The liberal answer is to resort to name-calling (teabagger, really?), and then to make a ridiculous statement and attribute it to an opposition leader.
First - you're absolutely right - give all kids weapons. Second, teach them proper care and use.
Stop teaching only when the child is fully familiar with the rules for handling a firearm, acceptable uses, consequences for misusing a firearm, empathy, and equally important - a sense of mortality.
By the time they've earned unrestricted access to a firearm, the firearm will be less of a weapon and more of a tool. The mystery and taboo will be gone.
Unsolicited goods are those goods which are sent to someone without being asked those goods to be sent.... Goods or services are not considered to have been solicited unless the recipient specifically requested.
Look at that, I replied to myself. I'd hate to rob you of your argument and you not see it... so here's a repost.
Your definition, and I quote your previous post:
Solicited does not mean desired or intended. It means that it was the product of a previous existing business relationship.
The definition of solicit has no requirement (or mention) of a previous existing relationship. And it does, in fact, mean (and I quote from the actual definition this time):
to make a petition or request, as for something desired.
The definition makes no mention of the fulfillment of the solicitation.
Furthermore, the original course of this thread started when you posited that the act of soliciting a specific thing meant that delivery of any other thing meant that the delivered item was solicited - leading to the current thread path providing the definition of solicit to you.
Why don't you ask, Nicholas Kittleson. He's the attorney that owns the site you're advertising in your signature. I'm sure he'll set you straight about the legal definitions. My guess is that you're his friend Marc Whinery.

It was successfully tested against a variety of modern vehicles with no modifications. Presumably, one would need to drive an older vehicle without the electronic vulnerability or harden the electronics of his vehicle to be immune to the effects.
QA is tasked to the very butts-in-seats who were tasked with writing the application. Being lazy bastards, they don't write QA tests that test functionality in all scenarios - they write QA tests that always pass in unrealistic perfect data scenarios.
You also missed the hand-off and ongoing support contracts.
The application is then handed to the customer. Naturally, the customer accepts delivery when all of the QA tests pass with flying colors. They begin training their users on the new system - which is made more difficult because as the users gain new knowledge - they lose old knowledge. Many die after forgetting how to breathe. Those who survive begin to input data that causes errors that the QA process was meant to catch. A support ticket is opened and the process starts over again. This generates another contract to fix the bug, which makes the managers happy because they get to have more "butts to bill".
I have a very recent (days old) CM 10.2 nightly on my phone and it not only works great - but I have root, play store and other google apps, I save to the SD card regularly.
From my experience - everything you've said here is false.

Yay legal dictionary!
Let me fix that for you.
The customer requested "something." They got "something else".
"something" = solicited
"something else"= unsolicited
Intimidate, no. Just making sure your comments stick with you into the future.

Only a person desperate to win would try to pull a stunt like making up a bogus definition to support his argument.
Did you think nobody would notice?
Let's change 3 words to see how that statement sounds with actual items from, say - a restaurant.
They solicited a quiche. They received an omlet. Thus the omlet, even if not what was expected, was solicited.
Wow. I bet you're in sales.
through an obvious database mistake
A mistake not made by the customer, but by the merchant.
The customer didn't order the PS Vita Tearaway Bundle - therefore the PS Vita Tearaway Bundle was unsolicited.
When I need mod points - I don't have them.
That's a well deserved "dumb ass" if I ever saw one.
What improvement?
It was successfully tested against a variety of modern vehicles with no modifications. Presumably, one would need to drive an older vehicle without the electronic vulnerability or harden the electronics of his vehicle to be immune to the effects.
If a car catches fire when it's not in an accident, and it wasn't intentionally set ablaze - I would call that spontaneous.
And I learned something new today - reading list adjusted!
I was right there with you, thinking "what does puppet, chef and salt have to do with Enders Game?"
I forgive you for the errant apostrophe....just so you can't say that the whole world is against you.
Nobody else will forgive you - but I will.
You should expand on QA - or...I will.

I stand corrected. It seems they are planning these things for future versions. It isn't currently true though.
