So the number of Macs is statistically insignificant at your workplace... of 7000 users, which is statistically insignificant to the millions of American office workers. You can't trust these posts... and all Spartans are liars;-)
(Also, if you had RTFA, you might have seen "In Businesses that had 10,000 or more employees...")
Gosh, if only there were a way to make copies, somehow, of valuable files. You could use those while waiting for your precious originals to be restored to you.
Wait, back up, there is no way.
Maybe you don't quite get the phrase "gun culture". Check http://www.guncite.com/cnngunde.html. The U.S. rate for gun deaths in 1994 was 14.24 per 100K. In England it was 0.41.
If we had strict gun control, then our cops could make like Bobbies and carry nightsticks instead of guns, and the kid would have been "grabbing for air" (get it?).
Slate had the good angle on this one yesterday (http://slate.msn.com/id/2112357/). The basic idea: of course the math is crap. The real debate is over the role of government:
Democrats support welfare for old people, on the grounds that it creates a safety net for capitalism's losers, who might otherwise live in poverty. Republicans oppose welfare for old people, on the grounds that it reduces incentives to work and save, it gives the government too much money to spend, and it makes people overly dependent on the government for their retirement. That's an honest debate. Let's have it.
You are responsible for securing your own privacy. The world is a big, ugly, potentially dangerous place, and you can never count on the law to protect privacy.
There is a difference between not relying completely on the law to protect privacy, and not having any laws to do so. While I agree we should remain vigilant, I disagree that everything should be left up to the individual. That path ends with you in a small room covered in sweat and bandoliers, surrounded by cops with bullhorns.
My general opinion of the topic is that this is indeed a violation of the Fourth Amendment. I mean, the Founders could have written "persons, houses, papers, and buggies", but hey, close enough.
There is a difference between spending SOME time on the issues and "the inordinate amount". IMO, the key reason we don't have direct democracy is logistical.
The fact that we have a representative democracy should not excuse one from studying key issues. In fact, I'd say it is our duty as citizens.
