The pukes always get beat up by the jocks. People will always feel resentment towards those who are more successful or stronger than they are, and the backlash can be quite appalling (Pol Pot?). This is why we elect people that appear to be dumber than most. Intelligence and knowledge are frowned upon. And weak people resent having to be protected by the powerful. The oppressed become the oppressor. yada yada yada.
And another 30-40,000 suffer from various levels of injuries up to missing limbs, missing eyes, missing parts of their brains, extreme disfigurement, etc.

You name one government service that has ever worked as advertised or worked well.
The post office isn't too shabby. And you can make it pretty easy to detect is anyone opened the envelope. If latency isn't too big of an issue, you might want to give it a try.
Google has fought when the US government wanted them to turn over customer records in the past.
That's what we've been told...by Google. There's no way of knowing what they log, or what they hand over, while they supply plenty of dramatics to keep us distracted.
Nowhere in the Bible is there an exhortation to do such things.
Oh really?
Matthew 10:34-39
34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.
37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.
39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.
or Psalm 137:8-9
8 O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.
9 Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.
Deuteronomy 22:20-21
20 But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel:
21 Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father's house: so shalt thou put evil away from among you.
22 If a man be found lying with a woman married to an husband, then they shall both of them die, both the man that lay with the woman, and the woman: so shalt thou put away evil from Israel.
Lots more where that came from. If all this is open to interpretation, then so is the Qur'an... or no?
And so is freedom in general, if we allow this to continue. I simply cannot overstress the need to find a workaround to the corporate/government control of the internet. We must eliminate the need for the ISP with community wireless, and we also need a way to put up information without the need for a far off hosting company that cut you off without notice. Free speech must be completely, absolutely...uh...absolute. Those who can't see the infinite divide between words and deeds are as blind as blind can be. If you can be provoked into committing violent acts by words, then you are an animal, a dirty, filthy animal that should be put outside before you leave your steaming heap on the carpet. Let me see if I can put it another way: FREE WILL MOTHERFUCKER! DO YOU HAVE IT??
They should provide legal protection to people who share their network connection with the public.
Yes they should, but they are doing just the opposite, and the real reason is that they see ubiquitous access to the internet as a threat to their authority and power. Ignorance is strength.

Now, there is no cutting in a RED zone. The red zone has always been for prepping. Don't you tell me which zone is for prepping, and which zone is for recovery. Look Betty, don't start up with your white zone shit again. There's just no cutting in a white zone. Oh really, Vernon? Why pretend, we both know perfectly well what this is about. You want me to have an abortion. It's really the only sensible thing to do, if its done safely. Therapeutically there's no danger involved.
Just the other day I tried to install Konqueror, and it forced me to install some UNIX like operating system. Wiped out my whole hard drive. When is it going to end?
On the contrary. I would proudly wave my pole to the camera, make 'em envious, and I would love to see their reaction after I...uh...well, you know. It would be a new form of target practice. Go for distance... and accuracy.
Shouldn't the oath they take be good enough? And we have impeachment procedures to remove those who violate that oath. It's up to us to make sure those procedures are enforced...with teeth. We already have a few sites with lots of info. But mass media is doing its best to keep us distracted from them, and so far it is succeeding.
I want to add that the key word you mentioned is broadcasting. Once it leaves their property, it's no longer their signal. And I will also say that even a secured signal that crosses my "territory" is mine to do with as I please.
Ok, let me put it another way. Do you think Bill gates would ever have been the world's richest person if he could/would have prevented his software from being pirated? Or would Adobe be as big as they are? A simple hardware dongle puts a pretty dent in piracy. Why are they not employing it? I believe you know the answer to that.

Democrats always have to get past this "we could use the money to feed the poor" mental stumbling block.
"...First, I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth..."
That statement was not made by a republican.

Yeah. Just as soon as the commercial comes on...

Only a small step away from goatse..
Whoever decides to bomb anyone else is an extremist who does not represent the whole.
Now's you chance to apply that very same thought to Muslims or practitioners of Islam, as you see fit.
It's more about the quality of their beer. Not that I have anything against Pilsen. I think they make a perfectly fine beer over there.
...furthermore has declared that earmarks need to be eliminated.
All of them? I think not. And he's all for the biggest earmark of them all... for maybe another 100 years at least. Feel free to nit-pick.
Free the Keating Five!... oh, wait
Don't try to paint a whole group with the idiocy of a few.

I'm such a whore:-)
American Evangelicals don't go suicide bombing anyone that disagrees with their point of view.
No, just an abortion clinic or two. They're too cowardly to blow themselves up with it.
They also don't call for the execution of cartoonists that portray Jesus disrespectfully...
No, but they've come pretty close.
For instance, if this film incites violence against adherents of Islam, then a ban (and prosecution of those responsible) is the right move.
So you don't believe that we have a free will either, huh?

It has been proposed (by the company that makes it and has the patent) to mandate it...
