Mostly because they are in desperate need to justify their budget. They've never caught a terrorist, so they're trying to catch other people doing illegal things before they get shut down for wasting tax payer dollars.
Last I checked, the president's armed guards (or Rosie O'Donnell's, or anyone else for that matter) aren't carrying military style assault rifles or hand guns with extended clips. If you haven't read the articles that he's proposing, stop spouting off about things you don't know enough about.
Sadly I don't think cable will die off. The fact that they have all the redundant crap repeated over and over is because people watch it. If they didn't, they wouldn't keep making it. So I don't think you should hold your breath until "Teen Mom", "Toddlers in Tiaras" and "That Other Trainwreck Of a Show" stop airing.
I don't claim to understand why people like that crap, but based on the fact that it keeps coming out, its apparent they do.
It would appear so. And telcos always pass that savings onto the consumer... *cough*
It could place providers in the position of requiring warrants for all law enforcement requests.
Wouldn't that reduce the labor/financial burden on the telcos?
The telcos must be acting at the request of politicians, in exchange for good treatment by the politicians on behalf of the telcos on other unrelated matters.
The fact that he has ANY injury means that his story adds up.
No, it doesn't. The fact that he has an injury only means that there was a fight. It doesn't mean he's telling the truth, and to think that it does mean that would be idiotic.
but on it's most underlying level, an unarmed boy was shot by a large adult with a gun and an arrest wasn't made.
Lets be clear... It was an unarmed boy that the man went to the effort of following down the street against the express suggestions of the 911 dispatcher that was telling him he should not follow him. He WENT TO EXTRA EFFORT to follow the boy and shoot him.
I was super excited when I found out someone had done this for tron... Until I realized it was actually the old qbasic nibbles or worm game.
This is neat and all, but its not tron. Its not even the tron light cycle game since you play by yourself. Oh well.
I buy almost all of my blu-ray disks on sale for $5-$10 each. I check deals.woot.com a lot and watch for low sale prices. I did the same thing for dvds. I think the only movie I paid full price for in the past few years was the 20th Anniversary Princess Bride.
Yup. Now all the fanboys see Apple for what they are.
I just laugh at all the comments over the years. Every time Apple applies and gets a new patent, every Apple lover replies with "b-but but but they'll never use them! And they're probably doing it to protect themselves!" or some other lame excuse.
....No they don't. That's why they're by definition, 'fanboys'. They'll claim that Samsung is infringing upon the Apple patents regardless of prior proof. We've seen Google fanboys do it all over the place whenever someone says something bad about Google or Google does something questionable. A fanboy is a fanboy.
Does that mean that I can file a class action law suit against Sony after agreeing to the PSN terms of service and just be faced with a misdemeanor? (no, I'm not a troll.... this is a serious question)

This is news how?
Convert them to Speak and Spells?

We have that. We call those places, "Movie theaters". People need to learn manners.
Oh Hell no... Fine, that was three.

Because Starbucks has money. Same reason most individuals get screwed in lawsuits compared to most corporations.
Same in Nevada.
Wow. I really wish I got that much mileage out of my bike. I'm running a 750cc katana, and I get closer to 35. I'm also a 6'4", 290 lb guy though.
The american police do things all the time that they're not actually empowered to do.

I hear they also get these spiffy armbands they can^H^H^H are required to wear.

Luckily it wasn't in America. If it was, the TSA would stop allowing pilots through checkpoints, since they're clearly a flight risk.
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
If you do not want USA to have control over your domain get one in a freedom loving country.
What "freedom loving country" would you suggest? no, this is not an attempt to troll, I'm seriously looking for one.

Nerds get together and do nerdy stuff en masse!

On any flight I go on, I have noise cancelling headphones. You can get a nice pair for ~$40 or so.

What would you say if you got a call from your banker tomorrow saying they lost all your money, but...
"A failure to plan on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part."
The difference between Megaupload and a Banker is that I can't copy my money and then use those copies elsewhere for little to no cost.
