Putting limitations on the posting timing would be a limitation of first amendment rights to free speech. You and I may find it distasteful (Westboro, *cough, cough*), hateful (KKK), etc., but it's still allowed. Contrary to popular opinion, we don't have a right to not be offended.
I love when people bring out the "common sense" argument, as if everyone is in agreement. If you ask a republican and a democrat about what the common sense rule should be for guns, or abortion, do you think you'd get the same answer? There really is no such thing as "common sense" IMO.
Recognized limits to constitutional rights have typically been drawn across the lines of either public safety (don't yell fire in a crowded theater), or when your actions are impeding on those of someone else.
I'm too lazy to look it up, but believe SCOTUS has set precedent on speech limitations...think Westboro Baptist Church, etc. I think it's very doubtful any new laws would be found constitutional.
Maybe you conservatives should have warned everyone that if they didn't do things YOUR WAY, you'd burn down everything in society just because you're spiteful egotistical dicks. Here we are... where another conservative at the state level talks about stripping people of their constitutional rights.
Thanks for that spiteful egotistical profiling...Dick!
Because they're wrong. I've done 3 agency checks on myself since '06 when my credit took a hit...long story. The amount of incorrect data is ridiculous, and each agency has different data. That system is so FUBAR it's not funny.
From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... The Chicxulub impactor had an estimated diameter of 10 km (6.2 mi) or larger, and delivered an estimated energy equivalent of 240,000 gigatons of TNT (1.0×1024 J).[21] By contrast, the most powerful man-made explosive device ever detonated, the Tsar Bomba, had a yield of only 50 megatons of TNT (2.1×1017 J),[22] making the Chicxulub impact almost 5 million times more powerful. Even the most energetic known volcanic eruption, which released an estimated energy equivalent of approximately 240 gigatons of TNT (1.0×1021 J) and created the La Garita Caldera,[23] delivered only 0.1% of the energy of the Chicxulub impact.
The parent was correct, and I mistaken. But, nobody calls it Frankfort, unless you're talking about the city in Kentucky.
But, to your point, having been born in Detroit, I was very surprised when on a trip to France, I saw the "Daytwa" Grand Prix broadcast in my hotel room. I also wondered whatever happened to "Peking"...I just looked that up.
What part of... "Federal law prohibits the operation, marketing, or sale of any type of jamming equipment, including devices that interfere with cellular and Personal Communication Services (PCS), police radar, Global Positioning Systems (GPS), and wireless networking services (Wi-Fi)."
...don't you get? You're not allowed to jam period.
See if you can dig up ANY legal opinion to back up your comment. No?...didn't think so.
You really think they have the supplies stockpiled for more than a week of war?
I just don't see it, but I will concede that you likely know more about it than I do.
Even if they don't, they do have enough artillery that's within range of Seoul to do major damage. If we didn't do a first strike on all of it, we'd see thousands of innocent civilians killed, and the damage to structures would likely be in the billions.
Is NK used a nuke, China would no longer support them, in which case it would be another Iraq. They don't have the weapons or military strength to actually resist the US without China's help.
Having spent six years in Korea as a defense contractor, I'll tell you that you're full of shit. NK is not Iraq. And, with the mountains and tunnels they have, unless we went into a full scorched earth campaign, not caring about collateral damage, it would be ugly.
Yes, you're correct on the cell jamming part...my bad for honing in on the cell jammer part, not reading the whole thing. That said, nobody but government is allowed to enforce those rules, so any private company would be in violation.
If they use that nuke Pyongyang will be gone in hours.
So many of you idiots make claims like this, but you're talking out of your ass. Nobody is going to bomb the hell out of a city full of civilians. We won't be having another Hiroshima, at least from this side. And, for those who believe we'd just steamroll over the country like it was Iraq, you don't know NK.
"The pilot, 100%. If this is a "no fly zone" for models"
And, when I'm legally flying my drone in my backyard (ten miles from the local airport, but in the glidepath), and it drops from the sky on someone's head? Sorry, but it's not legal for private individuals, or private companies to enforce laws. That's the governments job.
2.4GHz allows very directional antennas. It is possible to hit a drone with a spot beam without wrecking all 2.4GHz comms on the ground. They must have tought of this - otherwise, the device won't be legal.
Jamming radio communications is illegal regardless of how selectively you do it.
It's illegal to jam 'authorized' signals - presumably it would not be illegal to jam the 'unauthorized' signals of a drone flying where it's not supposed to. https://www.fcc.gov/general/ja...
