    Yes, Democrats have never been involved in breaking the law. The Kennedy family (political dynasty?) notwithstanding.

    But what do your dogs eat? Murder...jesus christ. Plants are alive, since they're not cute and fluffy, is that not murder? I'd hate to see my family's cattle ranch change from the way it is to some sort of farm resplendent with irrigation, plowed land, and fertilizer. The shape it is in right is almost identical to how it looked to the Blackfoot and Cheyenne when they roamed Wyoming. And you want to tear it up for farming. No thanks, the cattle are actually easier on the land.

    I don't give a damn if the animals are shot for fun or not as long as it is used. I don't think letting a blind man squeeze off a shot is indicative of what's wrong with our planet, whatever is wrong in your book that is. Our planet will be around long after we're dead and gone. Our planet is not in jeopardy. I doubt we are also. America's traditions and culture are in jeopardy if people like you think harvesting wild animals is so wrong. You might read up what the requirements are to classify as "free range." It's not as free as you think. And you consuming those eggs with that air of moral arrogance is far worse by your own standards than eating wild venison. I won't touch poultry products myself. Not after seeing some of those "free range" farms and the factory equivalents in person. Still smells like slavery to me. Beef from American cattle ranches (not factory farms, my family owns a cattle ranch), fish, and vegetables are what I eat.

        You might read the Skeptical Environmentalist by Bjorn Lomborg before you start mouthing off about what's wrong about our planet. Personally, our worship of oil bothers me but the people dying in the Middle East bothers me more. Both sides. I don't suppose you've seen the South Park episode about smugness and hyrbrid cars :)

    And I'll bet you've never consumed flesh or worn leather. Sure. Or used any product with animal fats. Your hands are just as bloody as mine but when I hunt, I take the animal cleanly whereas you have it slaughtered for you.

        Killing animals are the reason the planet is a "pile of shit." Give me a break. Save it for the college dorm rooms. I have a dog and she's a good animal but when you get down to it, hunting isn't doing anything to the planet. Uninformed, misled, smug, self righteous hypocrites like yourself are. Be sure to lose sleep tonight thinking of all your ancestors who hunted to survive. Oh the guilt and shame you must feel!

    Your creationism is not science. It does not stand the test of scientific theory. Black and white. Not to mention the complete lack of evidence. It is religion plain and simple. Stay in church where people take leaps of faith and stay out of the classroom.

    Then claiming the collected writings of a wandering tribe in the Middle East is factual makes sense to you? And saying "well I can't explain it without a Divine Presence" is your argument? Answers in genesis has been taken down many times.

        Look, your faith is fine. But don't confuse your mythology with science or facts. And keep it out of my gov't and schools.

    OK, you'd rather bitch on /. than actually use Linuxquestions.org or Google but here's a few tips and explanations.

        Microsoft can distribute the codecs to play MP3s, Fredora cannot and doesn't have the $$ to waste on this. You cna install ONE package via yum and you're playing MP3s. Understand? Same goes for the rest of the codecs.

        You update Windows all of the time and reboot it, don't tell me any differently. Your point doesn't make much sense. At least whenever you update a broswer on Linux you don't have to reboot (unlike Internet Explorer).

        nVidia drivers are compiled agaisnt the kernel. There are Linux distributions that make this updating painless and transparent (Ubuntu).

        You've never had to set resolution manually for Windows? I have, many times. Windows does not just know the number of buttons on my mouse-both oepratings systems take about 5 mintues to setup properly. I've also had to dowload monitor drivers for Windows frequently.

        Lack of a decent file browser? Are you freaking kidding? Apparently you've never used Konqueror. Nautilus offers me a choice of media players when I right click on a media file.

        Seriously dude. You get what you put into it. Either pay a small amount for Linspire which will do everything you want it to or ask a few damned questions ona Linux forum or even use Google Search or just shutup. I'll be glad to help you offline if you want it.
