Their anger was legitimate, as is Israel's and Palestine's perhaps. This is a very good analogy, as the Europeans and American's were a bunch of monsters, but the natives weren't a band of happy-go-lucky people living in harmony with the land either. They liked to scalp innocents in their bloodlust just as much as Whites' liked to systematically starve them and infect them with disease. Of course, at the time, no one paid attention to all the treaties the US broke to exterminate them, and many people got rich off the newly annexed land. With time, we've come to be a bit more honest with ourselves, which is something that Israel has yet to do. How will history view Israel's conquest I wonder....
There's blame on all sides. The Palestinians and Israelis both act like a bunch of violent monsters. I don't even really care that Israel is matching their butchery. That is, after all, how wars are won, and I'm not directly effected. It's not something that I like my government to be apart of, and I especially hate it when Israel tries to present itself the beacon of morality in the region, and pretend that they are any more dignified than the Muslims. The entire region is full of greedy, hateful thugs and I wish they would both stop spilling blood over a meaningless desert and go away.
Yeah, sure. Your strategy will probably work -- call criticism of Israel racist enough then people will side with you to avoid the label. Don't think for a second that you have the moral high ground though. It's just propaganda, you are no better than Pravda or Glenn Beck.
Yup, having cruel, warmongering neighbors who like to murder children and indiscriminately level the shanty-infested `cities' tend to make people a bit resentful. That applies to both sides of this conflict.
Also, do you keep this kopipe in a text file to post quickly? Also, are you in that JIDF program where they pay people to shitpost on websites with pro-Israel propoganda? I'm not accusing you, It's just the feeling that I'm getting.
Lets see if your argument passes the substitution test...
DNA tests confirm that Chinese and Africans are both the same people. Either they both have an ancestral claim to the land or neither one does.
This just might be the least intelligent comment of all time! That's it, game's over; we can stop acting dumb now, the prize has been taken.
To make gunpowder:
1) Get some chickens and let them shit, for the saltpeter.
2) Burn some wood for charcoal, for the charcoal.
3) Buy some sulfur somewhere.
4) Make black powder from the previous three.
5) Pack powder into your shitty, unstable little `gun'.
6) Stick a nail in the end.
7) ???
8) Someone (likely both of you) gets injured.
Please note that this process can likely be improved. I spent about five minutes thinking it, so don't focus on the details, just take me to mean that that probably won't work well either. If you want to regulate that away, you might focus on the sulfur part, as it's a little harder to come by. That won't last for long, because lots of stuff explodes. It might even be feasible to use gasoline, who knows? It'll be a cat and mouse game though, if people really want to have guns (for variable definitions of `gun').
I think everybody would be better off if they just set aside $125 a year in a piggy bank every time they buy a new device (whether it's a smartphone, a laptop, a TV, or whatever). It all adds up. If something ever goes wrong, they can just break the piggy bank. At least, after everything is repaired and the bills are settled, they'll have a few thousand dollars left over that they wouldn't have had otherwise.
Insurance and warranty does not work that way. The idea is to have many people pay money into the pool, knowing that only some will claim against it. The total cost to fix the devices will exceed what was paid by the people that made the claim, but because some do not claim, it balances out. For those that never made a claim, it is still a benefit, because they presumably cannot predict the future, and get the assurance that they won't be paying $800. Think of it as hedging bets (because I really want to avoid using the car insurance analogy that would fit perfectly), you lose a little money to be sure that you don't lose a lot of money.
As for warranty specifically, it gives the manufacture an incentive to make a quality product, otherwise they will either be paying for it, or paying people to find reasons to refuse to honor the warranty (which is the most common, in my experience).
Ban 3D printers seems to be your best option then. You could shut down this project, but others would pop up eventually. We can't even shut down child porn sites and botnets, much less things that are only illegal in some countries. There is no good way to delete information or contain it in ways that don't include crimes against humanity. You'll just have to remove the ways to use it: 3D printers themselves. It sucks, I know, but unless you're in a country that has figured out how to stop 13yo boys from spreading The Anarchist Cookbook around....
