  1. Re:They're nuts but right on "Smart" Gun Seller Gets the Wrong Kind of Online Attention · · Score: 1

    Are you threatening me?

    Do you see an "or else" in my post? I'm not threatening anyone, although I'm sure you'd like that because then you could shout from the rooftops that the nasty gun owner made naughty typings at you. Do you honestly think that gun owners are "clearly moron rednecks?" If so then you're stereotyping.

    Stop selling them to idiots with mental problems

    I think that will kill the gun market right there.

    That fact that this got modded +5 insightful is disgusting and scary all at the same time. Just because you don't like guns doesn't mean you get to paint gun owners as idiots with mental problems. I know that being anti-2nd amendment is currently the fashionable thing to do in liberal circles, but don't dare start trying to make me look like an inbred hick just because I happen to like to target shoot.

  3. Go to hell, FCC on New White House Petition For Net Neutrality · · Score: 1

    So I guess this page on the FCC website doesn't actually mean anything then. I guess the bribes finally became large enough.

  4. Cheap Solar Power on 'Thermoelectrics' Could One Day Power Cars · · Score: 1

    Why not use this in place of expensive solar panels? Sun + focusing device + black metal + thermoelectric = cheap electricity.

  5. The intent is clear and obvious as-is on Retired SCOTUS Justice Wants To 'Fix' the Second Amendment · · Score: 1

    If you have a basic understanding of how the English language was written at that time, and an understanding of the definition of the word 'militia' at the time of the writing of the amendment, there is no debate. The writers wanted everyone who could serve in a militia to be able to have a firearm. Those who could serve in a militia were THE CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES. There is no reason to think any differently.

    What amazes me is how many of the same people who will state that the Bill of Rights clearly gives women the right to have an abortion, will twist the 2nd amendment around to say that citizens should not have guns. (Note I'm not trying to start a discussion on abortion, I'm just saying that if you can read abortion into the Bill of Rights, then gun ownership cannot be questioned.)

  6. Re:Militia, then vs now on Retired SCOTUS Justice Wants To 'Fix' the Second Amendment · · Score: 1

    Since Guns kill people, and modern guns kill a lot of people easily and are far easier to use, it's not a fair comparison to the press.

    You are using a strawman, stop it.

    Everything in your post is incorrect, geekoid. Every. Single. Thing.
    1. Until guns are able to sprout legs and pull their own trigger, they are not capable of killing anyone.
    2. No one compared killing people to freedom of the press. You did that all on your own.
    3. It's not a strawman unless you twist the op's words around, which you did.

    You're being disingenuous and inflammatory, stop it.

  7. Lies on 60 Minutes Dubbed Engines Noise Over Tesla Model S · · Score: 5, Insightful

    There is no way that was an editing error. Someone had to purposefully add those noises to the footage. Please.

  8. Re:Smelling more fishy every day. on MtGox Finds 200,000 Bitcoins In Old Wallet · · Score: 1

    Given this new development, the authorities should DEFINITELY be pressing criminal charges against him. It's becoming very obvious what actually happened here.

  9. The Problem on We Can Avoid a Surveillance State Dystopia · · Score: 5, Insightful

    The problem is that most 'normal' people aren't going to use things like Tor in order to not not be spied on by their own county, nor should they have to.

  10. Re:By a cop...let's not forget that fact on Man Shot To Death For Texting During Movie · · Score: 1

    I don't respectfully disagree...I wholeheartedly disagree and think you are a moron. The very fact that this guy felt that it was okay to shoot someone adds him to the long list of mentally unstable d-bags that shoot up schools, movie theaters and naval yards, regardless of if it was legal for him to have the gun there or not. A "good guy with a gun" wouldn't even entertain the thought of shooting someone else for such a reason.

  11. Well, at least... on White House Reportedly Dismissing Key Healthcare.gov Contractor · · Score: 1

    They didn't get any of the taxpayers money before leaving. What a joke.

  12. Not New on ABC Kills Next-Day Streaming For Non-Subscribers · · Score: 1

    This is not new. Fox has been doing this for a while to try to push everyone to get a Hulu Plus membership.

  13. Re:Land of the Free! on Illinois Law Grounds PETA Drones Meant To Harass Hunters · · Score: 1

    So basically you're blaming the gun lobby for allowing terrorists to go into the woods undisturbed. Riiiiiight.
