Same here. In order to cross the Schuylkill river from the town of Trooper to Valley Forge or vice/versa, people have to get on a multi-lane divided highway that's always congested anywhere near rush hour. This is because the two-lane bridge that handled that traffic was allowed to fall apart and the recession hit before they decided to plan on replacing it. The next closest crossing is about 11 miles away.
Do you like having drivers trying to pull off the road in heavy traffic every five minutes? How about if we had a drug that gave you a great high, but every five minutes you had to pull over to pee? Wouldn't that be considered dangerous?
The one thing I like about this law is it only applies to those on probation. In the USA, we have crimes where you have a de facto limited life sentence in that pressure from SIGs have created "sex offender" databases filled with people who had sex in their car and "violent offenders" who never misused a firearm, yet they're not allowed to have one because they once got in a bar fight.
They were pretty drunk. To still be at.08 after six hours, they must have been at.17 when they stopped drinking. To need 12 hours, you would have to be at.26, which is about 13 drinks-- and this is without even accounting for the few hours that non-insane people would take to consume so much alcohol. So I'm guessing that our happy biker here really likes to hit the bottle.
Everything you do while driving other than actually driving impairs your driving. Until you're ready to ban phones, radios, cup holders, conversation, children, animals, and air conditioning from cars, you have no basis for your alcohol zero tolerance policy. After all, are you sure you can handle having all those distractions? If you think I'm being unreasonable, YES I AM-- because zero tolerance policies are unreasonable. By the way, I'm an American. USAians don't exist.
Because MSNBC doesn't have any talking-heads shows. Maddow and Olbermann don't exist. And Glenn Beck effuses delight over Chinese "capitalism" every night at 5 PM.
The recommended daily allowance of mercury in your diet is ZERO. Of course the allowed daily allowance is non-zero. Go figure.
Exactly. Just because your body doesn't need a substance doesn't make it infinitely toxic. Mind you, mercury is substantially toxic, but to demand 0 exposure is as fallacious as "zero tolerance policies".
No, I'd say "lifetime warranty" means whatever it says on the warranty statement. Read it-- usually it's the lifetime of the original owner. I've never seen one that reads the way you claim. If you have, I'd love to see a scan of that because that would be a shockingly blatant example.
I think that in Canada we *expect* to delegate decisions like this to the government, and we go along with the choices because it's their job to research the options and make good choices.
That's not a good thing. Besides shirking the civic responsibility for debate, it indicates the concerns of the minority are being disregarded. Even if you elected the representative in question, you have a right to question his decisions. Naturally, in a republic your true power is in the ballot box, but keeping speech as free as possible is the best way to limit government power.
But it's also stupid, because almost no vending machines take Susan B. Anthony dollars, since nobody uses them (or if they do accept them, they register as quarters).
I've never heard of this. Modern equipment is far too discerning, or else the old slugs would still work. Besides, the slot would be too small. I'm not an expert, but I did work for Mars (MEI) for a short time so I had the privilege of learning about some of their coin acceptors.
Also, the SBA had an octagonal rim, the Sacajawea has a smooth edge, and the (ugly!) Presidential dollars have lettered edges. These features all differ from the dollar and half dollar.
Many, if not most public schools actively DISCOURAGE parents from "interfering" with their children's "education". Mostly, if you disagree with their policies or methods, you're kindly asked to SHUT UP. If you teach your child to read and count before kindergarten, you're yelled at. Essentially, you're supposed to just be a cheerleader and shout, "RAH RAH" while the school produces a herd of ignorant do-nothings with a ingrained sense of entitlement.

Can you point out to me where someone at Fox News made that claim? Do you seriously expect journalists to get opposing viewpoints from Taliban moms?

Geeks don't smoke pot? Really?

I forgot how good those movies were. Too bad they never made any more sequels.

If you're trying to say that there's no historical basis for Biblical events, try again.
No one buys SUVs anymore.
Why did the mint insist on making dollar coins this UGLY?
It's all fun and games until someone has a concussion.
The USA used to have 20 cent coins, but they weren't popular. Then again, that was something like 130 years ago.
Here in the USA, our straw men are exceedingly thick.

No, they just raise taxes. Usually property taxes, although employment and per capita (or, as I like to call it, "tax on air") taxes are also popular.
Nancy Pelosi used the word to describe opponents of the health care bill. It's alive and well.
It worked well for President Wilson in WWI.
Well, at least you agree Marxism is wrong.
P2P? You can download meth on Bittorrent?
I assume "Psudophen" is pseudoephedrine.
