It is obvious he was resisting arrest, the real problem is the lack of reason for the arrest. If they charge him what will it be with? A charge of resisting by itself won't stand (what was I being arrest for? == instant dismissal). On the other hand the cops arrested the kid without any sort of reason (He asked a loaded question, he must ber a turrerest), violated his right to free speech and tased him (Battery anyone?).
A sucker is born every minute after all.
Anyways the fact the Nigerian Email scam is still taking people should be enough to prove not all people dismiss mass mailings.
The only effective weapon against the Angels are the Evas (short for "Evangelions"), NERV's enormous cyborg robot-suits piloted by psychic teenagers.

This may have been posted before, but anyways.
SCEA is Sony Computer Entertainment of America. They do not get a cut of anything sold by sony in Japan. Region encoding is an attempt to ensure the bottom line for the local division.
True it is ridiculous because it prevents consumers here from seeing lots of good games only released elsewhere. Those who would import games to begin with are a minority, a vocal minority but a minority nontheless, as has been proven many times before big business doesnt care about minorities, and only about $.
I believe a large part of the reasoning on the part of SCEA is that because the FBI and its raids last weekend have alot of people scared it can take advantage of the situation and force its will upon those that could possibly undermine its bottom line.

Spammers are stupid AND Ralsky is a spammer
:(
=>
Ralsky is stupid
But not all stupid people are spammers, so how do you work it in reverse to end up with an equivalence without taking ralsky to be a spammer?
Similarly not all people who violate the law say it would be stupid to do so.
Erg, analysis classes are corrupting me
