    There are at least four candidates for president currently. Voting against Hillary doesn't require voting for Trump. Vote third party.

    Perhaps you should try reading the laws she broke, as you seem to be under the impression that she is innocent of crimes which she quite clearly committed.

    You don't know the law, so you are the bleeding idiot here. She got off because she is a billionaire and they knew they wouldn't be able to get her convicted because she could afford expensive lawyers.

    The better comparison is to Petraeus. He did less than Hillary and got 2 years probation and $100k fine, as well as getting barred from ever holding a security clearance again.

    Feel the Johnson if you don't like Trump, why would you vote for Hillary after all that has come out?

    How about if instead of setting it at $100k, we instead link it to the 95th percentile of wages, currently, this works out to $95k, but it will fluctuate with inflation, whereas $100k will not.

    Not sure what you are trying to say, where does the constitution say that a president has to be born on US property? His mother is an American citizen, therefore he is a natural born US citizen. His father was Cuban, Canadian, and most recently became a US citizen (2005), but only one parent has to be a US citizen to give the child citizenship.

  8. I am not sure about other BBC programs, but Amazon Prime video has Doctor Who, so they are likely the ones who paid the requested rate this time around.

  9. So your bitch is that Netflix suspended your account when you failed to pay, and didn't notify you (likely they did, you just spammed the messages)? You poor dear...I feel bad for Netflix that they lost such a valuable customer.

    Most games don't particularly stress the CPU. If you have a decent video card, you really don't need a spectacular rest of the computer. I would also recommend getting an SSD, as that tends to have the most impact on games after the video card, but even this is not needed to game.

  16. Um, "overage" costs the same as the normal data cost on Verizon. Not sure what you have been exposed to, but I don't think $10/GB is terribly expensive, as it is the same rate at least with Google Fi.

  17. oh I don't know let's make something up... not being able to handle both voice and data traffic at the same time.

    I don't think that existed ever. Some systems allowed that to happen by having two separate radios in the phone, not all phones had two radios, so not all phones upported data and voice at the same time.

    You know what, I am totally with this line:

    In 2009 he published a book (The King's Torah) in which he writes that it is permissible for Jews to kill non-Jews (including children) who threaten the lives of Jews.[3]

    The rest of that seems to veer into crazyland. As this isn't a published work of the Israeli government, I am not sure why you would think it applies in this case though.

    Just because the Palestinians are really bad at war, and Israel's Iron Dome is very effective, doesn't mean that Israel isn't being attacked.

    So, when are you going to demand the US give Texas back to Mexico as the land was taken "illegally" in war?

    The land was taken in a war, Israel was attacked, and they conquered the areas. By international law, if it were any other country, it would be legally their land. I don't see the UN demanding that Russia give back sections of Georgia and Ukraine that they have annexed in war.

    Considering that Israel doesn't engage in acts of terror, I can't imagine how you could even try to make that kind of statement.

    Palestinians randomly fire rockets at Israel cities. Israel calmly calls the people and tells them they should evacuate as the area is about to be bombed (to try and take out the rocket launchers). Who commits an act of terror here?
