The ACLU has often been criticized for "ignoring the Second Amendment" and refusing to fight for the individual's right to own a gun or other weapons. This issue, however, has not been ignored by the ACLU. The national board has in fact debated and discussed the civil liberties aspects of the Second Amendment many times.
We believe that the constitutional right to bear arms is primarily a collective one, intended mainly to protect the right of the states to maintain militias to assure their own freedom and security against the central government. In today's world, that idea is somewhat anachronistic and in any case would require weapons much more powerful than handguns or hunting rifles. The ACLU therefore believes that the Second Amendment does not confer an unlimited right upon individuals to own guns or other weapons nor does it prohibit reasonable regulation of gun ownership, such as licensing and registration.
Deception is a synonym for lying. Besides, I'm supposed to be checking the review sites (check before you buy), and if they tell me the 173T is badass and looks really good, then I go buy one and it sucks, I feel like a sucker.
I don't own a TV so I can't relate to the MTV/VH1 comment. And I only listen to the local college stations when I don't have a CD on or my MP3 player plugged in.
Are there any decent e-readers for this? I have looked around and all of them want to use some crazy proprietary format or just plain suck. I think those things could take off if there was a good one, I'm game.
In this case, it's the artists that create something (music!), and the RIAA does nothing but leech off of them and the consumer. They are an unnecescary middle-man that provides no value to either party.
They are trying to find a backdoor to this bothersome freedom of the press and freedom of speech. Next thing you know they'll try to say that freedom of press only applies to those who have a FCC permit.
After that they'll try and claim that the 2nd ammendment only applies to the military.
Yeah, except all these goddamn virus writers and hackers think they are doing you a favor by breaking into your car and loosening the steering wheel and cutting your brake lines to show you how insecure your door locks are.
Those who will trade political liberty for security deserve neither.
Listen up son, that's not what it says. It's literal, not figurative. You're right in saying that you don't have the right to endanger others, but wrong in trying to morph Franklin's words to fit into simple "political security". It applies to physical security as well.
If someone drives a car down the wrong way of a freeway, you do not install cameras and remote engine kills in everyone's car.

What's the specs on that MP3 tera-server? ;)
I prefer NOT to compromise with my rights. Thomas Jefferson would bitchslap you so hard your mama would cry.
They were gathering signatures for a petition against the "Patriot" Act.
Did you sign it?
Use Dreamweaver MX or MX2004. It keeps getting better and works on OS X too.

That's lying.

THE SKY IS FALLING! Y2K IS GOING TO BE THE END OF THE WORLD!
No wait, OVER-POPULATION is going to be the end of the world!
Like I said... Fuck Peter de Jager.
The MX 2004 suite has switched back to funky windowing. It's cool and useful, but could pose problems under this environment.
They will do the dance of the hypocrite.
Dance Limbaugh Dance.
Heh, nice bitchslap.
Nihilist.

HA! Mod this up.
84 percent?
Mod me down, I have too much karma.

This is what I predict will become standard. It's like automating caller-id, and it's so simple in concept.
Remember the writer who was sent to jail because he linked to a protest guide on another site?
1 year in federal prison.
For being a writer and writing things the govt doesn't like.
The government wanted to send him away for 20.

Oh wait...
Excercise your 2nd amendment right just in case.
Or plasma cutters. No retooling and every case can be completely custom.

You're right, you can't half-ass a quote with that much gravity.

No, just devalue the money outside of the US... blah blah blah
