The Palestinians don't have to launch missiles. They just don't. You realize this, right? No one makes a young man pull that trigger. They DO have the power to NOT fire missiles.
And if they do this long enough, this NOT firing of missiles, then there will be peace.
But all the black folks in the US who are American all have some African lineage. If you are black, were born in the Dominican Republic or Haiti, for example, move to the US and become a naturalized citizen, you are still an African American.
"Most people with ALS die from respiratory failure, usually within three to five years from the onset of symptoms. The median survival time from onset to death is around 39 months, and only 4% survive longer than 10 years."
So maybe you meant 39 months or somewhat less when you said you wanted him to die of it soon, but this is unlikely; no one really contracts that ailment and passes away quickly. Probably you should have picked another ailment.
It would be preventative in that it would prevent him from doing it again. It might rehabilitate him if he is willing to be rehabilitated. He may not be.
Help is not the primary concern. PREVENTING him from doing this again should be our number one concern. This involves incarceration.
In the rest of the "civilized world" you don't often have crimes like this:
(11-16) 10:57 PST VALLEJO -- A 14-year-old boy has been arrested on suspicion of kidnapping, sexually assaulting and attempting to murder a 65-year-old woman in Vallejo, police said Friday.
The suspect was booked at Solano County Juvenile Hall on allegations of attempted murder, assault, carjacking, armed robbery and kidnapping for ransom.
The name of the boy, a resident of Vallejo, was not released because of his age.
Officers learned about the case at 6 p.m. Thursday, when they received a call of a woman being found near Hiddenbrooke Parkway and Interstate 80, said police Lt. Jim O'Connell.
She had been beaten and sexually assaulted, O'Connell said.
She told detectives who interviewed her at a hospital that she had been kidnapped at gunpoint from at the Gateway Plaza shopping center on Plaza Drive in Vallejo. The youth forced her to drive in her minivan to a spot several miles away, where she was assaulted and left unconscious in a ditch, O'Connell said.
So, this just happened today. Now, your two statements are in direct conflict with each other. "No, this is the civilized world, where they don't usually send children to prison."
vs
"Or anyone to prison for what's clearly not crimes where the society needs to be protected from the individual."
It's very clear society needs to be protected from this individual. If we can reform him, great. But the NUMBER ONE priority should be to protect society from him, and that means LOCKING HIM UP. For a LONG time.

This is an adult crime. Talk to the 65 year old woman he raped about "children are to be given special rights and protections according to the UN charter of children's rights".
The fantastic, insightful website http://natesilverwrong/ website was very helpful in showing me how Silver would be entirely proven incorrect, with quotes from lots of people about why he would be shown as an idiot, and his methods were skewed.
What are you smoking? The fact that Obama demanded that Gay folks be allowed to serve in the military, and that he would no longer defend DOMA, and you seriously believe his record is abysmal? Seriously, what are you smoking?
I have been using iTunes Just Added functionality for years. Now it is gone. Basically, as a DJ, I am always looking for new releases in a certain genre, and Just Added allowed me to filter by my genre. It's been gone for two months, and perhaps the impending release explains it. Maybe they will put it back in place in some other way.
This takes you to the Just Added Page...the problem is the sorting by genre no longer works, while it once did. It is possible that someone with better computer skills can be can enter that page and have it be sorted by category.
Does anyone have a bookmark anywhere of a page automatically sorted by a genre? If we can figure that out we can probably append the variable to the end of the link and it will work, at least until Apple inexplicably really kills Just Added for some stupid reason in the impending release.
Creepy guy comes up to me as I am minding my own business, and starts to film me to make this point. He's very close, which irritates me.
So in response, I get very close to him, and yell in his face very loudly. No real words, just a very loud scream. As loud as possible, right at him, over and over.
Now, from my standpoint, the point I would be making is: if you irritate and act obnoxiously to others, they might do the same to you, so try not to irritate and act obnoxiously towards others.
Apparently his filming me is not illegal. If I yell loudly at him until he went away (or until it escalated, which could easily happen) would it be illegal to do that? In this specific situation?
If you are a minority, you are still much more likely to be a victim of violence at the hands of another member of your minority than you are at the hands of the cops. This is the point he was making. If you think it is false, please try to find some statistics to back it up.
Safety of the community is absolutely the goal of social liberty. If you can be taken from your home and thrown in a cage for personal choices you've made that don't affect anyone else, how safe are you really?
You are not very safe at all, especially if you are, for example, caught distributing child pornography electonically. This may be one of the "personal choices you've made that don't affect anyone else", but you are still going to be thrown in jail for it, and rightfully so.

What anti-democratic position? People in Gaza voted for hamas. They can vote freely.
People in Israel can vote freely.
What the hell are you talking about?
Or Kachings. Or Pings. Or whatever. I'll stop now.
...the Tolkein Estate wants to be Lord of the Blings as well.
Exactly. If someone attacks you and instead of responding with violence, you don't respond and you instead *die*, then you will then be at peace.
Idiot.
How do you know they prefer to hit military targets? Do you have any evidence to back up this claim?
No, he means "cornichon", or a small pickle.

Maybe they shouldn't smuggle rockets into hospitals.
This is unlikely.
Quoth wikipedia:
"Most people with ALS die from respiratory failure, usually within three to five years from the onset of symptoms. The median survival time from onset to death is around 39 months, and only 4% survive longer than 10 years."
So maybe you meant 39 months or somewhat less when you said you wanted him to die of it soon, but this is unlikely; no one really contracts that ailment and passes away quickly. Probably you should have picked another ailment.
Wait..um...I got it!

I'm not scared of the 14 yr old. I'm scared of people would not incarcerate him.
It would be preventative in that it would prevent him from doing it again. It might rehabilitate him if he is willing to be rehabilitated. He may not be.
Help is not the primary concern. PREVENTING him from doing this again should be our number one concern. This involves incarceration.

This was today, near San Francisco.
This is an adult crime. Talk to the 65 year old woman he raped about "children are to be given special rights and protections according to the UN charter of children's rights".
Ask her what she thinks about that.

It seems to be down now. Not really sure why. :-)
The best one was natesilverwrong.com.
I actually read this a few days before the election,and it was full of detailed analysis of why he'd be wrong. Very harsh on him.
It went offline the day after the election. My suspicion is the domain if probably available now if you want it...

This is a very good question.

It's been gone for two months, and perhaps the impending release explains it. Maybe they will put it back in place in some other way.
For a while, I was able to access it here:

This takes you to the Just Added Page...the problem is the sorting by genre no longer works, while it once did. It is possible that someone with better computer skills can be can enter that page and have it be sorted by category.

I tried using this page as a reference:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/affiliates/resources/documentation/genre-mapping.htm l
And added a link at the end, like so:
http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewNewReleases?pageType=justA dded&id=1&genres?id=20
As an attempt to sort by a genre with the id=20, but no such luck. Maybe it's just not sorting...
But this is a good start. Anyone want to suggest something?
What if I were to do the following:

I, too, can use the L33T Translator...although the above person seems to have used a tard translator of which I am not aware.
