    The whole reason the company is crashing is because all those claims where smoke. There is no new technology that means a smaller sample (which they diluted) can give accurate results. There is no breakthrough here, just smoke and mirrors.

    If those countries were willingly entering into a military cooperation agreement, the US would say nothing. As it is fear of Russian aggression that forces these countries into the waiting arms of NATO, you only have yourselves to blame for it. If you would stop invading other countries, you wouldn't be losing so many of your border countries to NATO.

    Funny, that isn't the history people outside of Russia have heard.

    By August 1, 2008, Ossetian separatists began shelling Georgian villages, with a sporadic response from Georgian peacekeepers in the region. Following these deadly attacks, Georgia began a full-scale military operation in the South Ossetian conflict zone on 7 August,[40] taking control of most of Tskhinvali in hours. Georgia later stated it was also responding to Russia moving non-peacekeeping units into the country.

    Russia accused Georgia of "aggression against South Ossetia",[40] as well as "genocide" of thousands of its people,[41] which was later proven to be false.[42] With the stated aim of "peace enforcement", Russia officially launched a large-scale land, air and sea operation against Georgia on 8 August.[43] Russian and Ossetian forces battled Georgian forces throughout South Ossetia for four days, until Georgian forces retreated. Russian and Abkhaz forces opened a second front by attacking the Kodori Gorge held by Georgia. Russian naval forces blockaded part of the Georgian coast. This was the first war in history in which cyber warfare coincided with military action. An active information war was also waged during and after the conflict. On 12 August, President of France Nicolas Sarkozy negotiated a ceasefire agreement.

    Perhaps you should learn to better troll, you might get a pay raise out of it.

    That was kind of my confusion. Why is there a money laundering charge at all, to use the earlier example of poker chips, if the FBI had bought $1500 of poker chips, could they then charge the casino with money laundering? Why would it be money laundering to just be a currency exchange? Do the charges stem from them telling him what they were going to do with the bitcoin?

    If the liberal politicians want so much to get rid of the guns, there is a quite easy process to go through. All it takes is a constitutional amendment, it has happened before, and if it is so important and popular, it should be trivial to pass. Until that process is followed, it is the right of every American according to the Bill of Rights to own and bear a firearm.
