Because we punish for crimes that a person has been convicted of by a jury of their peers, not for crimes that have not yet been committed. Or at least we did pre-9/11.
This story has reminded of my 11th grade high school class. We had this international day, where people would share their heritage. For math class, we were supposed to write the numbers one through ten in the language of our homeland.
Having no homeland to speak of, I made up a language and numbers. Just jibberish.
Except for the number nine. It was spelled n-i-n-e. I don't know why, but the fact that every other number was jibberish but my 'homeland' spelled 9 the same just cracked me the fuck up.
Days Later, they had a spiffy bulletin board up, and sure enough, on the board in big letters was one of my fictitious digits.
I laughed my ass off for a good 20 minutes, and nobody in class knew why.
One Dollar Coins? Then what the hell am I supposed to stick between the strippers obscenely fake titties? A five? Sheesh, you think I'm made of money or something?
When Thibodeau told the head of a government research lab about his mission, the man replied, 'Your problem is so big, it's probably stupid to try and solve it.'"
I'd trust that guy. If there's one thing our governrment knows, it's stupidity.
Conservatives have the computers that count: all those Diebold voting machines. I guess it helps when the president of the company that makes the machines is on your side.
Language is a living breathing thing, which changes with the times; it is not as rigid or absolute as you obviously wish it to be. I reject your narrow definition, I reject your claims to owning the only truth. I also find it ironic that you lecture me on sub-par language use when you omitted the comma before the "which" in your first sentence. That's right, I said ironic.

You've got it backwards. The tricks are used in 2/3ds of the attacks, not that it will stop only 2/3ds of the attacks that use the trick.

What about songs where a corporation owns the copyright?
That logic will turn cheapskates into Mark David Chapmans.
More along the lines of: The commercial said I'd get hot women with this car, but after I raped a few and got caught, I'm gonna sue!

Well, they're working on it. The first prototype would wipe your mouth and spoon-feed your arse, so Jobs sent the designers back to the drawing board.

If these "videos" are the kind that I'm thinking of, be careful of the pages sticking together!
You have apparently never tasted the water in Las Vegas. BLECH!!!

You just love hearing yourself talk, don't you?

I reject your narrow definition, but thanks for playing.
I'm not sure why MSNBC is sourced by the original poster, since it's an Associated Press article.
Woah! Too MUCH color!

You're telling people to "get a life" and "watch more TV land"? Does... not... compute!
