Okay, how about if someone does say so-and-so should be shot? Paul Kanjorski said it of Rick Scott:
"That Scott down there that's running for governor of Florida," Mr. Kanjorski said. "Instead of running for governor of Florida, they ought to have him and shoot him. Put him against the wall and shoot him..."
Yes, I excerpted the quote. Read the entire quote, and make sure to keep reading what's after the quote.
So, should Paul Kanjorski be arrested for inciting violence? Or do any words qualify for you as "rhetorical" after they're said?
If I didn't have my own testing results, I would be inclined to agree with you. Yes, spinning platter I/O is tremendously sloooooooow compared to CPU speed. But that actually means the quality of the I/O scheduler gets magnified by orders of magnitude, when its decisions are reflected in disk head movement. On both my systems with spinning platters, the XFS+CFQ clash is completely reproducible.
That said, if you can spare a partition or two on your Linux system, I'd be happy to receive any feedback about how well, or badly, XFS+CFQ behaves for you. If you wish, contacting me privately is an option via the link in my earlier comment.
It's more than that. Since most Linux systems use ext{2,3,4}, CFQ is designed to behave very well with them. However, XFS and JFS do better with deadline or no-op. In fact, on my Athlon 64 X2 w/ 4G RAM, using XFS and CFQ at 2.5GHz did worse than XFS and deadline at 1GHz. Yes, CFQ and XFS clash that badly.

Except where state laws also prohibit driving in such a way as to cause a wreck, deliberately. Even if your vehicle is not involved in the impact, if your driving can be shown to have contributed to a wreck in which someone died, you can be charged with murder.
If a fuel tanker had overturned on a campus street, what would the school have done? Notify the authorities, help secure the area, and pass word to the departments, so they could inform their students about the danger.
That they didn't do so in this case, so the school shares the fault with the members of the mob who were trying to use by-standers as human shields.
Here's a clue: The protesters were twice ordered to disperse, and they refused both times, instead assaulting the officers giving the order. That alone would have been reason enough to open fire, immediately. By the time the Guards actually did so, the protesters had been duly warned, given the chance to comply, and were clearly not complying.
Rocks, bottles, bricks... It happens all over the world, and it happened in Kent. Ever been hit in the face with a thrown rock? It won't just leave a bruise; you WILL require surgery, and pray to God you don't have a fractured skull or spinal column (the likely result if the rock busts through your teeth into your mouth).

Just how badly are we trying to alter the Martian environment, before we even get to walk in it?
If Pixar is geek Mecca, call me an infidel. I wouldn't work for thieving, hypocritical Disney any more than I'd work for Mickeysoft... er, Micro$haft.
I have no mod points ATM, and even if I did, well, you're already modded up as high as possible. So, I'll simply say, thank you.
Yes, you misquote me.
That does not mean your words, attributed to me, are untrue.

Yeah, something like this.

It took you so much effort to type that, when you could have simply clicked on the provided link? No wonder you're AC.
Soap, ballot, jury, cartridge. In that order.
Any tool you make for that purpose, can still be used against that purpose.
Even your own mind is susceptible.
Scarily enough, your second idea might actually be possible, if the rod contains a Bose-Einstein condensate.

I have. It's been a few years (less than half my life ago), but still, I can say it's within living memory.

You speak as if these are mutually exclusive.
The excuse in this case will probably be how many fist-fights break out over parking spaces.

Oh, I wither before your ad hominem attack.

comes the centralized focus of power for those who would declare themselves our moral superiors.
Of course, thanks to their self-overestimation, they make a major botch of the job.
