So figure out how to take a cut of the electrical taxes that we already pay to pay for the roads. And have the people who already do state safety/emissions checks mark down the mileage when you pull up. Monitoring constantly is silly. Even the IRS doesn't send you a bill daily (yes, I realize they take a calculated percentage out of each check).
So yeah, I think one soldier releasing hundreds of thousands of documents without any care to do so solely with a moral purpose, and taking care not to release things that are flat out dangerous, and giving them to a guy who just wanted to bulk publish EVERYTHING regardless of content is not only illegal, but also not morally defensible.
-Wikileaks contacted the Pentagon prior to the leaks. The Pentagon refused to review the documents. Later, the Pentagon concluded that the leak "did not disclose any sensitive intelligence sources or methods", and that furthermore "there has not been a single case of Afghans needing protection or to be moved because of the leak."
-Wikileaks had major newspapers review the documents before release, and are continuing to withhold the majority of the Diplomatic Cables from release.
Your assertion is false.
Just FYI, I've seen what happens to a system if you type "rm -rf/" (on a live system, no less!). It won't erase the whole drive. Most likely, you will remove some OS important file and the system will shut down. It's possible to rebuild a system that's had its root removed. Most of the files will still be there. (This was Solaris 10, IIRC).
Cute Fuzzy Animal Lovers have the impression that there's value in preserving wild species
is like saying you have no value beyond the value of the materials that compose you. Some carbon, some oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and trace elements. Those elements aren't particularly valuable, so call it a couple bucks. What, you think you're worth more than that? Doesn't that make you a Smelly Hairy Mammal Lover?
For one day (one hour would suffice), shut down ALL Google services. Search, GMail, Youtube, Voice, Android, Ads, Picassa, Docs, Blogger, Maps, all of it replaced with a message that says "Google is offline thanks to the Media conglomerates. A message has been sent to your local representative on your behalf indicating your support for Google. Thank you." That should get some attention.
I agree, but I could still see it being used a a good thought experiment in class. Once evolution has been discussed, open up the floor for alternative theories. If ID is suggested, work through how it would be validated and verified as a theory. That would prove to be impossible, so ID would be rejected by the class as non-scientific.
And corporations/wealthy would be able to funnel income through various shells to be under the specified amount, and we'd be right back where we started: the wealthy and corporations paying no taxes.
Fear is the foundation of most governments; but it is so sordid and brutal a passion, and renders men in whose breasts it predominates so stupid and miserable, that Americans will not be likely to approve of any political institution which is founded on it.
On the Pentagon Papers, it's not very clear-cut that the press has unlimited right to publish classified documents. Yes, Times v Unites States was eventually ruled for the Times et. al., but the opinions of the justices were really divided.
The Espionage Act still criminalizes anyone
"Whoever having unauthorized possession of, access to, or control over any document,... relating to the national defense, or information relating to the national defense which information the possessor has reason to believe could be used to the injury of the United States or to the advantage of any foreign nation, willfully communicates, delivers, transmits or causes to be communicated, delivered, or transmitted, or attempts to communicate, deliver, transmit or cause to be communicated, delivered, or transmitted the same to any person not entitled to receive it, or willfully retains the same and fails to deliver it to the officer or employee of the United States entitled to receive it."
So there is precedent in the Pentagon Papers case, but I'm not sure how it would be applied in a +400,000 document release such as this.
We hold that the stricter standard required for a body cavity search also applies to an X-ray search. An X-ray search, although perhaps not so humiliating as a strip search, nevertheless is more intrusive since the search is potentially harmful to the health of the suspect. It goes beyond the passive inspection of body surfaces. We think that the use of such medical procedures should be restricted to situations where there is a clear indication that the suspect is concealing contraband within his body.
All of which apply to border searches and not routine air travel. There's probably very little legal standing for these searches apart from the "license with the airlines" argument.

Yup, pretty much. We were paying $5,000 a head in Pakistan for "enemy combatants." You can bet we got a lot of them that way!

As once was said about Howard Stern: those who love him tune in to see what he'll say next, and those who hate him tune in to see what he'll say next.
So you're suggesting that the 13th, 15th, 19th, or even the 25th amendments were bad ideas?
