I don't even like beer much, and there's some really good beer from my neighbor 25m away who makes his own, to a brewpub only another 50m further (I have a path through a stand of trees to the back end of the brewpub)
And we're one up on Colorado. No sales tax on beer here:)
I understand your theoretical argument, but the 5th Amendment is what it is, and it's simply an enumerated right, not a granted right. It doesn't matter whether or not anyone thinks it's a good thing, the whole point to them is that they are yours no matter what anyone else thinks of them; if they can be taken away, they are not rights. No matter how moral the purpose may be, taking them means they are not rights.
Abuse == Liberty "The only freedom which counts is the freedom to do what some other people think to be wrong. There is no point in demanding freedom to do that which all will applaud. All the so-called liberties or rights are things which have to be asserted against others who claim that if such things are to be allowed their own rights are infringed or their own liberties threatened. This is always true, even when we speak of the freedom to worship, of the right of free speech or association, or of public assembly. If we are to allow freedoms at all there will constantly be complaints that either the liberty itself or the way in which it is exercised is being abused, and, if it is a genuine freedom, these complaints will often be justified. There is no way of having a free society in which there is not abuse. Abuse is the very hallmark of liberty." -- unknown to me, wouldn't mind knowing who.
I 3 my 82 Lolvo. And I've driven the S80. Scared the crap out of my passengers, wanna do it again sometime up and down Germantown Road in Portland; my boss told everyone at work one night "Dude can drive the fuck out of a Prius" (They're not bad cars, they can actually move):)
Sure, there's way faster cars, but not many can an ordinary person get ahold of one. The S80 is my current favorite.
So you're saying we should teach this in schools at an early age, like me when the US was "converting' to metric, and we were taught very little about Imperial measurements? I'm 46 and all that did was cause me confusion as everyone was using the old style, that I was barely taught.
If you have parliament, I doubt you're a democracy. Democracy is when everyone gets a vote -- on everything, instead of representatives. The purpose of parliament is to *bypass* democracy.

And that's HER fault. Not Chrome's. It's all for shit if the users won't follow basic security procedures.
Those two are not mutually exclusive :)
Not use foul language? On the Internet? How will I Tweet?
Switch to fowl language?
I'm too chicken-shit to do that...
Indeed!
So I imagine as these people think, the guy who coded the printing presses' code owns the copyright to all the books printed?
Or a date :)
If they go far enough, we'll put it in red & lead for them...
Oregon does beat it :P

Whose opinion would they give other than their own...?
I'd have to be the Bi Mart :)
Thanks for the info! I wouldn't have known that.
Let me know when you've got your public registration (license plate) tattooed on your face....
Yup, that's Oregon.

-- Amateur Radio Operator, and you're right, I probably could. But I've learned it's best to avoid prison, no?
Ah, she thinks we build up a passivation layer. Explains why no new knowledge gets into her head...
Yeah, but you can only take one picture before you have to replace it. Oh wait, it's 9. No, no, it's 600 shots. Or was that 300?

Yes, because he'd be limited to one account. I'm sure his family would let him use theirs. Just open 100 new Netflix 30-day trials.
And how do you effectively plan to do this? Control file-sharing? That worked real well for the movie industry, the music industry...
I'd say our freedoms can be measured by our ability to get rid of the government if needed...

Making it illegal means they can put you in prison AFTER you've killed someone. How did we go so long with out this???
