For staying true to the founding principles of this country, despite the corruption around him.
Those who would demonize him and prosecute him, have lost their way, and are the epitome of anti-Americanism, regardless of how that term is abused in the political arena.
my point is, it is possible to suggest that there is some sort of deeply rooted seasonal psychological fluctuation in humans that might explain why mid spring / april in the northern hemisphere is the time of crazies
The factory didn't make explosives, it only made fertilizers. It is stuff that like many chemicals can in some situations be explosive, no doubt.
fertilizers and explosives share a common trait:
lots of nitrogen
for the fertilizer, it's the bioavailability of nitrogen for plants that is the point
for explosives, the point is that nitrogen really, really wants to be N2 again
for explosives, AND fertilizer, when you pack a lot of nitrogen together in a chemical, and then heat it up, the nitrogen tends to figure out how to become happy N2 again, releasing a lot of energy in the process
a fertilizer factory is basically the same as an explosives factory, in regards to the existence of lots of chemical feedstock compounds containing nitrogen grumbling that it is not N2
the surprise intentional mass murder on innocent civilians outside of wartime for political reasons
however, the term has been so abused and overused and applied to so many completely unrelated subjects (my professor is a terrorist for scheduling the final when he did... my political opponent is a terrorist because of his fiscal policies... etc) that the word no longer has a coherent meaning
it's about hypothesizing how to defeat the NRA, the odious merchant of murder. its funding by gun manufacturers is the problem. like most problems in washington dc, it is about how the will of the people is being defeated by financial interests. with the NRA this phenomenon is especially odious because the results are actual deaths of thousands of citizens a year
the mouth breathing paranoids who support the NRA are of no consequence. they are a fringe group that is dying demographically
without financial influence in washington dc, guns would be more strictly controlled, as they should be in any sane society
i unfortunately must labor under the reality that the chances of meeting a female on slashdot are far lower than the chances of meeting a suitably motivated troll
i do have a problem where i derive some sort of perverse delight raining simple points of logic and reason on the obviously insane
i am still not sure if this makes me bad, like a bully, or good, like a bringer of light to a dark corner
but certain wackjobs of a certain mental posture make me itch in a part of my brain, and i have this compulsion to mercilessly torment them with simple obvious points which easily explode their bizarre blind spots and fragile castles in the sky
they don't often notice while they continue to vomit their WHARGARBBBLLLLL. but everyone else, like you, does. so it's entertaining at least
I also support abolishing IP in favour of more humanistic property laws as is (kind of) mentioned in this guy's sig. I do not support bitcoin.Maybe we should mate or something?
it does have traditional value. and civilizations have independently come to value gold. there's something psychological about the substance
but it is pretty useless for what these people want to use it for: a hedge against the end of civilization
because you're right, it has no intrinsic value. what can you do with gold? you can't eat it. and in anarchy, someone is more likely to shoot you for it than trade for it
if civilization is going to end, invest in gang membership and heavy weaponry. there's intrinsic value. then go kill the guy with gold if you really want the stuff so bad
you trust random assholes who owe nothing to you to always sacrifice self-interest for the good of all
LOL
but government, which exists to serve the people in democracies, and at least to serve stability anywhere else, are horribly untrustworthy on the topic of currency integrity
wtf? O_o
i go on the internet, i meet deluded kooks with serious disorders in the realm of trust

at one time, assange did a good think with wikileaks in this world
now he's just an entertainment "news" story figure
the potential for some conspiratards to see themselves as they talk about "the government"
because it's all the same paranoid bullshit
and then have to squeeze a lot milk out
that requires a lot of recuperation
i believe this basic biological difference is due some consideration with extra time off
i'm a belieber
it's a beiber
there's something about spring, and april particularly
there is such a thing as seasonal affective disorder
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seasonal_affective_disorder
my point is, it is possible to suggest that there is some sort of deeply rooted seasonal psychological fluctuation in humans that might explain why mid spring / april in the northern hemisphere is the time of crazies

don't even reply to such idiots
nothing justifies an attack like this
terrorism has a specific meaning
or at least it should
the surprise intentional mass murder on innocent civilians outside of wartime for political reasons
however, the term has been so abused and overused and applied to so many completely unrelated subjects (my professor is a terrorist for scheduling the final when he did... my political opponent is a terrorist because of his fiscal policies... etc) that the word no longer has a coherent meaning
which is the only reason north korea even exists
or try Glenn Beck's paranoid ranting... and selling gold during the commercials on Fox "News"
i really hope someone at slashdot is getting a kickback for the pumping going on here
for the rest of you: time your sell right!
4 million members is a tiny minority of the us population. why do you speak of this number with pride? due to demographics, it is in fact shrinking
why is such a tiny minority allowed to lord a status quo over the usa that is detrimental to so many lives?
don't answer that, it doesn't matter
demographics will mean membership is 3 million, then 2 million, etc
and the bulk of rational and sane citizens will move on without you long before that
enjoy obsolescence

the NRA is ostensibly about NRA members, but its obviously about the gun manufacturers
a gun you can print at home divides the agenda nicely and pits manufacturer against owner
thus also dividing the allegiances of the NRA
enjoy yourself

there are still ham radio operators in the world too
there many people who have fringe esoteric hobbies they are enthusiastic about
lucky for them, the ham radio operators have a little more realism and modesty about their role in the world
there's so many levels of abject stupidity in your statement. yes, the fed has no assets. LIKE THAT IS A FUCKING FUNCTION OF THE FED
it's a policy making body of a larger entity that is what really matters here. and no, you are right, they are not going to sell off PHYSICAL assets
(pounds head on table)
do you have any idea how fucking embarrassing you sound?
please. PLEASE. educate yourself. then form an opinion and speak on a subject
(sigh)
i do have a problem where i derive some sort of perverse delight raining simple points of logic and reason on the obviously insane

(facepalm)
why do people talk about and form opinions about subject matter they don't understand?
it's embarrassing

please, just stop. you know not a fucking thing about currency exchange. just stop. educate yourself. then form opinions
thank you
