All they're trying to prove is that America isn't stupid. Gee, now what would have given the rest of the world that assumption?
Socio-economics should not be put into grading. It doesn't matter if you are poor or rich, it depends on how much you are taught. I know lots of students from the middle-class who are smart outside the class, but unwilling to do the work. I know plenty of "poor" kids who have come to school, straight As but unable to tell left from right.
Our educational system is based on rote memorization. In colleges, they teach you critical thinking. Both are completely different trains of thought and cannot be measured in numbers.
The answer is that the Constitution, for all the protections it had given us, isn't worth a damn today with concerned parents and corrupt politicians. I'm not saying there weren't any back then, but there sure as hell are more of them now and want the Constitution to be "Living" document, being cut, torn up, sewn, stitched, and zombified to suit the needs of the people at that moment in time.
Nationalism? Nah, we're a police state that's a beacon to those Communist nations, bent on proving that we are God.
The barrier to switch is NOT nil. If your network of friends is on Facebook then switching means losing all your contacts or persuading them (and all their friends ad infinitum) to switch. People have invested in the service, and even if it's really shitty and people grouse about it, they'll stick with it.
I think that "invested" might not be the best word to use at this point. When I deactivated my account, all they ever did was log in and that was it. They never replied to any messages, they posted shit in their updates, meanwhile they maintain they are working. So, why are they on Facebook if work is so demanding?
I'm jaded to killings. You only notice more because the media is highlighting more of them to get attention because they're vampires that feed off the fear of the populace.
Calm down. I didn't mean to get mad at you. Generalization is not really great and I'm tired of having to be on the shit list on every government-backed promotion that aims to rid the internet, violent games, and violent media.
That is stereotyping and I don't like it. I'm a young white male. I know other young white males who play very violent video games. They spend their weekends working at a crappy job. Yet, they don't have a single violent tendency.
Except emissions fly up into the air and get moved around the earth by the jet streams. What you are referring to is localized which has crap effect on the world, but does majorly affect the ozone layer

Could this be used against Facebook and Instagram?

I think it's to reduce the complaints for how crappy his service is.
Is there even a difference between trademark and copyright? Both seem to go hand-in-hand.
Same reason Mickey Mouse isn't public domain yet. Copyright gets an extension when it nears the end.
Reddit is terrible. I'd suicide too if I was co-owner of that crap.
I think your sarcasm renderer needs some fine tuning.
And now it's contaminated so future research will now read false-positives for life.
If you're really his boss, kudos to you.
Procrastination is the Number One Productivity Impeder (Not sure if right word, but spellcheck isn't getting me)
Dammit! I just got out of there!
It's under Federal Protection. FBI can't touch it.
Yeah, I lost out on that joke. Enjoy the Mod points.
Then I'll be part of the obese demographic. Hooray, I trade one shit for another.
I'm in Chicago, so shootings are fairly common

Doesn't mean he can't be an activist.

Sorry if I scared you a bit.
Think they'll be mad if I put Pride and Prejudice up that it causes suicidal thoughts in young women?

Statistics are a bitch.
Where's Jack Thompson? Shouldn't he be there conducting it?
Damn, missed my chance to kill him. Maybe another day, AR-50.
No shit, sherlock.
They punish you if you take a sick day, they punish you if you come in sick. Do they expect you to be 100% until you're dead?
