They are prescription only here as well but many patients will bully doctors into doing this; doctors also err on the side of caution because of lawsuits. Agree on the ads - if only doctors are allowed to make the decision, they should be the only ones ads are targeted at (in medical journals, etc).
I think other areas are the cause. You don't see China or India leading the world with billions of dollars of research on how life began (because it really isn't a priority). Creation vs evolution doesn't affect chemistry, physics, or 90% of biology. I know several very smart and productive hard science PhDs who espouse creationist viewpoints; somehow it doesn't affect their work (they obviously don't work in evolutionary biology though).
Democracy vs. Republic is not an irrelevant semantics bandwagon. While dictatorships reinforce the rights of a small minority against the majority, pure democracy leads to the majority oppressing the minority. This is why a republic is necessary to protect the rights of the minority as well.
Not going to call you a "liberal", "faggot", "commie", "pinko" etc but I will say you have a thin skin. There is a reason it's called a joke. Same reason we call Mac users gay and Southerners toothless.
I know plenty of military who have gotten the extra screening on flights. And didn't the late Ted Kennedy (or some other congress person) get denied a flight since his name was similar to one on the watch list?
This. The old mental hospitals - descendants of the insane asylums - were rightly criticized for some incidents of brutality, etc. However, the pendulum swung the other way with psychs trying to keep the mentally ill completely re-integrated into society while giving meds and treatment on an outpatient basis. However, this resulted in the mentally ill missing treatment (often because of the illness), and becoming a danger to themselves and others. During a couple stints of doing volunteer work with the homeless, there seemed to be 2 major classes of homeless; those such as families or others temporarily homeless for a while due to hard luck/economy/etc and a larger group that was more or less permanently homeless since their mental conditions either directly or indirectly through caused addictions prevented them from holding down jobs.
What were the charges? If they were running the Dutch end of an import-export op I can see the US trying to get jurisdiction, but how would the US even find out about simple posession/smoking/dealing within Holland?
Consent of the governed is considered to apply to tourists/other non-citizen visitors since it is assumed that by traveling to another country they voluntarily place themselves under the jurisdiction of those laws (if a Dutch citizen doesn't want to risk the high drug penalties in Singapore, for example, he can just stay and smoke up in Holland). Citizens are then (theoretically) granted the right to vote on their laws since they have no "home country" to go back to. Where it gets sticky in this case is determining if "traveling" virtually to the US servers is equivalent to getting on a plane and flying to the US.
WRT UK citizens being charged for posting hate speech on US servers, nations also claim extraterritorial jurisdiction over their citizens - for example, US citizens who travel to Thailand for example to have sex with small children can be prosecuted in the US just as if they committed the crime here.
I'm sure a lot of whites in the south were uneasy when blacks rode their buses/ate in their diners - was it fair to take away their rights since the "majority" was afraid? That is why we are a republic and not a democracy.
I'm now offering marriage services to anyone who wants to marry anything that doesn't decline (and is present).
You might want to add (and isn't drugged or unconscious). Otherwise you might get a flood of Slashdotters with potential brides.
Nope, you oversimplified to change the meaning unfortunately.
His example was
(both black and white men) can marry a black woman since black men have the same rights as white men
(both black and white men) can marry a white woman since white men have the same rights as black men
(both black and white women) can marry a black man since white women have the same rights as black women
(both black and white women) can marry a white man since black women have the same rights as white women
Your:
- A homosexual man can marry a woman; he can not marry a man.
- A heterosexual man can marry a woman; he can not marry a man.
simplifies to a man can marry a woman; he can not marry a man. Doesn't discriminate by sexual orientation there.
The punishment for contempt would still work if it included a jury trial like any other crime - disobey a cop/interfere with an investigation and get locked up for 6 months (for example) after proper criminal proceedings. In the same way, once proven that you disobeyed a valid court order, you would be charged with contempt of court and locked up for 6 months. In some situations, this can encourage more serious crimes. For example, someone ordered to reveal if they had any other assets, could (1. refuse to answer and be thrown in prison indefinitely) or (2. perjure themselves and receive a maximum sentence of 5 years (assuming US federal code)).
Actually, many sims do not require force feedback. Pilots generally learn the "mechanics" of feel and how to control a plane in relatively inexpensive prop/jet trainers in basic pilot training. Much of what sims are used for is switchology - how to run checklists and operate all the complex electronic gear in a modern cockpit. With the more rote items committed to muscle memory, pilots can focus on the "feel" in the actual airplane since their flow/checks come automatically. In addition, very realistic emergency procedure training can be had since it is difficult to safely simulate many emergencies in the actual aircraft. Finally, for aircrew who are already proficient in the aircraft, new tactics/procedures can be tried much more quickly and easily than trying to schedule/fly an actual flight.
IANAL but I thought the whole point of corporations was to limit investors' exposure to the amount of their investment. Otherwise your grandma could be sued for the Ford Explorer rollovers since she owns 100 shares of Ford stock in her retirement savings.
Our elected officials work for the public and most people on slashdot have a fit whenever one of them uses a non-official account to conduct official business, since communications about taxpayer business, written on taxpayer time are considered to be available to the taxpayer through FOIA, etc.
Nokia further owns the email systems, so it's not like them monitoring texts from an employees personal cellphone. I have had a work cellphone; it was always known that the employer got the bill at the end of the month and could see the records of calls made. If we wanted to make a call and hide it from the employer, we *gasp* used our own methods of communication.
Or you could pay a lawyer a couple hundred to establish an NFA trust or LLC. Trusts/corporations are not required to have a law enforcement signoff, fingerprints, etc. Also if you want your wife/husband/etc to be able to legally possess them all you need to do is add them as an officer of the trust/LLC.
Currently the FAA regs stipulate this, above a certain low altitude traffic going visual w/o ATC control is west=even altitudes +500 (4500, 6500, etc) and east=odd +500. Instrument flights under ATC control are the same but on even thousands instead of +500
my plane gets about 20 mpg at cruise and has monthly payments of only ~ $200. Tie down fees are $25 monthly.
Wow.. what model is that if you don't mind me asking (always thought planes ran 100K+); what about maintenance etc?
IANAL, but typically, no. For example, if you were in a movie theater that says "no food or drink", and the usher saw you with a candy bar, he could ask you to throw it out or in the extreme ask you to leave, as it is his (the company's) property. If you then refused to leave you could be arrested for trespassing. If you were kicked out for having the candy bar and given a notice banning you from the property (stores often do this with shoplifters, for example), you could be arrested on sight if you return at a later date. You could also be arrested for trespass for entering a clearly closed theater without explicit permission.
In some states businesses with the approved "no-carry" sign are written into the concealed carry laws as locations prohibited to carry (ie carrying there will get you a misdemeanor ticket for vio of the CCW law). In states without this provision it is the simple law of trespass that the owners have available; you are only in violation if discovered, asked to leave, and you refuse to do so.

That was the point - the cops targeted him since he fought the first one

It should be fairly easy to reverse engineer - Sigma and Tokina among others produce third-party lenses that mate with Canon/Nikon/etc DSLRs.

You'd probably need a police report and therefore risk criminal charges for filing a false one.

I don't think "videos of their families waving at them and showing homemade delicious cake" is what soldiers are watching off their thumbdrives...
In which court?
That would limit its usefulness among Slashdot readers though...
