"You don't see because the media doesn't report it,"
Hmm, no.
" you are the audience of the American Media, "
Doubt it...
"they don't need to report this, they don't have to report it and you don't see it. "
Irrelevant.
"If you really want to see go to these countries and go down to the ghettos and look for these organizations the grass root orgs that are actually doing the fighting. You will be surprised. but I bet you don't even want to see you are contend with what you hear and see on CNN. "
CNN does'nt suck as much as you seem to imply. In fact, they set a standard as far as journalism is concerned.
"A driver exceeding the speed limit is in violation of the law. "
* Car on a train.
* Someone is having a heart attack. They need to get to the hospital, fast.
* Said driver is a doctor in an emergency call.
* The car is on a closed, private track.
* Driver being chased by dangerous space aliens.
I don't know if those exceptions are specifically legal in your area, but they clearly should anyway.
Next thing we know, one day, they will add a line somewhere in their 45 page contract reading "Farting is prohibited in our cars. Should you fart, you owe us a $493049 fine."
"To say that a child at the age of 11 has a right to view everything on the internet as a statement against censorship is cutting off your nose to spite your face. "
When I was 11 (17 years ago), I watched & read everything I wanted -- including (and not limited to) porn. And my parents did'nt know about it. And so did all my friends.
Many kids if not most kids do lots of stuff their parent will never know.
Some people makes you wonder if they've ever been kids...
Not sure about the name, it's something like "phase conjunction radar". I read about this one in a popular science magazine something like 15 years ago, it was described as being sort-of secret research being done in Europe.
Don't know if it was bullshit, but here's what I remember: it's not a single spot radar, but instead an array of transmitters/receivers.
By analyzing the variation of phase in the signal from one transmitter to several receivers, a complex program was able to detect anything, especially since so-called stealth planes work by not reflecting radio waves in the right direction, but could do nothing about altering the phase of a wave passing through.
The main hurdle at the time was the processing power needed, and the amount of data to transmit, something that has been improved (obviously!) tremendously since then. But I've never heard of it since then, and found nothing on the web about this. Does that ring a bell to anyone?
Stick your feminazi "moral" up your anus. What you're talking about is not "moral". Softcore ads has'nt killed anyone. And before you serve us with that unproven, unfounded meme... rape existed before porn, and rape exists where porn is hard to find... like Iran.
Moderate me down, I'm not politically correct.
"As if Lara Croft isn't enough, try reading a gaming magazine in public"
It's not the magazines or the ads that are a problem; it's your lack of balls and pride that prevents you from standing up against the stupid moralization of your environment.
"I'd LOVE to be indepedent and self-sufficient... however I'm just a dumb bitch who reads trash women magazines, and since I can't do things by myself, I live through my boyfriends, I blame them for what I can't accomplish myself, it's never my fault, it's always boys', in other words...
I'M A VICTIM!!!!!!"
I wish I was trolling, unfortunately that's really what I think.
Men did'nt evolve from "monkeys". However, monkeys and men evolve from the same specie.
Now, as for christians, muslims and believers of all types... I find it hard to believe that they've evolved at all. So many of them seem to be stuck in a perpetual middle or stone age.
New laws which regulate economy? You must be kidding. The single most threatening phenomenon to a free market currently is not laws or governments -- it's monopolies.
Fuck your libertarian bullshit; what is restricted here is nobody's freedom. No citizen NEEDS to get that kind of information. No citizen CAN get as much information as to fall under those regulations.
Ultra big corps, however, do. Big corps have money, power, exercise coercion when they need to, just like gov'ts.
Therefore they are as dangerous as gov'ts as far as freedoms are concerned -- with one difference: you can't vote them off, unless you own a significant stake in them.
They asked me to sign a contract a bit like this (but with completely unrelated clauses) in my previous job. I said "sure", never signed it. They asked me again, said I had it at home, that I would bring it back. I've never signed it.
Actually... it's not THAT bad. Comparing it to everything else around, the situation is bearable. It used to be a complete mess one year ago, where they were technically incompetent.
Now, it's almost good! The prices have decreased, and while there is lots of chaotic situations where the bandwidth and latency suffers terribly, it compares favorably to sucky leased lines providers (ever tried Easynet? don't).
There is a reason for it. They have (close to) no competition... now. But they know it's coming and have to put a lot of effort into it.
I had to relinquish my DSL connection as I am moving, and trust me, I understand how good it was, now.

Sex with a 16 year old is not pedophilia.
By the way: read the book. It's really good science fiction.

I am decidedly AGAINST abortion because I believe it is murder of an innocent. (What has the baby done wrong? NOTHING.)
I am in favor of (freedom of) abortion because I believe the foetus is not a human being (yet).
Which you just demonstrated: if it can't do bad, and can't do good, it can't be a human being.
Religion makes me fart.
