What world do you live where someone with a concealed carry license doesn't have any "real" firearms handling experience? Do you not understand how incredibly easy it is to become at least semi-proficient with shooting a modern firearm? The reason so many states have such low requirements for their classes is because it is incredibly easy to pick out a man-sized target from 10 yards and put rounds into center mass of that target.
And while a panicked crowd is going to create sighting problems, for you to sit there and say that someone lining up their shots to try to stop the shooter would somehow make things worse is just laughable on its face.
Just because you're terrified of guns and have no experience with them doesn't mean that those of us who do have that experience should be deprived of our right and ability to defend ourselves (and others).
I'm willing to be that the department that created those encoded links to the product pages, but some other department disabled deep linking and redirects everything to the home page.
That's because when we Americans want to tell someone to "get out" we want to make sure they get the message. "Get ooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuutttttttt" is far more ominous.
Bears repeating: never talk to the police. They are not your friend, and they are not there to help you. They are there to close out a case as quickly as possible. Don't give them any ammunition to close it on you.
Are you freaking kidding me? Kim Kardashian had a sex tape get "leaked" and went from being a nobody to being worth over $50 million. Do you honestly think that scandalous pictures have the power to destroy someone's career now?
You obviously haven't read through any of the docs Facebook has published on how they run their data centers, or really looked at HPHP, their solution to compiling PHP. It's actually very interesting to anyone interested in how to handle millions of web transactions per second.
That's an awfully broad brush you're painting with. First off, just because someone has lots of friends on Facebook does not mean they're not forming deep, meaningful relationships with those people. Sure, the majority of one's contacts on Facebook would probably be better categorized as acquaintances than actual friends, but that doesn't mean everyone you're connected with on the site is merely an acquaintance. That's absurd on the face of it.
Second, has it ever occurred to you that some women (and men) enjoy being a "sex object" because they genuinely enjoy sex and don't attach the same meaning and hangups to it that you appear to? Maybe you should think about why you think sex is somehow related to power and that it has to be exchanged for anything at all, rather than just enjoyed for the pleasure it can bring to an individual, a couple, or a group.
Whenever I read a story about copyright I am reminded of a great quote from Pablo Picasso: good artists borrow, great artists steal.
Artists do not depend on copyright to make their art or benefit from it. Only business-types need copyright, so they can keep making money off of someone else's work for decades after the artist has expired.
I would take it one step further and say that jurors shouldn't even be in the same room as the case they're rendering a verdict on. The lawyers, defendants, hell maybe even the judge, should all be barred from knowing who's on the jury and why. Let it be completely random, with the jury sitting in a room connected via closed-circuit television.
Shouldn't be a problem finding a selection of them on this site. Of course, they might not fit the idea you have in your head of what a "virgin" looks like, but hey, it's the blood that counts, right?
I'm pretty sure it would work like wine - people would avoid the cheap ones.
I see a serious flaw in your reasoning. Bronco Wines (makers of Two Buck Chuck) sell more wine than any other California winery, especially ones like Opus One and Silver Oak; Yellow Tail Wines sell more wine than all other Australian wineries combined.
You're right about one thing: you haven't checked the legislation. The only part that may not apply to US citizens is the requirement that they be remanded to military custody. It's still an option if the President (on his own authority) deems it necessary.
So the corollary to the adage that a person who represents themselves in court has a fool for a client would be, a doctor who self-diagnoses themselves has a corpse for a patient?
Quick question to someone who seems like he might know: is the current stock of hydrogen in the universe all that will ever exist, or does the stock get replenished (so to speak) during a supernova as heavier elements get split into lighter ones? Just wondering if there could ever be a point in the lifetime of the universe when light elements like hydrogen and helium simply don't exist any more.

Don't tell me what to do! I'll sever your head!
The fact that you're modded Flamebait right now says a lot about the direction Slashdot has taken over the years.

Pretty sure dmacleod808 was referring to use of the word "prefect" instead of "perfect".

All men die; not all men truly live. If you can achieve the latter, the former will hold no fear for you.
Did you even read my post?
Don't bother answering, it's clear you did not or you would not have thrown out a strawman so quickly.

If you live in Texas, you'll still get paid. State law trumps any HR policies your company might have.

You said something about carrier-based aircraft in the same sentence as F-15s; it gave me the impression you were calling F-15s carrier-based.
Why would Omar get involved? Is Iran working with the Barksdales now?
There are no warships that can survive a missile striking the hull.
Bzzt! Wrong, try again.
The Navy doesn't use F-15s, those are Air Force jets. The Naval equivalent is the F-18.
Get your comments off my blog, you damn dirty ape!
