I'm sure it does. Does this prove in anyway that Black people are more prone to violence than white people? Errr- no. So?
The fact is that in some places, white people commit more crimes than black people. So there. What do you conclude from that fact?
Right, there must be other factors at play here. Now until a decent study shed some light on the subject, I tend to consider people equal. Makes it much easier for everyone.
Frankly, I really don't care what the reason is. Sure, prattle on about socio-economic injustice and all that. I don't care. I wasn't even born yet during slavery, Jim Crow, or segregation. It was none of my doing, none of my responsibility; and I will accept none of the blame.
What I do care about, in the here and now, is the safety and security of my family, myself, and my friends. Period. Full stop.
Wow. What an arrogant jerk. The fact that you weren't born does absolves you from any responsibility to what your forefathers did, this is true. It doesn't prevent you from recognizing what happened and try to understand that not all black people are criminals. It's not in their genes, not anymore that practicing slavery is in white people's genes. You know, so that your offspring can develop some ability to do some critical thinking by themselves and outsmart you very quickly. THAT is the legacy you should leave to your kids.
Statistically (And I didn't count, but if you disbelieve it please speak out) AC's comment tend to be more trollish and flamebait. Just look at the GNAA posts for a good example of what I'm talking about.
Hence, a portion of the people posting AC are just AC to troll in all anonymity. Hence, a lower credibility rating.
Looks like my "tiny little narrow-minded world" is still an order of magnitude larger than yours.
If you're in the US, very little of your tax money is going to people who "don't want to work." The 8% who are counted as unemployed are actively looking for work and can't find it. I take it you've never been in that situation -- you're lucky.
There is no more AFDC. That was abolished in 1996. It was replaced with TANF, and its objective is to get people into the workforce and has a two year time limit.
Most of the who recieve SNAP (formerly food stamps) are employed. Your taxes aren't going to feed someone who doesn't want to work, they're feeding McDonald's and Walmart's CEO's greed.
Your ire is aimed at the wrong class. Me, I'm incensed that oil companies and rich farmers and other corporations get government subsidies. Feeding the poor? I have no problem with that, or paying taxes. You may not be, but I'm a Christian. Christians are commanded to pay their taxes and also to feed the poor. Greed and selfishness, otoh, are forbidden to us.
Hmm. Interesting comment. Let's see.
A/ Your assumption is false, I have been laid off and then unemployed for some time. I know what it's like. And I wasn't eligible for any money as I was not in my country of origin. B/ " The 8% who are counted as unemployed are actively looking for work and can't find it.". Hmmm, are you sure? Did you check them all? Noone faking the search for a job? Come on, wake up. I dunno if it's a lot or not, but it's certainly not 0%. C/ "Your ire is aimed at the wrong class" My ire is aimed at politicians, contrary to your thinking. D/ "Feeding the poor? I have no problem with that" Helping the poor, I have no problem with that. Blindly throwing them money I have a problem with. E/ I live in a (mostly) socialist country. You can apply for the RMI (Minimum revenue for insertion (into society)) and most get it quite quickly. Then, you basically get a little less than the minimum wages which are not as low as in the US. What incentive is left to look for a job? You'll earn slightly more but you'll have to wake up every morning. I wasn't talking about the US specifically. Throwing money away should always be done cautiously, because people get used to it in no time. F/ I'm a Christian too. Why bring religion in this? Religion has nothing to do with the matter. Bringing it here is as best disingenuous, trying to award yourself the higher moral ground.
Well, we'll get there eventually. But in the meantime, most of us *have* to work in order to feed out families. So if I get busy at work, it really is for the money. If I didn't have to, I'd drop it in a heartbeat.
I'd do something else entirely, I'd not just sit idle in front of TV, although it's fair to assume that my TV time would go up.
So now, since I work, what is the rationale in taxing me to feed people that don't want to work?
Ahhhh, because I don't. But you didn't answer the question, you just brushed it aside.
Why not feeding everyone then and let the ones that want to work do so. Sounds on par with your belief that "put the value of human life above just about everything else".
Do you think its a viable principle? Remember, humans are lazy.
This and the fact that having ONE website that is the receptacle of all ballots is probably going to draw a heck of a lot of efforts to break in. Not sure something like that *can be* secured.
I'd argue that there is very little data on GE's website for Anon to brag about... And the fact that GE is in a business where you seldom make enemies. I mean, if your lightbulb burns out a little too soon, you don't get all mad at GE. They sell 'dead' products. And most of them are there in a heavily regulated / saturated / mature market. Hard to distinguish them from the competition.
All that makes it a company that is less 'hatable' than SONY that screws with their customers on a weekly basis.
Apparently, a whole range of devs can't release a quality product on Android while they do just fine products on iOS. Coincidentally, it's all the devs that needs 3D Rendering.
Go figure. It cannot be that Apple's platform is much more leveled. Nah. Can't be.
Both black, flat, rounded-rectangles with a touchscreen that covers substantially the whole front of the device. Where's the novelty in Apple's design then
In the rest of the patent claims?
This is how all patent trolls work.
You have no clue what patent trolls are. Patent trolls *do not* implements their own patents. They sue to make money, no to protect their IP (however ridiculous the IP).
It is more about legal strategy than anything else.
No it's not. They sued Sammy because Sammy if *dumb fuck stupid* enough to dive in and make devices that actually infringe patents that *Steve Jobs* himself swore he would protect right on the 2007 keynote stage while announcing the first iPhone. "And boy, have we patented it." were his own words. Seriously, he said that on stage to the whole world.
And only one company is stupid enough to design a device that *is* just a copycat in enough ways to actually infringe on one of those patents.
there isn't a case for Apple here
Apparently, at least one german judge disagreed with you. So clearly you have no clue of how the German legal system work. A German judge *is* at a better place than you to assert such a statement, and he did.
Does Apple plays a smart game here? All bets are off. But they were very straightforward about their strategy, publicly, a long time ago.

