Judging by Norway's murder rate they are doing just fine.
At some point crazies will always do bad things, but preventing more mundane crime that kills more people is a far more effective goal. Norway seems to be doing pretty well on that front.
BES sucks, getting rid of it was a huge win for the entire sysadmin team. We no longer had to repush servicebooks or restart the BES just so one user could start to get emails again. Doing that last one was painful because then the other BES users, who did not read the email about the pending restart, would call in to inform us that they were not getting mail during the restart. We no longer have to send back devices that for no known reason will never allow themselves to be setup for BES or any of those other headaches.
Android, iOS and WinPhone now can talk directly to Exchange and any other email server that uses ActiveSync. They can also be controlled that way, so BES is not really that valuable anymore.
Be careful soon the RIM fanbois will be out saying bad things about you for admitting this. It can't possibly be that there is something wrong with BES, no it has to be every person to ever admin it was incompetent and untrained.
The police doing their job seems to be the best solution. This seems pretty common though. A friend once reported a theft from a vehicle and the police were annoyed he made them fill out a report when he did not have insurance for this. They literally did not even want to collect basic information that could be used to monitor the number of crimes occurring much less attempt to catch the perpetrators.
Is it vigilantism for me to knock on your door and peacefully ask if you have seen my phone?
To me it seems no different than when religious folks or girl scouts knock on my door. Well other than I don't have your phone, am not interested in your myths, and would like one box of thin mints and one box of samosas.
Those companies prospered until the loans and extremely short sighted decisions caught up with them. Look at what they did with those stores. Bain had the chain take out fat loans used those to pay themselves huge consulting fees then sold the real estate under the store and rented it back. Great way to turn an asset into a liability for short term gain. Thus making the short term balance sheet look great, which let them put them back on the market at a huge profit while the chain was nothing but a zombie.
I did not vote for Obama, by the way. I am glad that out of the two front runners he won though. Not that the president has the magical powers people think he does, but lessor of two evils and all that jazz.
Isn't it normal that displays become available before content is widely available?
We are just getting to the point were HD is the dominant format. HDTVs have been affordable to pretty much everyone for years now. The same will happen with 4K. Once a 55"-60" unit is under $5000 then content will be more available.
This structure is more resistant to micrometeorite impacts than the other ISS modules. The penetrate less and are made of well known materials. These are fabrics designed for their rip resistance, because of that they are used in ropes, rigging for ships and gunshot/stab resistant vests.
One of these units has already been in space for years for testing purposes.

All semblance of being a free society?
So to you the only thing that matters for a free society is owning firearms?
Do you believe no other first world nations are free societies?
This sort of nutcase talk does not further your arguments, it only makes you look like a nutcase.

For reference Norway has a homicide rate of 0.6/100k the USA is at 4.8/100k.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate
Clearly they are doing something right.
Then why does Alaska have such a high violent crime rate per 100k?
Their rape rate is about 6 times NY state and the aggravated assault stats are about 2 times worse.

Mass murder rates are more about population, since AKs population is so low they just don't have enough crazies is my guess on that one.
Reality disagrees. Compare the murder rate of the UK with the USA.
We have a messed up society. For reference just compare our murder rates to any other first world nation.
My friends and neighbors should not be trusted with nukes, either. Does not mean anything is wrong with our society.
No one wants to ban the ballot box, this type of language only serves to convince people you are a fringe nutter.
I have when it was needed. Last time was for a school.
I have no problem paying for services our society needs.
Well damn, last time I said something like this I had folks claiming those errors were only encountered by folks not knowing what they were doing.
Read the article?
Are you new here? You UID is too low to make these kinds of mistakes.
Why, do you want to donate it to a museum?
Here I will call them out for you:

That should get them going pretty good.

Mag is even faster to say.
In all honestly neither one of us knows what they use outside the movies.
In the 60s and 70s they would have used revolvers and actual moon or half moon clips.
No one well acquainted with the topic uses the terminology that way.
Dummy rounds would be dangerous. You just remove the bottom of the magazine and install something to take up that space.

Bain Capital.
This is essentially how they made all their money. Glad our nation dodged that bullet.
Because they are a lot of work compared to getting another shirt for $5-$20. They also look like crap for the most part.
They did not have lots of layers.
They had many compartments, which do not address a large continuous tear.
Good effort though.
It would be neat for parties. Let people control the music and such for the whole house.
Right now my solution involves someone asking me, which takes away from party time.

There are lots of layers to avoid that.
