In connection to Snowden he said that? Or are you starting a different discussion?
And let's not go to RED vs BLUE shit stinks less, either. One's not any different than the other, and if nothing else, recent developments should've proven that to you.
"Countless times per day I'm removing my smartphone from my pocket simply to check..."
So now you'll strap an indicator to your wrist that notifies you _every time_ you get a text or email, which will require you removing your phone from your pocket _every time_ to read such message (unless you are going to do so on a 1.5" display) and to eventually reply such message. So instead of removing your phone once every hour,you'll do so _every time_ such indicator goes off.
On top of it you'll be recharging such indicator once every couple of days.
I'm sorry, but that just sounds silly and counter productive.
"My bet is Apple has a wealth of ideas..."
I'm pretty sure, as there are several such devices on the market already.
"We are big, bad, mean motherfuckers so of course we do this and if you don't like it go fuck yourself or we nuke you"
I live in the US, listened to and read plenty of news/reactions about this and have yet to hear the utter BS you made up. Couldn't be further from the truth.
Snowden is Hot Potato. Agree with him or not, there's no country in their right mind who would want him on the premises. He was asked by HK/Chine to leave, and I'm pretty sure Russia can't wait to get him on a plane.
Unless he also has information about Russia (or whatever country he's in) and they find out. In which case he'll be in some pretty Hot Water.
Freedom of speech doesn't allow incitement to crime, fighting words, true threats, child pornography, etc... Also, what he wrote might be funny to you, not to parents of kids going to school in his neighborhood.
It's nice that you can be arrested for breaking the law.
You think he gives a shit? The only thing on his mind is trying to find the right ocean front property, the fleet of sports cars, the private jet that the $$$$$$$$ from the music industry/movie studios will buy him.
This whole case was about gay marriage. The outcome was a great victory for gay marriage. So what is FOX supposed to say? Look at any other news network. All say it's a great victory for gay marriage. Some say it's an historic victory for gay marriage. Look at huffpo: DOUBLE RAINBOW.
"At this point, anyone who doubts that [put any news network here] is putting extremely heavy spin and lies into their "news" is just not paying attention. It's an entertainment network, not a news network."
I completely agree with you, but I don't think it's possible in the real world where there are divorces, disputes, abuse, especially that of children. At that point you can't leave the legal system and government out of it.
So what you are saying is Rachel Maddow and Chris Matthews leave their political views out of their unbiased shows? Or their bias is just more preferable to you?
I don't get it. How is saying that this was a victory for gay marriage some sort of twisting the news? It _is_ a victory for gay marriage. That's what the whole thing was about. In fact it sounds like they gave you more info, because what does "DOMA ruled unconstitutional" mean to most people?
A twist would've been FOX saying that the ruling hurts traditional family values. Or that we are all going to die.
Your safest bet would be to stay home. As soon as you enter the US, all your digital devices automatically hook up to a special network run by the US government and transmit all the information about your digital media, your street drug use, sexual behavior, thoughts you thought or ever thought about thinking and if there's any red flags you'll be arrested as soon as the border agent scans your I-94 form.

Oh come on now. And instead he went to the complete trainwreck of a spam house?
No way he was leaving on his own. Not with product launch in 5 months.
It all depends. If republicans do it, they are killing our economy by sending jobs overseas. If democrats do it, it's a genius move to lower spending.

ROFL. Wish I had mod points for you.
Corporate greed and corruption at it's finest, and all done in the name of "for the education of our kids".
Shame on Apple. Shame on Pearson. And shame on the people who got paid off for this at LA Unified.
Except if this 18 year old teenager would've done something crazy, your post would read:
Someone reported his threats on FB to the police, but they completely ignored it. Your tax dollars at work here people. NOT!
You should read up about freedom of speech resrtictions.
Freedom of speech doesn't allow incitement to crime, fighting words, true threats, child pornography, etc... Also, what he wrote might be funny to you, not to parents of kids going to school in his neighborhood.

So be it.
Great analogy. In that case you would be just as unfairly suggesting the wife's guilt and casting the husband as a victim.
Now the only reason you would do that is:
1. you live next to your brother
2. Barbera's with your boyfriend
3. Barbera's super hot and with a neighbor other than you
To circumvent situations like this the expression "in all fairness" was born. So you could say:
My neighbor's wife Barbera is cheating on her husband, but in all fairness John is seeing someone on the side, too.
(You would also avoid calling one person a "dirty cheating hooker", without finding a matching expression to the other party.)
Seriously?
They were fighting for their rights. A legal fight. A legal battle. Ever heard any of those expressions?
This whole case was about gay marriage. The outcome was a great victory for gay marriage. So what is FOX supposed to say? Look at any other news network. All say it's a great victory for gay marriage. Some say it's an historic victory for gay marriage. Look at huffpo: DOUBLE RAINBOW.
Please, take your tinfoil hat off.
And we both know there is a reason for that.
I would not doubt that if you wrote:
"At this point, anyone who doubts that [put any news network here] is putting extremely heavy spin and lies into their "news" is just not paying attention. It's an entertainment network, not a news network."
> Yes I know it sounds tin foil hatty.
You're right. It is.
> I for one want the government out of marriage.
I completely agree with you, but I don't think it's possible in the real world where there are divorces, disputes, abuse, especially that of children. At that point you can't leave the legal system and government out of it.
> If 2 or 3 or 10 consenting adults wish to share their lives, so be it.
Nothing stopped adults from sharing their lives yesterday and nothing is stopping them today. But you kind of lost me past 2.

"Transparency and Open Government" said Barack Obama.
He also explains what that means here.

"So the [put any country's name here] government uses taxpayer money to lie to the people... there's a surprise!"
