I keep hearing that marriage is 'sacred' (which invisible space god are we refering to?) that its 'designed' for hetrosexuality (by who). That the 'community' disaproves it (which one, and do the members of said community who aprove it only think they aprove it but actually disaprove it?)
Theres so much bunkum here. Heres some facts: 1) Its none of no one elses business what two people do in there bedroom. 2) If they want to get married and you dont like it well fuck off and mind your own business. it doesnt affect you. 3) You cant 'catch the gay'. Not by being around gay people. Not by having your children taught by them, and not by stopping pretending they dont exist. 4) If gay people get married, it cant leak out and magically turn your straight marriage into a gay one.
Folks seriously need to stop being biggoted fuckheads and realise that all this gay bashing just confirms that as advanced as we think we are, deep down many of us are still misanthropic barbarians to the core. Homophobes are no diferent to klansmen.
Gish is awesome. I was totally blown away SOME folks still had the balls to make platform games, and make them awesome. Mindbogglingly creative game play. You can break *everything*. Physics and pumping soundtrack.
This's the best $20 you'll spend all year. Do it!
Funny thing is, most people wont hear of it, cos its not a 3D fps. Now dont get me wrong, I'm currently *adoring* half life 2, but Gish actually inovates the *heck* out of anything the big labels put out.
About a year and a bit ago, Sherman Austin was arrested and ended up doing about a year for providing a link on a website to another website with info on making molotov cocktails.
When Ashcrofts boys leant on him and threatened him with charges of terrorism, he made a plea bargain that would get him a coupla months jail. The judge ignored the bargain and gave him a year.
Groups like the EFF have basically said if he didnt do the plea bargain , he probably would of been released on grounds of first amendment, but he plead thinking he'd only be in a short stay. Effectively the judge denied him the chance for a real defence against a long sentence.
In australia,years ago, a guy did a long sentence for providing information on how to legally avoid voting (compulsary voting in australia).
And in britain, the servers of journalist group indymedia where siezed without explaination or warning , and now it seems without legal grounds.
Journalists are arrested *daily* around the world for writing articles that offend governments.
Turkey aint the only ones up to this sort of crap.
Could anyone post a list of websites which might have downloaded and installed that backdoor so we could avoid posting any sensitive information there until we know for sure that the problem has already been resolved?
Yes. And while we are at it, can someone post the bank safe combinations for all the banks with safes so we.... er....know how to n. oh forget it.
Well it certainly gets interesting. At the moment the home office in the UK is denying its involvement , meaning the bloody fools might of done the raid themselves.
Which of course is utterly illegal since the FBI has no jurastiction there.
Claiming that US law enforcement was indeed involved in this action in the absence of any proof to that effect is speculation and irresponsible reporting.
Other than the fact that it has been pretty much confirmed it was the FBI who did the raid. It might be 'iresponsible', but that dont stop it being true. I dont think rackspace are lying about this.
For all their whining, Indymedia has not even shown that they owned the property that was seized
yes. its indymedias property. what a silly assertion to make. And if it was returned early, its only because of an international effort to get it back , including some assistance from an international team of lawyers and a UK MP.
If it was just a nutty little website with two writers and ten readers, it'd probably be lost to oblivion. Thankfully IMC doesnt take shit from governments and has the muscle to back it up.
No. Perception mediates reality, but the real is not entirely out of grasp.
Kant figured that sucker out a few hundred years ago.
Assuming all is working as it should, you still have a quite capable logical aparatus between yer ears to figure out whats going on from all that jumble data coming thru your senses.
I have a relative that works with microsoft that tells me microsoft did this with NT4, (or maybe NT3.11 or whatever it was), and it flopped HARD.
As it pans out people felt macos was the better OS. Even if macos really only was up to par with Win 3.1 , until OS/X turns up which blows anything by microsoft out the water.
I could never in good concience blame americans for 911. It was a horrid horrid tragedy.
But militant movements dont evolve in a vacuum. We need to ask "What happened, by whom, how and when that caused these people to want us harm?". I mean, why the US/allies and not , say, china.
And that is what has not been asked. And THAT is the danger.
Unfortunately we do know the source of the frusturations.... foreign interference. If your neighbor came over and kept punching you everyime you had a fight with your partner or something , you might just feel compelled to go and smash his windows in with a brick after a while.
Diebold election scamming is the main one that comes to mind. Theres been a heck of a lot of anti protestor violence reported (and in some cases acted on by authorities) ie in Genoa. Indy does tend to focus on local news alot, so its in the local area indy sites that you'll find most of the scoops.
Indy does alot of work in countries with strong political repression. Iran, Iraq, Burma, etc.
Compromising the identity of undercover police officers is something that is frowned on by governments worldwide. Don't know if it's actually illegal in Italy or Switzerland though.
The problem of course here is that protestors for years had been desparately pointing out that agent provocaters had been the ones stirring up strife at protests, and not them.
Those cops where in classic black block garb, and provide some solid evidence of cops infiltrating to cause trouble.
I think protestors have a right to get this information out, simply because it provides some evidence towards clearing the innocence of a lot of people who have been entrapped into acts of madness by people who have less than altruistic intentions towards 'the movement'.
I assure you, if a spook was giving me grief, I'd expose his ass quicker than he can blink.

