates" have usually removed any DRM, and made installing the game a snap. Common sense would dictate that the stupid game publishers sell DLC, regardless of purchase number of purchase at all. Make the game, as they seem to be doing, $5.00 and all the DLC go for $5.00 a pop. By the time you unlock the ability to buy the DLC in game, and then buy it al, the publishers will have gotten their $50-60 bucks back and then cruise on to doubling their profits through the second hand market. And it would reduce piracy and get rid of retarded and annoying DRM.
