Can they feed a family with those "jobs"? Because if they can't, you can stuff your "job" where the sun doesn't shine. I don't need an occupation, I need money, I can keep busy myself just fine.
You might notice that the French didn't have the right to bear arms back then either. Neither did the Russians in 1917. What happened in both cases was that they were SO pissed that they didn't give a fuck whether they were shot, they simply stole some guns and the soldiers refused to fire at their own people. Neither had anything to do with the right to have arms. If anything, Russia was before WW1 a brutal dictatorship where as much as thinking you could possibly consider having weapons was a capital offense.
I have to ask, wouldn't it be cheaper for the country, both in terms of saving cost for the defense as well as dealing with the general fallout he produces, to just let the attacker get through?
Really? You pay for using the bar, not the drinks inside? All the hotels I have been to were charging for the drinks, not the bar. I could put anything inside and keep it cool just fine without any extra fee.
And you really think that any of this changes anything? Hey, maybe next week we get to vote on whether the first lady's dress is going to be teal or brown when they go abroad and sign away some more jobs to the benefit of some large corporations.
What we'd need to be able to decide about is whether those damn jobs go overseas!
Just reuse the evil bit, it's actually reserved for malware but since copyrighted material should also not be routed, I guess it's ok to reuse it. Anyone not having permission to use content has to set it and that should take care of the whole mess.
I would actually suggest it to the EU, but I secretly fear they'd seriously implement it, considering they just showed how much they really understand about the internet...
Youtube should essentially redirect all videos to one detailing how to set up a VPN to a server outside the EU when called from an IP address inside the EU, lean back and enjoy the tantrum.
Yeah, because someone planning to use a drone as a smart bomb will give half a shit about the transmitting power of his drone.
If someone has a drone that transmits at a gigawatt, do you think that someone could stop it before it slams into its target? Hell, I'd be surprised if anyone even noticed.
With the difference that in a working democracy, you could actually get rid of the government and install a new one. You'd have to get a working democracy first, granted, but that's at least an option you don't have with corporations.
I wish they'd declare war on privacy. Considering how effective the other wars on... were, from drugs to terrorism, it would essentially mean we get more privacy.
Think the idea is new? This joke is from back when the space race was on.

Funny company going to provide all the balloons for the big opening.

Yes, my dad thought so, too...

The Europeans know that this is bullshit, don't worry. We're no more in control of the goofballs that rule us than you are of the annoying orange.

We're already way ahead of you, Mr. Public.

Again, what keeps me from using a more powerful transmitter? You think you can shoot my drone down before I shoot your prez?

So drop the charade, what's the real reason?
I'm pretty sure you can point out how having a gun would change anything.
Because you're a teenager and don't want your friends to take pictures of your surprised/sad/whatever face and make a meme out of it.
You haven't been around teens much, I guess? If anything, teens do the exact opposite of what their parents are doing or considering right.
You'd think the ones wearing foil under their fedoras would be all over an anonymous currency system (which Bitcoin is NOT).
That's the problem. We know.
No, I'm a Discordian Pope. All hail Eris.
The difference is maybe mostly that I'm joking. They take that stuff serious.
Insurances more and more reward stupidity. And I still think stupidity should be punished, as it was before, well, insurances.
It's more an extrapolation from experience.
I read that as "actual science ranked most valuable college majors". I was prepared to see a few gender studies majors throw a hissy fit.
