  1. Re:homosexuality on A Savant Explains His Abilities · · Score: 1

    I think a lot of replies are misreading the parent. If christianity doesn't allow it, find a different club to be in. It's like Tiger Woods fighting to join the KKK.

    I'm afraid that was a rumour put about by men with small ones.

    Before he does anything drastic like returning it, it might just be a simple error like not having enough peanut butter on his CD's.

    Get your windows CD and cover the shiny side ( don't make the mistake of putting the butter on the label side, we'd laugh at you then ) in a nice even layer about 5mm thick and place it in the drive and restart your computer.

    Aftr this simple step, viruses will not bother you again.

    You can't be an American ; if you were you would have known that Hummers are small, practical, economical runabouts. This is the new standard to beat :

    This will intimidate even a hummer ( which will fit on the back of it ( 7 miles/gallon BTW))

  18. To the knumbskull that modded me a troll... RTFA on Indymedia Seizures Initiated In Europe · · Score: 3, Informative
    Tony Bunyan, Statewatch editor, comments:

    "Rackspace may be a US company but Rackspace in London is subject to UK law not US law. If they took down and handed over Indymedia's servers simply on the basis of a US subpoena communicated to them this would not be lawful in the UK.

    However it seems more likely that the US subpoena was the subject of a request for mutual legal assistance from the US Attorney General to the UK Home Secretary under the MLA Treaty. It would for the Metropolitan Police, probably accompanied by the FBI, to enforce the request and take possession of the servers.

    This begs the questions: Why did the Home Office agree? What grounds did the USA give for the seizure of the servers? Were these grounds of a "political" nature? Has the Home Office requested that the servers be returned? What does this action say about freedom of expression and freedom of the press?

    A trail that started in Switzerland and Italy has now ended fairly and squarely in the lap of the UK Home Secretary to justify."

  19. Re:Hosting provider is a US corporation... on Indymedia Seizures Initiated In Europe · · Score: 0, Troll

    A subpoena from the US is useless in the UK. The FBI chose to do this bit of enforcement themselves. Presumably getting their hands on all these 'subversives' details was too tempting for them to overlook.