You seem to have no idea the scale of work the goes into turning virgin terrain into a proper road. It involves hundreds of men working hard labor, dozens of machines that cost $10M each (or about $15K a month, if you want to rent) and are backordered for two years and burn 100 gallons of diesel a day, and hauling thousands of tons of rocks across large distances to poor on the ground. Then you take the amount of time to do all that and quadrupal it if you actually want to drive on it faster than 35MPH and not have your transmission fall out. None of that pays attention to the cost of surveying the land and planning out what angle is needed on the banks, determining just how much you can safely slope the road so both compact cars and big trucks can safely drive on it, to securing right-of-way from landowners,....
But yeah, it's public money, so we can ignore all that and complain that they should work for free so no tax dollars are wasted while we still get roads that you don't need a horse to traverse.
Lurk more. Shit was never deleted before. Go take a look at old GNAA shitposts from 2001 if you don't believe me. The only post I've ever seen deleted was one with a link to child porn a few years back, and one due to a DCMA take down (there is an article about that, but I'm too lazy to find it).
I, for one, am glad they don't take it upon themselves to censor the place because a few idiots who need to be babysitted can't figure out how to hide -1 posts.
Then enable Javascript then and stop bitching. You can even block scripts selectively these days! No one is out to get you, and if you stop using IE6, there won't be nasty code ready to install you a new botnet either.
The problem is, any time you have government, you have an incentive to be inefficient. There's little accountability beyond a couple of years and it is very unlikely that your term will end prematurely unless you get involved in some sort of major scandal.
Only if you are working on the presumption that anyone who runs for office is a evil prick looking out only for their own interest, and that good, honest people will never, ever work for any government, ever. If only the world were so black and white!
With the TSA and FAA there is no real reason to improve safety because there's no competition. There's no reason to avoid slowdowns and bottlenecks because there's no competition. What needs to happen is that the TSA needs to be fully privatized and security needs to be dealt with on the airport/airline line, this would increase safety and reduce headaches. The FAA needs to have most of their responsibilities delegated to competing firms with certain standards (the competing companies need to have common protocols but should compete for which airports will hire them). Only then can air travel be saved.
When security breaches on planes happen, they get flown into buildings. It's not something that can be handled by the airline, who will offer the most crappiest `security' to minimize cost and the least `security' to sell how convenient they are. There are more considerations at work here.
Taxation is legalized theft, no more, no less.
Oh god, I'm a dumbass! I wish I had read that before I wrote the above, so I could have saved myself the trouble and not bothered trying to make a point when you are clearly a hardliner who will defy all reason for your ideology. Instead, I would have pretended to agree with you, saying something like That right. The government has no business in this. It wasn't as if any 747s were falling out of the sky before 1958 anyway! Clearly a sign of a tyranny! RAND PAUL 2016. 20/20 hindsight, I guess.
Slashdot Mirror
I'm sure that sounded much more clever in your head.
the government was doing it for you. (Or rather, for them.)
For all of us.
Then the obvious next move is to close all national and state parks. Now there's something that both parties can agree on!

Rule of thumb for Zionists - if it's critical of Israel in anyway, call it racist.
Let's see how they print out 3D bullets.

1) Get some chickens and let them shit, for the saltpeter.
2) Burn some wood for charcoal, for the charcoal.

let people know when they're using a broken browser and why things look stupid, and let the complaining get it fixed.
Sure, I would, but since I'm not simultaneously Google, Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, Wikipedia, and Amazon, I'll just end up losing pageviews.

Do you want your 13 year old daughter changing into a swimsuit in the same room as a 45 year old man?
It isn't a bad thing to assume that every man is a pedophile?

It's illegal in places where it is illegal, so surely no one will get it. Pandora has not opened the box in those places, after all.
If this gets 3D printing banned then it proves him right, and the government is tyrannical and does need to go.
Something like that.
How about replying instead of trying to knock off my karma?
You're an idiot. Happy?
God damn employed people! NEET4LyFE!

Many self-labeled libertarians are among them.
