  1. Re:The End did not justify the Means on Sim Plague · · Score: 1

    pray tell us admiral...
    would you have allowed the family time to hide/hurt the child? would you have gently knocked on the door and asked: "may elian come out and come to daddy?"
    the cuban american community seems more intent on defying castro than looking out for the real best interest of a child and his father. it is my feeling that elian is being exploited by the miami relatives who are in turn being exploited by the radical elements of the cuban american community.
    come on, would his "mouthy" female cousin be a proper role model? she needs a lesson on the proper way to hold a conversation (one that does not involve screaming at the top of your lungs on all sorts of conjecture which seems to be the only way she holds a press conference).

    that being said, i applauded the government's restraint in waiting and in using adequate force to confuse and deter resistance. you can argue 'what-ifs' all you want to avoid the real issue.

    would the child be better off as poster child for the anti-castro movement?

    one A/C spake:
    "or some reason when I use autoconf it causes strong and prolonged erection. It is a big discomform, as sometimes it gets badly pinched in my tight jeans. Do you know some other configuration tools that do not cause this problem?"

    yea, its called 'life'.

  5. Re:Heard of the Constitution? on The Feds' Ramsey Electronics Raid Blow by Blow · · Score: 1

    the government does it all the time.
    catch is, unless you have the power to sue and pressure the government to capitulate, you are SOL. even then, you are still likely to be SOL.

    the constitution doesnt mean squat if the judicial system isnt willing to back you up.
