The goal should be 100% law enforcement.
Why not 0%, the only other option you gave? Anyway, it's stupid to say that if we don't do something to the extreme we shouldn't do it at all.
Show some proff of abuse before going on your witchhunt.
You want proof? There are hundreds of documented examples of law enforcement officers using their power to their own advantage and the detriment of justice.
Id love a system that could have caught the DC sniper a lot sooner
Call me callous, but I call the right to privacy more important than a few lives.
You have completely the wrong idea about LFS. You say that it's the distro's duty to impose filesystem standards, you say that the distro should do a better job of integrating parts, and so on.
Of course LFS will not put it's foot down! (heard the slogan "Your distro, your rules"?) Put your packages wherever you damn well please./opt is for third-party programs? What's 3rd party when everything comes from different places and is compiled by you anyways?/usr/local is for non-essential components; does that include X? Decide for yourself; it really doesn't matter anyhow.
As for integration of parts, I'd really rather not see every distro come up with their own way of doing it. If the individual projects do it, excellent. However, I'd rather not have fluxbox stop working when I uninstall Mozilla because RedHat thought I could use the fluxbox-integrated-browser patch. I'm happy with modular components; isn't the lack of them one of the major complaints about Windows?
I unilaterally declare that it is my right to trade files.
My duty is to put my own interests first.
Any government, including that of my own country, that tries me because of my "offenses" is violating my own law (as I decree that putting me in jail is illegal).
First things first, this article isn't about circumventing censorship controls as your post seems to suggest.
I do defend all human rights, and will continue to do so.
I do hate it when Americans (or people of any nationality) try to force their ideals on the rest of the world. However, nobody is forcing non-censorship on anyone.
It is not OK for a country to remove a corrupt government in another country, for the same reason that it is not OK for a country to remove a non-corrupt government. What gives gives anyone the right to say what is corrupt and what isn't? Why should the US have any more right to export democracy than the USSR had to export communism? This point is unimportant, however, as the war is not about freeing the Iraqi people.
No, don't meddle in other countries' affairs. However, give the citizens of other countries a choice.
Heh - "sycophants". Not W's, at least.

I'm pretty sure what he meant was perfect world = no exploitation; open source lives = good; whatever the hell open source lives means.
to see if they can make babies?
