    Ron Paul has repeatedly introduced legislation that would gut the United States Constitution. He does not want a democracy, he wants a theocracy.

    For a little fun, play "RoadKill Crack-The-Whip" See, you position your car window struts between the driver's head behind you and the roadkill, then, at the last second adjust your own car to miss, making them run right over it because they couldn't see. For a nice juicy 10 hours in the hot sun raccoon it's great fun. Sometimes the corps will even splash all over their undercarriage. Works for 2x4 stubs, hubcaps, potholes, anything on the road.

    That's his problem, and under his control. There is nothing in the world you can do to make the person behind you do anything different (aside from brake checking them, which is more dangerous for everybody involved for a number of reasons). He's probably going to jump out of your lane in a few seconds anyway, so ignore him.

    Settle in behind a truck. Problem solved. The idiots that jump from lane to lane know trucks are "slow" (even though they are somewhat, the drivers try to not slow down if possible and are usually in the easy flowing lane) despite the fact they end up at the same place at the same ramp light a lot of times. Then you can make whatever gap you want, don't have to brake as hard (because the truck just plowed through whomever it was and can't stop as fast as you can), AND you can get slightly better gas mileage from the slipstream sometimes.

    Consider going the speed limit for a while, and all this dick-size-comparison driving becomes pointless.

    Also note, the gap in front of you is an indication (to the tailgating moron behind you) that he needs to further charge up in hopes you will close the gap, thus making the both of you get to your destination (perhaps, still 100 miles away) faster.

    Driving should be a daily reminder that people are stupid. Forget about anybody else's safety but your own.

    Let them take the gap, just back off again. The gap-jumpers often get right back out when they continue their quest for that one lane that is free of traffic.

    There IS light at the end of the tunnel, we as a nation as a whole and singly just need to realize it is us. The country does not need "turning around", it needs a few adjustments in some very important areas that is all.

    Taking up arms in revolution is only legit if the means to change from within through the normal process are no longer valid. You can't just "disbelieve" in those means and gain validity for your revolution.

    You will gain no friends with that type of talk, you sound like an embittered old bible thumping douchebag with it.

    If it comes to revolution, you'll find me, a Constitutionalist (and therefore both conservatively and liberally bent) willing to pretend to take up arms with you, but then proceeding to shoot you in the back with them. Revolution would lose us the Constitution, bank on it. If we cannot change from within, then we have already lost the Constitution.

    They probably DID demand they be manufactured under the same (or at least tighter) rules. Someone in China decided to make more money and cut corners. You really can't put all the blame on Apple for this, there's the gap between US manufactured stuff and China manufactured stuff, and there the gap between China manufactured that follows the rules and laws and those that don't. The latter is much bigger, I suspect.

  16. Re:Great News! on Mass. Court Says Constitution Protects Filming On-Duty Police · · Score: -1, Troll

    The average person has more to fear and more interactions with a police officer than they do criminals. Police, can and do, destroy people's lives and kill them for no reason while expecting (and often getting) the backing of the state.

    We'd be better off on our own than we are with the current population of pigs.

    "Insure own safety"? Fuck you, "he's coming right at us! blam blam blam" is cowardice.

    Any police officer unwilling to face "real hardened criminals" should quit. There are better people out there for the job. Police make money for the prison industrial complex, they do not protect the population. That's a figment of your imagination.

    I am a gun toting conservative, and I hate cops for many reasons (this Slashdot article is an example) Your false cop-dick sucking faggot ass needs to stop implying you are a conservative, you are nothing more than a liar. Real conservatives don't give into authoritarians, which is what cops are when they don't follow the rules, to the letter, every time, every minute of the day.

    Read up on Common Law marriages a bit. There is quite a lot more to it than just living together. Mostly, it's presenting one another to everybody else as "married". You have to SAY you are married. Even if you mix finances for 80 years, live in a house you own together, raise kids, cats and grandchildren. You are not married unless you say you are. BOTH of you.

    DreamWeaver was leaps and bounds (even version 2) ahead of anything out there.

    For the most part, it STILL IS. The new versions of DW have stepped away from using JavaScript for everything, but then again, "behaviors" and menus should not be something done by a WYSIWYG editor.

    Granted the problems with the HTML remain, however if you haven't cleaned up FrontPage2000 code maintained by Oldie McHRmanager recently you should stop whining. I am pretty sure, that even when FP2003 came out Microsoft clearly didn't have any idea what CSS was.

    DreamWeaver is a great tool if it's used properly. Some features should be simply not used. Start in the code screen and go from there. That's all you have to do. Switch to the "Design" screen for content markup but make changes to any components in the code. Use whatever includes are possible, and use DW to make sample CSS and then copy it into your actual CSS file it works great.
