If he secretly videotaped a girl having sex with her boyfriend and set the video up for public viewing, how would you react?
I would react the same way. This is the point. The court of public opinion should also react the same way, but they aren't. It's a huge deal, because it was gay guys.
Aside from violation of privacy, how is this such a big deal? I'm 38 years old, and I have yet to see two dudes kiss in public (aside from TV). If I did see it, I would find it to be strange, because it's outside of what I'm used to seeing.
So, again, outside of the privacy violation, did he also commit some crime by not being accustomed to, and indifferent of homosexuality? Should he serve a prison sentence because he thought two guys kissing is strange/not what he's used to seeing?
What machine? On my Android devices? On my Linux notebook? On any set-top box? Unless they're offering DRM-free files, they're not matching the current playability of ripped DVDs.
I don't know whether OWS is behaving like you say en masse, but the cops (and by ext public officials) are no better
Yes, because we see cops throwing bricks through windows and shitting in public all the time.
woe unto you if he's bored and/or lazy and you're the easiest target
So... you not only think cops are just as bad (or even worse) than the OWS idiots, you think the cause for their abuse of power is... boredom? O.... k?
With the modern forms of police brutality, those images don't exist and the protesters have lost a valuable form of leverage.
No, the thing that the protesters have lost is anonymity and the ability to tell just one side of the story -- theirs. Now, with citizen journalism and the abundance of video, they can no longer cry, "police brutality!" at every encounter. This is why many at OWS have attacked those carring cameras and have refused to allow access to news media (see Oakland.) They want to be able to instigate, and then play victim to gain sympathy.
You're right. The game has changed -- now the protesters can no longer have complete control of the narative.
"I'm a Republican and am no defender of Obama, but I would love to ask the Republican candidates who was in charge when gas prices started to ramp up in the year 2000 and why it did so."
They would probably answer: Bill Clinton, who was President until January, 2001.
Culpability for potential fallout with Pakistan (had they not already been cooperative, which they were) would, of course, be on Obama's head. He is commander in chief of the US military. But, to give him credit -- attributed as an actual accomplishment in his presidency is ridiculous. As you said, he said "go." He got lucky that he happened to be in office when Osama was found -- nothing more. And, that was my question. What policy or action did Obama put in place that lead to finding Osama?
Shady or no, a list of search results is a list of facts. A list of facts cannot be copyrighted (just like a phone book.) So, fair or not, anyone's search results can be copied and republished without worry of copyright infringement.
Yes! It is the year 2012, and our traffic lights are still running on timers. They're stupid, they waste time and fuel needlessly... they need to go. We have computers that can understand the spoken word, read the written word, and do whatever the hell it is that Kinect does. Our traffic semaphores should be far more intelligent than they are. I think I'd prefer something more along the lines of computer vision than and RF announcement -- for privacy reasons, but at least there's technology in the works.
Others have already pointed out the merits of evaporative cooling, but I'll add this. It works, because the nuclear fuel is adding energy to the system. The motion of the water itself is not the energy source. Just like in your car, the gasoline is adding energy to the system, and this is why your radiator can keep your engine cool. The water pump and fan do not consume the total kinetic energy from the engine.
No it isn't. You're assuming that the water is not capable of cooling at all without first being cooled. This is not the case. If the water is even one degree cooler than the reactor, it is capable of cooling. The fact is, the water would not have to be cooled much to be completely effective -- you would not need to use the total of the energy produced to cool the system, because the water already has some cooling capacity.
Ah, and here it is: "I can't refute your arguments, so I'll claim you got them from Fox (or Faux) News" which, in some people's little minds, is actually a viable retort.
The truth is, I don't watch fox news. I am not a cable or satellite subscriber. I get all my news online from sources like NY Times, the Breitbart sites, LA Times... Reuters... In the case of OWS, all anyone has to do is search for the subject on YouTube -- there are plenty of citizen videographers documenting the goings-on at the OWS rallies.
For one, nobody knows what the story is with that picture.
The guy shat on a cop car. That's the story. If you have another witness to counter the photog's account, by all means proceed with the presentation. You can try to whitewash this particular incident, but it doesn't matter. With all the rape, murder, theft, exploitation, stockpiling of weapons, stifling of free press and other violence at the OWS rallies, dropping duke on a cruiser is a minor misdemeanor.
For another, there aren't nearly as many OWS people as there are Republicans who reject evolution
Is it only Republicans who reject evolution? I wonder where Obama stands on the issue -- being that he's *cough* Christian and all.

Ha ha! You have to go to the doctor..
So, because I've never seen two guys kiss, I'm a bigot? Or, somehow narrow-minded? O..k? Maybe it's just not really that common.
FWIW, I visited Munich and Tokyo just last year.
You don't know that. Was it hatred? Or, was it possibly unfamiliarity?
why?
I would react the same way. This is the point. The court of public opinion should also react the same way, but they aren't. It's a huge deal, because it was gay guys.

Coming from someone who can't even figure out how to log in, that's pretty rich.
So, the cops are the ones raping and murdering fellow protestors. Got it.
Yes, because we see cops throwing bricks through windows and shitting in public all the time.

The only way to enforce such an act would be to require that voters present ID -- something to which I'm sure you'd be opposed.
They would probably answer: Bill Clinton, who was President until January, 2001.
Well, this is all because 28 days in February ought to be enough for everyone.

What change did Obama make in military operations that facilitated the finding of Osama Bin laden? How does Obama get any credit for this?

What use is a plane with a range of a mere 600 nano meters?
No it isn't. You're assuming that the water is not capable of cooling at all without first being cooled. This is not the case.

The largest group of anti-intellectuals in present-day America that I can think of would be OWS. And, I'm pretty sure they're not Republican.
