GMOs are the worst thing to ever be unleashed on the world because it is gene-splicing done by mainly US firms but it is horrible that the US is not engaging in "unnatural" (not sperm and egg) gene-splicing of human DNA?
Or restated as "direct manipulation of non-human DNA is worse than admiring Hitler but direct manipulation of human DNA is the best thing ever."
It isn't those 5% that define us all to the public. It is Hollywood who defines us to the public. IT guys and programmers are every bit as diverse as any other field but Hollywood doesn't like that story because Jocks do sports and Introverts do computers and Wild-Eyed Hillbillies do guns and fishing. Just like Hollywood says that Blacks and Hispanics are gangbangers and drug dealers and pimps and whores.
Never mind that half the guys I work with (programmers and IT) are avid hunters and fishers and into shooting sports and archery competitions and golfing and such.
The point is that if everyone sets up to save tabs and uses the tab, then everyone can decide for themselves how many spaces a tab represents, at least with a modern IDE like Visual Studio since 2003 or earlier. Unix crap may not be as nice to work with, I haven't cared about vi for decades.
So, they showed that C)2 can be crystallized in a couple of years instead of thousands of years and the best people can come up with is "maybe this is viable"? How about, maybe the belief about it taking millions or hundreds of millions of years to produce oil and coal is just crap because we now have proof that it doesn't?
If talking with the NHTSA aids the NHTSA in an investigation that causes the government to take action against Tesla (a legal action) then the clause would have been an attempt to prohibit that. And just because contracts are inferior to law does not mean that lawyers aren't putting in provisions that violate the law hoping people follow the contract anyway.
Saying that things don't happen because they are against the law is saying that there is no crime because crime is against the law.
Just curious... If the hardware wasn't manufactured, where did it come from? Did they just find it laying there on the beach or in the forest like the Christian watch?
Yes and requiring the specialized (and expensive services) of AAA instead of calling a friend makes so much sense. And carrying home some gas for your lawn mower is a really, really bad idea as well. And don't even think about hauling that 20 lb tank of propane home to do some grilling. Grilling is best left to the experts who bothered to build a properly licensed restaurant.
By the time the idiot politicians get through "protecting" everyone and everyone gets all the safety they are demanding, it will be illegal to fill your lawn mower from a five gallon gas can and anybody caught with four or five five gallon cans strapped to their trailers heading to the desert to have some fun on their ATVs will be committing a felony.
And you better not run out of gas because you will have to call a tow truck to get towed to the gas station instead of calling a buddy to bring you a can of gas.
Exactly. Nobody wants them. Police officers do not want them. Soldiers do not want them. Obama's bodyguards do not want them. Why should anyone else want them?
Until criminals realize that a screwdriver and hammer allow them to tear the gun down to the point the electromechanical "lockout" can be removed so that the smart gun is now an ordinary dumb gun and usable by anyone. Seriously, how stupid are people to not understand how easy it will be to circumvent the technology?
The fact that Johns Hopkins no longer performs gender reassignment surgeries because they did enough studying to determine that the surgery does not stop the dysphoria or other self-hate thoughts in a large majority of people might be a clue that there is a consensus among a subset of experts on the subject.
Additionally, I have read articles about boys who feel that they are a lesbian trapped in a man's body and women who feel that they are gay men trapped in a woman's body. Parsing that statement tells me that you have physically male (adorned with penises) men who enjoy the sight of and want to be with naked women and who are claiming the right to be with them because they "feel" that they should have the same body parts as those women. And likewise on the flip-side.
If anyone truly believes that looking in your pants is not a good way to determine which bathroom to use because of KISS, then you are truly a rube (or looking for rube goldberg).
No, but it makes it a bit easier to prove bad intentions. If the law gives men access to the women's bathroom, then the fact that a man is in the bathroom is no longer grounds for suspicion. That removes one barrier for ill-intentioned men. The fact that proponents of allowing transgendered men into women's bathrooms and changing rooms can't see the potential problem because "transgendered men aren't interested in women" tells me quite a bit about such proponents. The biggest being that they are lacking in any imagination because non-transgendered men have already been caught lurking in women's bathrooms so anybody who can't imagine that others might have imaginations and can pretend to be things they aren't shows a huge lack of imagination.
"I have seen many a gay guy purposely make bigotted people uncomfortable because its fun." So a gay male bullying a straight male is "fun" and to be encouraged? And that attitude is evidence a double-standard in exactly what way?
Wanting a better educated and healthier populace is not evil. Wanting to confiscate private property to attempt to achieve that goal is. Yes, bot Bernie and Hillary are now running ads talking about confiscating wealth without due process if and when people and organizations decide to emigrate from the US. They make fun of Trump for talking about a wall to keep illegal immigrants out and they are talking about building walls to keep people in. Which one sounds more like dictators from history with that?
I'm just using a phrase I have heard others use to describe countries where the workers are completely in charge like the USSR and Cuba, etc. And no, I don't believe the workers were any better off under those regimes either but some people do.

" If guns were legal there, then no doubt the attack would have killed tens of thousands."
Care to explain how a legal gun kills more than an illegal gun and how any man-potable gun kills more than the man-portable bombs that were used?

You seriously ask that question? Obviously you haven't tried to buy some quality OTC epinephrine lately. Or some quality target/plinking tools lately.

Underpaid contractors? Have you ever actually talked to drillers and heavy equipment operators?
SHHH. Don't tell my 180k Yukon and 130k Impala. They've had some issues recently but well beyond the 100k mark.

Moron.
So they are safe in Colorado because no cell phone has ever caused a fire at a gas station.
Uh, not quite.
By the time the idiot politicians get through "protecting" everyone and everyone gets all the safety they are demanding, it will be illegal to fill your lawn mower from a five gallon gas can and anybody caught with four or five five gallon cans strapped to their trailers heading to the desert to have some fun on their ATVs will be committing a felony.

Well cock used for fucking is better than one that just gets rubbed by its owners hands.
Said no study ever.

In some ways yes but in other ways no. At least they are being anatomically honest.

Hey now, don't be bringing up actual, real-life stuff. This is all just an academic thought experiment and then we pass laws.
That the leftists don't actually have enough imagination to perform thought experiments is beside the point.
