  1. Re:We Need to Roll Back the PATRIOT Act on Google Releases Data On FBI Spying · · Score: 5, Interesting

    It would be interesting to start up a White House petition asking for the repeal of the patriot act. "Interesting" may be a poor choice of words on my part, the official response would probably be more amusing than interesting.

    Two fun White House petitions might be:
    - repeal the Patriot Act
    - dismantle Homeland Security

  2. Re:Total BS on How the U.S. Sequester Will Hurt Science and Tech · · Score: 1

    Then you should be furious that there was not even an attempt to cut waste, duplication of services, fraud, etc. They went right for you, to hurt you, to make a stupid political point.

    Makes you feel good, right? To know that you were meant to suffer so an ideology can be pushed and a narrative delivered?

  3. Re:a fancy way on Quadrocopters Throwing and Catching an Inverted Pendulum · · Score: 1

    I was so outraged by the thought of drones used against me and not against some foreigner that my trembling rage filled fingers hit the wrong keys.

  4. Re:a fancy way on Quadrocopters Throwing and Catching an Inverted Pendulum · · Score: 0, Troll

    Warning, blatant hypocrisy on display!

    Drones kill arabs in other countries? Hooray!

    Drones flying over my head in my own country by my own government?! Succession! Civil war!!! Militias!

  5. Re:Would you like some cheese with that? on Homeland Security Stole Michael Arrington's Boat · · Score: 1

    Any normal person would just have signed the fucking paperwork and got their boat.

    You sound like the sort of person who has always filed a 1040ez form for your taxes.
    Defending yourself in court or going through an audit takes time and money. There are also legal ramifications for falsifying legal documents. I wouldn't have signed to form either, it was incorrect and it was a potential ticking time bomb problem for him in the future.

  6. Re:Traps on Ask Slashdot: Starting From Scratch After a Burglary? · · Score: 1

    You keep using that word... I do not think it means what you think it means.

    I just heard that in my head after reading your post, my first smile of a fairly stressful day!

  8. "Ban Kids From Using Arcade Guns" on CT State Senator Wants To Ban Kids From Using Arcade Guns · · Score: 2

    Can we instead ban politicians from speaking?

    You left out "global warming"

  10. Re:You don't say? on Rich Countries Suffer Less Malware, Says Microsoft Study · · Score: 3, Informative

    I wouldn't expect my brother to charge me $60 per hour to fix a fucking computer either.

    Maybe not for the first few times, but after a while it just gets freaking old. That's when an hourly rate starts to sound appealing to me. Even family members need to learn and stop making the same stupid mistakes over and over.

  11. Obama worse than Bush on Leaked: Obama's Rules For Assassinating American Citizens · · Score: 0

    Obama and his administration are worse than Bush and his administration ever were.

    But please go ahead and attack me as a racist or whatever label you care to throw at me. Maybe you should send me to a re-education camp while you are at it.

  12. Re:Block calls with spoofed ID ... on FTC Gets 744 New Ideas On How To Hang Up On Robocallers · · Score: 0

    If I could simply tell the phone company that I'm not willing to accept numbers which don't match their origin, that would kill off all of the crap I get. And I don't care about the legitimate ones, because by masking their real phone number they're no better than the scammers.

    This. +1 pseudo mod point.

  13. Soon to be a felony on Real-Time Fact Checking With "Truth Teller" · · Score: 1

    USA lawmakers will soon pass a law making this a felony.

  14. Re:Provoking on Machine Gun Fire From Military Helicopters Flying Over Downtown Miami · · Score: 1

    Is an assault rifle really going to make a difference?

    There won't only be one. That is why confiscation is so important to them.

    Ignorant, undisciplined, slack-jawed rednecks

    Bigotry? How quaint.

  16. Forced relocation on Cities' Heat Can Affect Temperatures 1000+ Miles Away · · Score: 1

    Forced relocation from densely populated urban environments is the only solution to save the world from global warming.

    A wonderful side affect would the inevitable increase in self reliance. Two wins!

  17. Re:Screw the NDA on Student Expelled From Montreal College For Finding "Sloppy Coding" · · Score: 2

    They are not innocent if they are funding a corrupt administration.

    By this logic, no taxpayer in history was ever an 'innocent'.

  18. More taxes! on France Proposes a Tax On Personal Information Collection · · Score: 1

    Those Frenchies sure love their taxes.

  19. Re:I don't understand the "high cap" magazine ban on 3D Printable Ammo Clip Skirts New Proposed Gun Laws · · Score: 1

    Feral hogs and coyotes are what I use my AR for mostly.

    I'm against any form of "gun control" here in the US, unless these gun control idiots want to self regulate and ban possession in their own urban cesspools. If I lived in nightmare Chicago or some other giant urban utopia, I'd be terrified too. My AR's and AK's are non issues, they just aren't any big deal. My dad owns a Thompson, he had to jump through all the legal hoohaw to get it, but it was worth it. That beauty is so much fun.

    Recommendation: any new "gun control" law in the US applies in the city limits of urban cities of larger sizes. This is where most of the crime occurs.

  20. Re:Technology Misuse on 3D Printable Ammo Clip Skirts New Proposed Gun Laws · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't use any such magazine. Magazines are finicky beasts, usually when your firearm has a malfunction you first look to your magazine and/or ammo as the cause.

  21. Re:And still no death penalty for rape on Anonymous Helps Find Evidence In Gang Rape Case · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I would rather be raped 100 times before murdered.

    Says the man that has never been raped.

    If you equate the two, then you don't have any respect for life.

    I don't have respect for the life of a rapist. Rape is murder of the soul.

    Now if they wanted to trademark the full phrase "Apple App Store" or "The Apple App Store", more power to them. Otherwise too bad.