Your post is appalling. But I'm sure you know that.
So, black people commit more crime than white. The real question is why? Genetics? Don't think so. Can you think of another reason?
Ah, you are AC, therefore you do not think. I forgot.
Have a nice day.
They sell hot potatoes on eBay? How do they stay hot until I get them?
With Nathalie Portman!
*realizes* Damn. Grits. It's hot grits, not potatoes...
You are correct, my bad. Two other SSH servers for windows (that appear to be free) :
http://mobassh.mobatek.net/ - never heard of it
http://sshwindows.sourceforge.net/ - Based on Cygwin but doesn't require a full blown cygwin install.
I'm not sure theft of an ipad is really a "crime".. more like a "favor" in my opinion.
No no, it is a crime. The damned Apple device sells like hot potatoes on eBay. Its theft represents big bucks lost !
I perfectly know how to recognize tongue-in-cheek humour done by males, thank you. Even humour can be bad and sexist.
And this kind of "casual sexism" is one of the things that deter women from the gaming sphere.

The rest is good though. A shame really.

b) work the same hours, but give everyone a basic income so that the jobless don't need jobs to survive?
The day you do that your unemployment rates are going to rise, until you stop. What is the point of giving someone money for basically no reward?
Ahhh, but the Incal is probabaly one of his dullest work. There is so many more stuff !
100% Green? What rubbish are you smoking these days?
So tell me, how are we going to get electricity on windless nights?
Given the comic that's displayed on the front of his website, I'd dare to say that he is not *directly* in Moebius's footsteps.
I didn't know he was that well known in the US. We'll certainly miss him.
So how many times has Anon attacked GE?
I'd argue that there is very little data on GE's website for Anon to brag about... And the fact that GE is in a business where you seldom make enemies.

Apple isn't perfect, neither is Samsung nor Google. I'm just arguing that every one of them should get credit where it is due. Nothing else.
As far as not buying iPhones because there are people buying iPhones with whom you disagree, I'm fine with that. But good luck with anything.
Apparently, a whole range of devs can't release a quality product on Android while they do just fine products on iOS. Coincidentally, it's all the devs that needs 3D Rendering.

You do sound angry and really have little clue.
