I bet if you refused to obey the no-smile order, then sued then when they refused to issue a license, you could force them to do so. Of course, it would cost you thousands of dollars. It's much easier to just not bother applying. Just drive. It's what probably 10% of the population does now. If you drive a mediocre plain jane car and don't drive outright reckless then you will never have to live in fear of being pulled over; it's only the red Mustangs and expensive SUVs they target.
No, I'd prefer to live in a free country, like our Founding Fathers intended. Do you think they would have accepted ubiquitous mandatory government licensing?
c. gets you done for "contempt of court", so that's the stupid thing to do. You do what the judge said, or you fight it legally, but ignoring it gets you into trouble.
Which is why we need more people to do it. The way you stand up to bullies is to fight them, not cower meekly.
In Alabama there's no hardship license whatsoever. Suspended? Revoked? Sorry- you're not even legally eligible for a hearing.
In Michigan they do have one, but they also have a "legal system" that fines you for your "crime", then after that's "taken care of" they turn around and mails you a letter from the state claiming you own them money too. ("Driver responsibility fee.") If you don't pay they take your license and then threaten to go after your bank accounts too.
How about data on the fact that in a country where guns have proliferated (legally or not), there are more gun crimes contrasted with a country in which guns have not proliferated?
How about I'm not giving you my guns, and if you try to take them I'll shoot you in the face? How much more clear can I make this? Fuck off with your gun control.
Most coding books these days have an online presence where you get the actual source code, and the text itself just points you to it.
Which is idiotic. Why not just put it on a damn CD, or hell, a cheap disposable thumb drive? If someone is paying $150 for the god damn book, why can't they get the same courtesy people used to get 10-15 years ago with $20-$30 books?
Perhaps it was just a small run book for one specific class at a specific school. So while the licensing fee for copyright clearance could be nominal, it might still be a lot of paperwork to be done, and a prohibitive cost for a book that might sell 60 copies a semester...
You're missing the point. Why publish a book with no photos? What is the fucking point?
Since the kids have to go to the web anyway to see the images, just turn the book into a webpage, with WORKING LINKS, and force each student to pay $180 to access the website for a semester.
Or better yet, download all the images off bittorrent for free, put them on a CD with html, and give it to them free. Or even better, print the book with these pictures and just give it away free to all who enroll in class. In completely unrelated news, some other miscellaneous university fine or fee just went up $20-30.
Want to beat a bully? The first step is to stop bowing down to him.
In that case, let's just throw all of science out of the books, because all of these scientists are bought and paid for tools of the establishment.
Better yet, try relying your own experience for a change instead of believing whatever horseshit the establishment wants you to, which is for their benefit of course, not yours or mine. Who benefits more from locking up cannabis smokers--society, or the prison industrial complex?
Hormonal imbalances are a major cause of weight gain. If your hormones are significantly out of balance, you aren't going to achieve a healthy weight even if you practically starve yourself.
Actual "hormone imbalances" are rare. In the U.S., "hormone imbalance" is nothing more than an excuse for fat asses to excuse themselves for not getting off their fat asses and stop stuffing their faces with food. Funny, I spent a year overseas interacting with many people from many countries. Every time you saw a fat ass, guess what their nationality is? White, pasty American. Never once saw an Afghan or an Estonian with a "hormone imbalance."
Reputable facts? You fucking moron, you don't have a clue what you're talking about. I have extensive experience with cannabis. I have "stopped" and "started" various times for various reasons. All those "potential symptoms" you listed are horseshit. Try quitting cigarettes some time, you stupid fuck, (like I did) and get back to me about "withdrawal symptoms." LOL. You are nothing more than a tool of the establishment, spouting their lies 24/7 from your high horse while sniffing at those who aren't as "enlightened" as you. What a stupid, ignorant, selfish prick.
Why is this "they" you're talking about "accepting these facts" about cannabis? Oh yeah, the AMA, which is a bought and paid for tool of the establishment. At least they're getting paid to lie. The only payment you'll receive is to be bent over the table and fucked in the ass repeatedly, after the ever-increasing Federal bullies have successfully jailed everyone else and now needs someone else to pick on.

Oh, and Welcome.....to the WORLD OF TOMORROW!!!
It's not.
In fairness, most other languages-du-jour are shit as well. JS is just a particularly piss poor example of a programming language.

Coward
If I'm cuffed and stuffed into a police cruiser for a non-crime, it's not the "wealthy and powerful" who is putting the cuffs on me.

This country is run by criminals.

In what universe is that true?
Seems legit.

My God, the world has really gone to shit.
However, what if, in order to graduate, you must pass the class? And in order to pass the class, you must buy the textbook?
....and it costs $2000 just to take one class? Wait....why the fuck am I wasting my time and money at this school again?

It was a comparison to Nazi Germany....which is growing more and more apt as the months pass.

I'm high right now, you dumb shit. Logic fail

....which is amazing in glass. Never seen it in a can though.
I for one am shocked!

As all addictive substances tend to rob the addicted of rational thinking (insert political comment here) and cause an irresistible craving
Sure, if the addict is a weak-minded piece of shit. Others have control over their own destinies.

That's called "projection"
No, he was right on target.
