    Well it all goes back to drinking and driving. MADD got sobriety check points put up anywhere they decide to check pretty much. Join DAMM "drunks against mad mothers" if you want to get that changed.

    Nixon called it that mainly to get drugs out of the military. If he were alive now, he would think things have gone a touch too much.

    No, that's Texas. I bet they have the strongest laws on the books. I'd say 90 days and some fines.

    Did you see the numbers? It's almost $50 a pill. Some drug company has now patented a propellant for asthma medicine. Since you can't use the old inhalers because of environmental concerns, if you want asthma medicine that used to be off patent is now back on. The patent office is screwed up entirely. Bayer may have lots of research tied up in this but many companies are mere patent trolls.

    The Jews were there too way before the 1948 war and guess what they were called Palestinians. So recheck your percentages. Jews also owned land in that area. I just don't understand why so many a racist on this especially when the Arabs refused democracy and decided to fight that. The ones that stayed get to vote there now.

    Where else would you put the Jews? The Arabs and Jews weren't in control of Palestine as the UK got that after WWI. Plenty of Jews lived there under the Ottoman Empire.

    So all Palestinian land has been stolen. By who? The British? They didn't exactly control that place in the first place. Before the British it was the Ottoman Empire. I believe the Roman Empire worked off of stolen land and slavery. There has never been a Palestinian state in the first place. I don't think you know shit because you are damn well not up on your history. Before the Roman Empire controlled that area the Jews did so you can say the Romans controlled their land. Maybe Israel ought to handle the Palestinians just like the Romans handled the Jews and the problem would be solved. There also is no Arab state that is a democracy. There are Arab citizens that get to vote because they are citizens.

    Personally I don't give a damn about any Arab preaching how bad the Jews are treating them when they themselves would do much worse to the Jews if given the chance. Iran would Nuke the US and Israel if they could. AND another thing you don't have one reliable link that justifies your position.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1948_Arab%E2%80%93Israeli_War

    It seems like the Arabs were offered lots of land. Many Jews bought their land before the war in 1948. You are just another stupid echo boomer that don't know shit because your parents and/or school didn't teach you and obviously don't have the ability to learn on your own. There is nothing there to do with DNA. It's religion.

    The Jews didn't kill Jesus either. Pilate did. He was Roman and in control. Actually many peoples DNA can be traced back to Mesopotamia WTF does that matter.

    Well yeah they just disable it in the OS. I don't think would have done it at all if millions of customers didn't call them and say I want my Amazon and apparently now you can't get on the regular Market anymore without agreeing to new Google TOS. Maybe Android will finally be OK when all are on 4.0 without crapware. Apple doesn't have crapware but you can only buy stuff from them,

    --Better to take on the Roman Empire and be completely wiped out than to compromise, even in the slightest.--

    Uh, I don't think this statement is totally true and besides it was around 2000 years ago. I also find the remark slightly racist and I'm not even Jewish I don't think. Israel in 1948 accepted the UN resolution on the matter and the Arabs refused. The UK was in charge of Palestine then. So it's all their fault.

    No actually I finally got an Adroid Phone to side load but it took a phone call for 2) OTA's first. I think Symbian allows side loading but Nokia is going to abandon that.

    Well SuperOneClick might not do that. It doesn't work with HTC phones. There are other ways to root a phone. The point is, you shouldn't have to go to all of that trouble. I'm sure the newer devices have this unlocked now and they did change their policy but sometimes it takes a phone call to get that OTA that fixes that problem on older phones. They will tell you that you are not near a tower when you have line of sight to one and explain to them where the tower is that you are operating from. That was a pretty long conversation. Like you will have to call them again like if you do a factory data reset to update your software. It's annoying. AT&T should have not done this from the start.

    No you wont because you wouldn't have service here. Verizon has yet to build much here and their service is spotty. T-Mobile and Sprint aren't here at all.

    I think so, but I don't know which phones do this and which don't. At first it was like 3 phones and one tablet while the rest wouldn't allow side loading. They also have blocked wireless tether because they want to charge you extra for different data. The only reason I'm still with them, is they are the only carrier to have my area covered for the most part from all of those out in the country Alltel lines they ended up with when Verizon bought Alltel which I would rather have but I think they have no problems side loading but maybe do with tethering without charging extra for that. I've heard T-mobile doesn't do this but Sprint and T-mobile are rare outside of a good sized town.

    --That said, I've held a security clearance, and known people with even higher security ratings; and even the Feds don't go demanding to see your Facebook profile. This shit is ridiculous.--

    They probably do many things without asking. I know that you have to take a lie detector test. Those are accurate right? They may even run your credit. They could get more information there than anywhere probably. For certain clearances they would interview all of your known associates. The Feds probably don't care so much about Facebook as some state.

    I've changed my mind, it isn't worth the time of whomever is doing the security check.
