The problem is that if they don't complain about this and try to shut it down what's to stop cable companies from doing to same thing and stop paying billions a year in retransmission fees? The TV industry makes a shitload of money from cable TV providers. They certainly do not want to see that revenue stream dry up.
Unlikely to happen, despite them saying it's something they might do. There are millions of people that use antennas to watch broadcast TV. Killing the OTA feeds would be cutting off their noses to spite their faces, especially if they think doing so is going to drive people to start paying for cable TV.
And then people wonder why the NSA is tracking everyone and the feds are developing drones. It's for asshats like this douchebag. Keep bragging asshole.
No, the implication was that a comparison between prop 8 and the KKK is invalid because the KKK has routinely partaken in the deaths of black people while prop 8 has not. I rejected this assertion because the reality is that gay people are murdered for being gay, and while prop 8 may not be directly responsible for these actions, anything that promotes discrimination also fosters the attitude that it's ok to beat up or kill someone you perceive to be gay. It's not.
But nice try on the strawman argument. Better luck next time.
Discrimination is discrimination, no matter who the target minority group is. And it's not like gay people aren't beaten and killed simply for being gay.
Which, mind you, is perfectly legal in most states, for a boss to fire you due to your personal beliefs -- or any reason really that doesn't put you into a protected class.
Yeah, exactly. Nothing to see here. Show it to me happening in real time with common easily obtainable equipment and maybe then you'll get my attention. But not with a lot of maybe's, perhaps, and coulds.

I'd love to see USB 3.0 and gigabit ethernet on there. Hell, throw in onboard wifi while you're at it.
You could just leave it the fuck alone.
Nothing more to add than that.
...Mr. Anthony buys me a new computer or OS + the necessary hardware upgrades for all my XP boxes then he can tell me what I must do. If not, STFU.
Yup.

Depends. When will they stop paying off judges and lawmakers?

And then taken care of and educated by who? We're a long way off from robots who are legitimate substitutes for real human parents.
No, because you're dealing with 30 generations. You don't need to do it all at once.
Instead of trying to move 40,000 people 5 light years away you move 100 along with 39,900 sperm and egg samples.
He's a bad person for supporting prop 8 because prop 8 discriminates against gay people. Period.
I've heard of blue/yellow and red/green color blindness, but not purple. Hmm...have you seen an eye doctor?

Don't forget the purple. Everyone always forgets the purple.
Are you off your meds again?
Exactly my point.
Go fucking find it yourself. I'm not going to provide a citation for something that's taught in high school biology class.
Well scientifically there are 3 races of humans, but I'm not going to argue the point with you.
