It doesn't matter whether you were malicious or merely erred, you were still at fault and should be held accountable for your actions.
It certainly does matter. Accidents are usually minor misdemeanors and don't carry any jail time. If it was malicious, then it can be a felony carrying several years in prison.
You are confusing punishment with accountability. In both of your examples someone was held accountable, but the punishments were different.
what about those of us who bought the iPhone at full cost ($599) the first week it was released. Why the fuck do we have to pay the same monthly fee as if we were paying for the more recent subsidized phones? Why do I have to pay for unlimited Data when I'v never used more than 500 MB in a month? (Why does EDGE suck so bad? Why does it never work when I need directions or a phone number?) Why the fuck do I have to pay for minutes I never use? Why can't I apply my rollover minutes as credits toward my phone bill? Why do I love my phone, buy hate everything about my service? Why am I stupid enough to pay $900 a year for service that is so flaky?
Unless AT&T can address my concerns, I don't really care how much the subsidized phone costs. Unless the TCO can come down to a reasonable price and the data features actually work when I need them, I will not be renewing my contract -- not even for a new subsidized phone.
I'd rather pay for the hardware and decent service than to keep throwing away money at service that doesn't meet my needs.
And by the way, its spelled 'constitutional'. But you made my day by arguing a constitutional basis for unconstitutional censorship while misspelling the name of the document you are misrepresenting. Call me a moran, and you will complete the trifecta.
Also, from my youth, I can clearly remember older people saying that our parents 'coddle' their children too much, and that they were raising a generation of pussies.
Point in fact: I use Verizon's VZ Navigator more than I use the phone to call anywhere. it gives you maps, directions, gps location, and the phone number and address.
Thats because you don't know where you are and have no friends.
Which bit, exactly? I've read it many times, and I still can't find a bit that says it's not constitutional to tap somebody's phone if you have a warrant.
Reread the article and pay attention to the warrantless part, it means without a warrant.
Reread the constitution and pay attention to the warrant part, it means with a warrant.
Put the those together and come up with two, not three.
but all I can say is that I'm saddened and disappointed that so many Americans understand so little about the document that our great nation is founded upon.

Maybe not when you're tailgating non cops, try driving 3 feet behind a cop and see what happens.
You sure it wasn't because he couldn't get people to accept $1.18/hour like in China?

They were offered 215M for most assets and 220M to cover liabilities, the offer was rejected. They believe they can get more from being liquidated.
That's the way your insurance company sees it, and they are right. And as far as the road rage thing goes, I know how to handle that..
With your medical insurance after not dodging the bullet?
That should be the new defense for gang rapers, its not like 2nd and 3rd guys did any additional harm, it was just the 1st guy.
Since the driving mileage was the same and you have a more expensive house payment why would you even move?
And to the arrogant tit who was "baffled as to what's going on in your head", the grammer's not that difficult!
Niether is the spelling.
Neither is the spelling.

Just a few nitpicks:
pandemic origin is from the 1600s, not very recent.
Even though are circumstances are better sanitation wise they are worse travel wise.

You answered your own question with a question:
Why am I stupid ...
you are just too stupid to realize it.
Basically, a century-old rip off of Apple's HIG.
Do you really want to start the rip off game? If so, go back and check out where Apple got the mouse and windowing system from.
And by the way, its spelled 'constitutional'. But you made my day by arguing a constitutional basis for unconstitutional censorship while misspelling the name of the document you are misrepresenting. Call me a moran, and you will complete the trifecta.
And by the way, its spelled "it's" and "moron".

How do you know they didn't?

Ok, since you gave your permission to quote
Do quote me on saying "it's utterly evil to not bow down to the government". I dare you...
Painfully?

No, I would call that reverse engineering. When they sold the reverse engineered product, that would be capitalism.
...and charging rediculous prices too.
Is that more than ridiculous prices?
He did it was a joint venture.
Let's take it to the extreme: there are only tree colors (R,G and B). And there is no spoon.
If there are only tree colors would that be Red, Green and Brown?