There is nothing "unauthorized" about the signals sent to a drone. Even if it was, civilians don't get to enforce the laws. And your link, which refers specifically to cell jamming, doesn't counter that in any way. "Operation of a jammer in the United States may subject you to substantial monetary penalties, seizure of the unlawful equipment, and criminal sanctions including imprisonment. "
So, you'd prefer the approach Chamberlain took with Hitler, and think Regan did it the wrong way with the U.S.S.R. Maybe you could give an example of how pacifism has successfully worked at disarming a despot?
Does Ghandi and company count?
Yes, but only if the despot is somewhat rational, and gives a shit about their reputation with the rest of the world. It in now way matches the situation with NK.
Is that why they've been so quiet? Get real. Here's a list of just the incidents since 2010. The list dating back to the '50s can be found at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
January 27, 2010: North Korea fires artillery shells into the water near Baengnyeong Island and South Korean vessels return fire.[29][30] Three days later, North Korea continued to fire artillery towards the area.[31] March 26, 2010: A South Korean naval vessel, the ROKS Cheonan, was allegedly sunk by a North Korean torpedo near Baengnyeong Island in the Yellow Sea. A rescue operation recovered 58 survivors but 46 sailors were killed. On May 20, 2010, a South Korean led international investigation group concluded that the sinking of the warship was in fact the result of a North Korean torpedo attack.[32][33] North Korea denied involvement.[34] The United Nations Security Council made a Presidential Statement condemning the attack but without identifying the attacker.[35] October 29, 2010: Two shots are fired from North Korea toward a South Korean post near Hwacheon and South Korean troops fire three shots in return.[36] November 23, 2010: North Korea fired artillery at South Korea's Greater Yeonpyeong island in the Yellow Sea and South Korea returned fire. Two South Korean marines and two South Korean civilians were killed, six were seriously wounded, and ten were treated for minor injuries. About seventy South Korean houses were destroyed.[37][38][39] North Korean casualties were unknown, but Lee Hong-gi, the Director of Operations of the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS), claimed that as a result of the South Korean retaliation "there may be a considerable number of North Korean casualties".[40] October 6, 2012: An 18-year-old North Korean Army private defects to South Korea. He is apparently not detected as he crossed the DMZ and has to knock on an ROK barracks door to draw attention to himself. The soldier later tells investigators that he defected after killing two of his superiors.[41][42] September 16, 2013: A 47-year-old man is shot dead by South Korean soldiers while trying to swim across the Tanpocheon Stream near Paju to North Korea.[43] February 26, 2014: South Korean defense officials claim that despite warnings a North Korean warship has repeatedly crossed into South Korean waters overnight.[44] March 24, 2014: A North Korean drone is found crashed near Paju. The onboard cameras contain pictures of the Blue House and military installations near the DMZ. Another North Korean drone crashes on Baengnyeongdo on March 31.[45][46] October 10, 2014: North Korean forces fire anti-aircraft rounds at propaganda balloons launched from Paju. South Korean military return fire after a warning.[47] October 19, 2014: A group of North Korean soldiers approach the South Korean border and South Korean soldiers fire warning shots. The North Korean soldiers return fire before retreating. No injuries or property damage result.[48] June 15, 2015: A teenaged North Korean soldier walks across the DMZ and defects at a South Korean guard post in north-eastern Hwacheon.[49] August 4, 2015: Two South Korean soldiers were wounded after stepping on landmines that had allegedly been laid on the southern side of the DMZ by North Korean forces next to a ROK guard post.[50] Kim Jin Moon of the South Korean-based Korea Institute for Defense Analyses, suggested that the incident was planned by members of the General Bureau of Reconnaissance to prove their loyalty to Kim Jong-un.[51] August 9, 2015: Two South Korean soldiers are wounded after stepping on landmines that had allegedly been laid on the southern side of the DMZ by North Korean forces next to a ROK guard post.[52] August 20, 2015: As a reaction to the August 4 landmines, South Korea resumed playing propaganda on loudspeakers near the border.[53] In 2004 both sides had agreed to end their loudspeaker broadcasts at each other.[54] North Korea threatened to attack th

Notice that each of those examples is in some way affecting the rights of someone else. Your rights end when they impede upon those of someone else.

All that matters is cheap energy and investors making money. Fuck absolutely every fucking thing else. Money is the only fucking thing that matters.
Um, didn't Wall Street barf over the price of oil dropping?

Well, that was part of the whole Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD) policy. Sure, we'd do it if we thought they were about to do it to us.