That's balloney. Lots of people are pro Bush all over the world. Of course if you read only the communist media your impression is different. Try to read non-communist media to get a more balanced view of the world.
let me guess. Your an american. I dont mean that as an insult. I have alot of love for american people. But I've *ONLY* ever heard pro bush sentiment from americans. or toady politicians
Theres plenty of pro US people out there, but you better believe that alot of them are having a bit of a crisis about this bush fella.

US charging russia for flight?
:) There ARE NO american flights to the ISS!
That will rake in all of no dollars.
Although I've heard that the US might start sending shuttles up there in may.
But your screenshots show 450,000 list members. Dude what legit mail list has 450,000 mail list members?
Not necessarilly. I was a kid surfer, and knew all about films like Big Wednesday and Morning of the Earth and all that.
:(
And gleaming the cube predated me (and I'm 30) skating, but sure as hell I saw it as young as I could.*

They don't make it a habit of releasing information on pending cases..
Kafka wrote a book about that sorta thing. Ya know, knowing why your being busted is kind of a cornerstone of justice.
"Your honor. I dont know what I'm charged with, but I'm innocent I think?".
Yeah... *THAT* would be fair wouldnt it....

Just to avoid misunderstandings, that's shooting protestors with cameras, not guns.
Well cameras AND guns actually. Yeah. you heard me. RIP Carlo Guilini. Poor kid wasnt shot with no camera.

What major stories has indymedia broken?
Diebold election scamming is the main one that comes to mind. Theres been a heck of a lot of anti protestor violence reported (and in some cases acted on by authorities) ie in Genoa. Indy does tend to focus on local news alot, so its in the local area indy sites that you'll find most of the scoops.

I assure you, if a spook was giving me grief, I'd expose his ass quicker than he can blink.
The ridiculous part of it, was the photos HAD been (as far as I remember) redacted in the form of face blur/blacking, after an initial FBI approach.
This action was merely harassment.

And then some....
In australia, a typically pro-us country, my grandfather told me that he cant remember a less liked us president. Nixon was kinda up there tho.
Not to put too fine a point on it. George bush is ONLY loved by about half the us population and almost none of the worlds population.
But you get that when your foreign policy is "Fuck the earth".
What is that fucking bunch of crapola? In essence, you have to ***PROVE*** that you are innocent!!!!
In effect yeah. Its civil , and not criminal, so its not a presumption of innocence, because civil stuff isnt really like that.
This is a *FANTASTIC* Idea!

and whatever they can thinkof etc , then we can start rendering this USELESS and OFFENSIVE system into the ground.
