    But Mitnick could cause WWIII bu whistling in any pay phone in the USA. Why he was ever released is beyond me. He is a terrorist of the worst kind. How can anyone sleep knowing a man who can destroy the world in a matter of seconds if roaming the streets. Humanity was saved only by a man acting selflessly out of the hope of getting a good movie/book deal to alert us to these horrible potential crimes.

    Not for the terminally dumb, sarcasm in use.

    I just never say the "under god" bullshit as the pledge as it was created had no such statement. I am not stupid enough to believe the phrase "Under God" protects from the "Red Scare".

    "Do you create a law allowing police to shoot "terrorists" on sight without facing any inquiry afterwards? If you do, you should expect a fair number of non-terrorists to be shot, even if you have no record because the law prevents records from being made."

    Britain already made this mistake and they claim they wont change the "shoot to kill on suspicion" order they have given plain clothes officers. Trust me, if I was even remotely not white skinned and some crazy guys dressed in normal cloths came up to me with guns I'd probably run as well.

    America let the terrorists win long ago, a few weeks ago the Brits let them win.

    "The secret service pushing protesters away from where the president is giving a speech is the exact same thing. They are not allowed in because people want to hear Bush speak, not a bunch of college students chanting."

    but most of the time this is NOT what the SS is doing. From reports I am reading most of the time it's because of a bumper sticker or t-shirt. Anyone disrupting a speech like your example should be removed. Anyone sitting there quietly holding a sign or wearing a t-shirt should under no circumstances be touched by the SS and then thrown in jail.

    Also the whole free speech zones (an unamerican concept) thing is total BS. Keeping them out of site/hearing and out of mind makes it east to marginalize them and not think about the people. IMO only evil anti-american traitors want such things.

    Usually the events the free speech zones are set up to "protect" are located indoors so the protesters only have a few moments to be heard as people enter the events from the street. There is nothing disrupting about that.

    You have some ideas I agree with at the end of your posting, but you seem to not understand the point and concept behind protesting. It's not meant to be a love-in preaching to the choir. It's meant to let another group of people see/hear your differing viewpoint.

    The american Secret Service is living up to the more scary actions associated with the initials SS.

    For fucks sake a woman with a legitimate ticket to an even in the last election cycle wore a t-shirt saying "Protect our civil liberties". She was grabbed by the SS and then thrown in jail.
    She was not disrupting the event, she mearly wore a message that I cant see anyone sanely disagreeing with.

    This happened more and more often, with the SS now taking an increasing role in being thugs for the party in control. If ever a democrat gets into the white house, will the SS operate the same for democrats? I hope to gods not!

    Non of what the SS is doing is because people waring cloths with slogans or voicing differing views are apropriate to what there job is supposed to be.

    They should be concerned with protecting the president from bodily harm, not protecing the president from anyone who has a differeing POV, or is GWB so thin skilled he cant survive having anyone who is not a "yes man" around him.

    I went there Sunday from home (before I read this /. topic) and they had a big message on the fron page claiming they had shut down due to numerous threats of lawsuits and to go to some other generic bittorrent sites.

    I apolagize for not surfing porn site from work to verify that 2 days later they still were claiming to be shut down.

    Was it harder to be a total asshat then maybe take into account that someone may have had a different experiance from you.

    "Unlike most animals we can't just have a baby and then leave it in the wild and have it fend for itself so ideas like that were created, however to completely abide by it like a religious idea is totally missing the point."

    Last I checked most animals don't "just have a baby and then leave it in the wild to fend for itself".

    I'm sure the number of monogamous animal species is considerably lower then not, but I think it is not as rare as people make it out to be.

    Most american christians seem to have the view that the bible is the perfect word of god and we should literally live by it. Then they go and pick and chose what parts they want others to be forced to live by because they wouldnt want anything to get inthe way of their personal persuit of pleasure.

    As for our history with Native Americans we still ignore it to the best of our ability. We owe them billions and are breaking many treaties we had. The bureau of indian affairs is caught up in a lawsuit because they fucked over a lot of people and stole the money that was supposed to go to the people. These people ahve been suffereing due to not being able to pay bills or for lifes necessities.
