for NON-Violent crimes, I absolutely agree that their rights should be reinstated, even for firearms. I would also expand that definition to include small time drug offenses, if it isn't already.
But I'm afraid for someone who was guilty of assault, rape, murder, etc. has already amply shown that they can't control themselves, and shouldn't have the right to own a gun reinstated.
to some degree the redundancy in the translation codons is there because the mating tRNA isn't always an exact match.
We like to think of it as a nice clean process, but in reality it's a VERY messy process involving lots of fuzzy factors and probabillities. The way that the ribosome works is by having the tRNA "crash" randomly into the opening. If it's the correct tRNA it will bond to the DNA and stay there. Ones that don't fit are repelled by molecular forces. There is such a small difference between the bonding potential of GUU and GUA that if they were assigned to different amino acids there would be many many more mistakes, resulting in miscoded proteins.
redundancy in wetware is usually there for a reason!

They're using an triode electron gun to melt the powder. Trouble is that most of the items needed aren't in wide use. They have made great progress though.
You do have the option of getting a new license, but you have to pay for it! In order to purchase a firearm it is way easier to get a new license, and it only cost $15.
This was the reason that on little boy the bombardier practiced for days arming and disarming the bomb. The original plan was to arm it before takeoff by installing the powder charges. He was terrified of the plane going down and the bomb taking out the airfield and base. He spent a lot of time on the ground practicing climbing down into the bomb bay, removing the cover, inserting the charges and reinstalling the cover. For his efforts he died young of cancer.
The human race has had constant war for several hundreds of years. There has always been someone on this ball of dirt fighting with someone else on the same ball of dirt. Usually its over that same dirt.
The US has been in nonstop conflicts somewhere in the world since WW2 at least, if not longer.
Lets get real, espionage has not stopped war, nothing will. Maybe it's mitigated some of the damage from them, but even that is a hard sell.
Espionage is just another type of war, one where the casualties aren't nearly as apparent, and the objective is information.
"things like the 19k gun suicides" that your "common sense" measures WOULD DO NOTHING to stop.
It only takes ONE bullet in ANY gun to take a life. By eliminating a certain style of gun you aren't necessarily going to stop the deaths.
I'll go for the low hanging car analogy: Sports cars and motorcycles cause a disproportionately large number of deaths. Let's make the streets safer and ban sports cars and motorcycles! Sound ludicrous? While thats just like banning a certain type of firearm.
Cars and motorcycles with higher horsepower cause more deaths. Theres no reason that ANYONE should need a car with more than 4 cylinders! Let's put a capacity limit on engines! Number of cylinders, displacement, horsepower, take your pick! Sound ridiculous? This is just like setting limits on the number of rounds a magazine can hold.
Also note that neither one of these laws would probably end up saving a single life. Stupid people are going to do stupid things regardless of what sticks you give them to hit themselves with.
And if you want to put your expectations into law don't get pissed when others do the same. Drug laws, Marriage laws, Car laws, etc etc.
Please mod me and parent as off-topic, because that's what this is!
How about we just fry the damn things with an electro magnet?
"what, destruction of private property? i was simply disposing of my magnet! besides, said private property was abandoned in a public place!"
"With the introduction of softer, heavier alloys for non-toxic shot, there is no legitimate reason to be using lead shot"
Except for the fact that these new "green" bullets are 400% more expensive than their lead counterparts.
Gee, we can't disarm the population so lets make bullets REALLY FREAKING EXPENSIVE so that they can't use them anyways.
except that IN SPITE of the lead ban AND a 92% compliance with it as reported by Dept. fish and game, LEAD LEVELS HAVE CONTINUED TO INCREASE in the condors. Using the scientific method, once one source has been eliminated but the effect continues to grow the cause is probably something different!
"it's still funneling people into Google's web suite."
And that my friends is all that Google should care about. It's their stated mission for Android, so it's a win-win situation. Google purchased Motorolla for PATENTS, not because they wanted to start making money selling phones. If Google is smart they will use the Moto phones to roll out new features that users want but manufacturers are leary of. It should work well for them to use that brand to set a baseline Android experience, much as they've done with the nexus series.
Hell, if they haven't complained about amazon building their own app store (and conveniently leaving Play out) I really don't think that they care much about what direction Android takes, as long as it continues to use Google search and display Google Ads.
REMEMBER ALWAYS: It is the job of the police to CONVICT people. In general, they don't really care if you're guilty or not. They get atta' boys for putting people behind bars, nothing else. Give them an excuse and they will put you in prison, and get a commendation for doing so. They are not on the hook if they make a mistake or fudge the numbers, so don't expect them to act responsibly. They will pretend to be your friend, they will play the hero, they will mindfuck you, all to get you say something wrong.
The only person that you should ever talk to is your lawyer. It is his job to keep you OUT of jail so that you can pay his bills. Let your lawyer answer all of the questions, I don't care if you weren't even born when it happened, let your lawyer do the talking. A few thousand bucks in lawyers fees is well worth the heartache averted.
There's no such thing as a simple question, especially coming from a cop.
i know that you were trying to be funny, but this is an active area or research that has already had way too many breakthroughs. Google "terminator genes" sometime, it will keep you up at night.
We have COX business and have been very impressed. While the speeds that they offer are lower, i am much more likely to get the speed promised because my traffic is prioritized at the switch. I have never waited more than 24hrs for a tech to show up and fix the problem, and they've always been very nice on the phone with short wait times.
I have also had no hassle whatsoever using netflix or torrenting, and have no evidence of any kind of traffic shaping.
All that combined with a static IP to run my personal website on, it's well worth the extra that i pay.
A guy with a rifle is not a threat to any modern Army..
I agree that 1 guy with a gun isn't going to win a war. Hell, even a hundred. 1 guy can however cause a lot of chaos and confusion, and even shut down entire states for days.
Remember that it was just a few guys with rifles that had law enforcement and the general public shitting their pants every time that a loud noise was heard. Dorner had one of the largest police forces on the planet walking on egg shells. The DC sniper had most of new england scared shitless.
um, you could already make a pretty scary shotgun out of a piece of iron pipe, a cap and a nail. google "zip guns"
sometime.
really it's a non issue, most of these homemade guns are pretty useless, including this 3d printed one. With a lifetime measured in tens of rounds, it really isn't all that special.
and as always, you still get the same time in the federal pokey if you get caught doing something naughty with it.
Who do you think the stealth bomber runs are done to impress? CHINA!!!
Sure, Kim Jong Un might know about them and use them as propaganda, and it might scare him a little that he can't see the things on radar, but my guess is that we're really trying to impress China. I'm sure that the island is right at the edge of their early warning radar coverage, and if we slip in and drop the payload without raising an alarm (with a bomber that we designed in the 70's no less...) China will sit up and take notice.
The Chinese are the only ones in a position to twist Kim's arm hard enough to make him stop acting like a four-year-old, the Chinese are the ones that we are trying to scare.
whoosh.
ethanol adulterates (dilutes) gasoline in a bad way much as sawdust has been purportedly used as a filler to dilute the meat content in hot dogs
(to very ill effect) in order to save money.
the comparison falls short though because ethanol is arguably MORE expensive than gasoline, we just delude ourselves into thinking that it's better for the environment.
it'll never happen. The desert ecosystem is just as protected as any forest land, the greenies will never let the government turn over the first shovel full of dirt. I've seen it happen way too many times locally in so-cal.

Pepper spray is a panacea for the paranoid. There are about 3 people out of ten that it does not incapacitate or slow down.
