But if they affect the brain in the same manner... well, I'm certainly not qualified to judge the ramifications. Perhaps steeper sentences will come about- who knows... ?
The basis for making kiddy porn illegal is the harm to the child. If no child was harmed because someone took a young looking 18 year old and PSed her a bit, then no law was broken. You can't outlaw porn that resembles kiddy porn but doesn't involve kids because then you wouldn't have a reasonable standard for declaring a porno legal/illegal - you could take that young looking 18 year old and claim that it was 'simulated kiddy porn' and get away with it.
The law in this case does consider who gets hurt (as it always should). You may be able to extract damages from a person who distributes Heroes for free, but you'll run into the timeshifting argument (they were broadcast), and you'll also run into the problem that this increases exposure of a new series, thus adding to the people who actually watch the show. Of course, you first need NBC to bitch about this, which depends on whether they're run by screwheads.
As an aside, ever since I got my ReplayTV, I don't watch commercials unless they're funny.
Contrary to popular media, RFID is not something that enables tracking by satellites, black helicoptors or mysterious vans you see roaming your neighborhood streets.
How about a nailbomb?
It isn't going to respond unless "prompted" by a reader either. This prompting isn't any sort of encryption because RFID is not secure.
The big deal is that stuff on the internet lives forever - pictures of naked, questionably adult women will be circulated until the sun explodes, and you can't really get rid of them either.
Remember when it was AOL chatrooms that were full of perverts (still are, I'm sure)? There's always some big bad scary thing, and most of them can be disregarded.
The basic point stands: BMI sucks. I'm 5'10" and 200 lbs, so my bmi is 29ish. However, my waist is 34" and my ideal weight for my current musculature is around 190 (I'd have body fat at around 5-7%). If you want to find out how healthy you are, you have to test yourself and measure stuff like fat percentage, not run a calculator on a website.
First off, that's an independent phrase giving a reason why the 2nd ammendment is a good idea, not giving the only reason. It does not qualify anything. Secondly, militia refers to every able-bodied male who's reached majority. Given recent ammendments, that can be expanded to include women. It really is this simple; if you don't like it, get an ammendment.
To the NRA the right to bear arms may appear as obvious as the danger of doing so may appear to others.
Well, the 2nd ammendment is an established part of this country's law. Likewise, there is risk associated with this, but all available research points to it being, at best, a secondary cause for violence (economic causes tend to dominate).
What, so banning ak47s and glocks will keep them out of the hands of terrorists? You can't be that stupid. Banning all guns will only make it difficult for normal people to possess them while making any attacker's job easier. Oh, and you still haven't named any terrorist incidents that involve ak47s (I want something in the USA).
Sure, you can do this. If you do it constantly, you're an idiot and will lose the kid at 18 - basically, you need to give the kid his own space as he grows up and allow him to make his own mistakes or else he will never grow up. Either that, or he'll do his growing up after 18 when he tells you to go to hell and never talk to him again.
Nah, back in the 50's people just didn't talk about it so much. There are and will always be places where people look out for each other and places where they don't. I personally think this is worthless for any sort of kidnapping - the abducter will just toss the phone at the first chance.
Watchmaker - I'll wager that the CEO of Rolex has several watches of his own, and the conversation would go "good man, showing off the company goods". Tag Heuer would probably be somewhat less popular.
Anyway, a mid-level programmer who can't afford a rolex needs a better job. That's the equivalent of getting a cheap nissan instead of the Maxima, or keeping your old car another year. It's almost the same as paying cash for your car vs. financing.
Yeah, how many people really want a 787 of their own? The operating costs would kill you if you weren't Paul Allen or running an airline. Rolex is different - it's a personal article and cheap enough for any professional who cares to to own one.
Yeah, but these are watches, not an accounting package. It's nice, when people work on things meant for private use (like watches, cars, and suits), for them to be able to buy and use those same things. It's also good advertising - a nice rolex, even the simpler ones, should start more than a couple conversations.
The clockwork universe is a 19th century anachronism. My goals are a result of the interaction of my goals and experience, which is, in part, due to the goals of others.
Both are faulty. Your choices are from your life, experiences, genetics and goals. Goals are what you decide for yourself, and are the core of free will. My choices are not supernatural.

Hey, surprise! Autonomic responses can't be suppressed by conscious, upper cognitive reasoning. If it could, lie detectors wouldn't exist.
They can't be reliably interpreted, so Lie Detectors don't, in fact, exist.

Pheww, that's a relief.

If they care that much about me being a sarcastic ass on usenet in college, maybe it's not my kind of job, is it?

To be fair, banning AK-47s is somewhat related to preventing terrorism.
Based on what? Name one terrorist incident that involved AK47s.

Does that include a deep discount on the watches? It'd suck if you couldn't afford to buy the watches you make.

In short, you can have both. What's stopping you?
$500 is a lot of cash for toys.
Yet another person who missed the joke. Pity - it was a good one.
Perhaps if there is trully free will this means that there must exist something supernatural (the identity of which remains unknown).
Why? Just because you don't understand how it works doesn't make it supernatural.
