So I'm assuming you've never paid for a newspaper subscription, and have not ever once bought a paper from a newsstand? Quit bitching about pointless borderlin psychotic paranoid bullshit. I've fucking had it with this place.
Goddammit you whiny fuckers and your anti-registration bullshit. Just get a bullshit email address at mail.com like everyone else in the known universe and quit whining like a fucking pussy. Jesus tapdancing Christ you people are fucking annoying.
If the president of the US cannot fulfill his obligation, the Vice President takes over until the next election. What's so different about the Canadian system? I don't remember anyone calling LBJ the 'unelected' President when Kennedy was shot.
Bullshit. That dealer needs a foot up their ass. Ford will work on anything Ford, the year doesn't matter. The dealer in question needs to be beaten with a pointed stick for turning away business.
Kill Bill vol 1 was awesome. I had no clue what to expect from it. I actually hadn't read much about it before going to see it opening day, but since it was Tarantino I was willing to wager my friend's free passes that it would be good.;-) I loved it. I didn't think I'd see what amounted to two hours worth of KUNG FU EVIL DEAD! The first half of the movie seemed very WRONG. The dialogue, especially after the Bride fights Vernita Green, was BAD. But when you put it into the context of the second half of the movie, with the almost cartoonish tone, it makes a lot more sense and upon a second viewing, it fits in perfectly with everything else in the movie. I can't wait for vol 2.
Finding Nemo! I don't think it has displaced Monsters Inc. as my favorite Pixar movie, but it definitely is Pixar's best work visually. I mean, they managed to make Ellen DeGeneres NOT annoy the living piss out of me.:D
They shoved a WiFi card up his ass before flushing him in the first movie. It was a deleted scene, but you can see it on the upcoming Matrix Trilogy DVD.
I was 11 when we got our first computer. I knew precisely DICK about them. I'll submit I STILL know dick about computers, actually. But that's not the point. That computer went through more shit than you could imagine. On three separate occasions it crashed and took the OS with it (mmm... Windows 3.1 *barf*). I COMPLETELY freaked out my mother by forgetting to hook switch the CD-ROM I was installing (4x!) from Master to Slave so it tried to boot from the CD drive. "OH GOD! YOU BROKE IT!" That was so great. At some point you've just got to let your kids go. Get 'em an eMachines or something, toss a good video card in there, and just let them go. If they break something, show them how to fix it. That is, if they can't figure it out themselves.:D
Hehe, so was I. All that memory management shit made my head hurt. I had to hammer together some sick batch files to get games working. A different boot disk for each game. *SHUDDER*
Agreed on the restraining order point. That would be a case where the use of a system like this would be appropriate.
You're probably right that the response time for a police call wouldn't be lessened by much, but the on-premises security could be notified and respond almost immediately. This is assuming that there are on-premises guards, which may not be the case everywhere.
And of course I wouldn't support satellite tracking for everyone. It would probably hurt my $5000 a day crack and heroin habits, not to mention put a dent in my infidelity. No, that's not an argument. It's a joke.;-)
Why in the name of Flaming Cheetos Ass Explosion would someone be serving divorce papers at a SCHOOL? I clarified in another post that the man in question had a history of abusing her, and that their divorce was a very messy one. If she'd had the CHOICE (that's the key thing here) to put him into a system like this, he may have never made it into the school.
I'd venture that very, very few people are stupid enough to server divorce papers in a classroom full of 2nd graders.
It's all irrelevant, because I'm personally not behind this system. Just a little devil's advocacy on my part.
1) No. Only ones that the spouse feels may be a problem. It would be their choice to toss them in the database. This woman was going throug a VERY bad divorce with this dude, and he had a history of abusing her. In that case, I can see where that would be a good thing to do. I couldn't see this happening for cases outside of what I described, and it is in fact a very narrow use. I'm not trying to defend the system as it sits, only say that it DOES have some uses.
2) Depends on how the system is set up. If it's set up so it monitors the outside then the scenario I described is entirely plausible. In fact, the teacher in question was taken AT GUNPOINT, from one of the outside buildings. Having the system set up only on the interior would be useless in this case.
I would not be comfortable with setting up the system to scan the outside world. At the school in question, there are houses right across the street. What happens when someone that looks, at a distance, like a child molester that's on file shows up at his friend's house?
But again, I don't support this system. I like to play devil's advocate, even when I don't neccesarily believe in what I'm arguing. I always try to provide a counterpoint to the popular opinion, and I think I've given a couple of compelling arguments where this would be a good system, but I don't believe that it would work in its current incarnation.
Yeah, alleged, dipshit. Since you obviously have no fucking clue how the US legal system works, let me enlighten you.
When a person is believed to have commited a crime, he is called a SUSPECT. Once he has been charged, he becomes the ACCUSED. Another term for this is the ALLEGED. When someone is believed to have KIDNAPPED A CHILD, and then is later CHARGED WITH THEIR KIDNAPPING, that's the perfect time to FIND THEM ANY WAY POSSIBLE. Fucking dipshit.
Please, if you're going to argue something, do it SENSIBLY. Point out the utter shite that is the facial recognitiong success rate, or something like that. Don't try to

I ask an honest question and I'm a troll? Fuck your dog too. Now you can mod me a troll.

Why not? He's completely right about the warranty issues. What makes you think nothing else he says is reliable?

IP isn't there to benefit the community, it's their to benefit the person that came up with whatever the IP happens to be.

Those are design differences, not basic principles.
So? There's probably more people that copy friend's CDs than buy their own and I don't see anyone bitching about that anymore.
What's your point? A lot of shit wouldn't exist if it wasn't for something else. MP3.com wasn't going to work either, remember?
Yeah, like your damn creeching bleeting wounded animal calls are worthy of being audible. Damn Mongilians... err... saxaphonists. ;-)

Or you could just follow him. Any more bordeline paranoid notions you want me to shoot down?
It didn't say accused sex offender, dumbass. It said alleged CHILD ABDUCTORS. Read the fucking article, then we'll talk.
"And if the guy was a convicted abuser he should have been in jail in the first place."
Most simple abuse cases carry very short jail terms. That's if you're lucky enough to get a spouse that's willing to press charges.
