    You're gonna need a shitload of LSD then, cause the LD50 for it is so high, that just as with pot, it's not even known. You would have to chug a bottle of Liquid LSD to even possibly OD, which more than likely won't happen.

    The height of military technology included personal fleets of warships, which made up the entire American navy in the revolutionary war. Many of the founding fathers even said things such as that this country will be in bad shape if there isn't a war fought every 20 years for freedom/liberty.

    Why not just run it through a huge radiator like setup that way the water is basically seperated from one huge volume to thousands of smaller volumes which can cool down much faster.

    The police exist to enforce laws, not protect the citizenry. The case law is already there, was found in Miller v Washington (probably wrong, can't be assed to look it up this early and link you) that police officers are not required by any means to ensure the safety of anyone, only to enforce the laws and makes arrests after the fact. That is their only requirement. They are NOT required by law or rule or any such thing to protect your rights or person.

    The line is, if anywhere, MAYBE at NBC weapons and those that can cause mass destruction. Other than that, everything goes. The 2nd amendment was written at a time when the US navy was formed by PRIVATE fleets owned by PRIVATE citizen's. The 2nd amendment is there to ensure that we have atleast a chance of overthrowing our government if the time comes that it must be done.

    Iraq is a country made by western peoples who had no idea of the deep seated hatred the 3 groups (Sunni, Shia, and Kurd) have for each other and simply forced them all together in one country. Because of that, in order to keep the 3 in line a leader like Saddam is necessary. Were there car bombs, suicide bombings, insurgency, etc under him? No. Because he ruled with an iron fist of absolute ownage and everyone knew if they pulled any of that shit, their entire immediate and extended family would be slaughetered for it. It kept the people in line. Sure he was brutal and everything and a person to be despised, but that kind of leader is needed in a country where the 2 largest groups (Sunni and Shia) live basically in the same cities and hate each other cause the 2 sects are at odds and consider the other to be blasphemous.

    I'm sure you've seen the videos of this girl. So all that is from a disorder, and it's not her (her parents as she is so young it can't possibly be blamed on her, but her worthless parents) fault? Sorry, but when you stuff entire pizzas to your face in a single sitting as an acceptable meal, oh my fucking gawd, YOU GET FAT!

    Whether you are hungry or not means shit it's called self control. If you stuff your face, you're gonna get fat unless you have a l33t metabolism. If all the fatty's out there wanna claim it's not under their control, then so be it, but by giving up responsibility for their actions they should also have to give up the right to make those poor choices in the first place, because they've already proven they're going to make the wrong choice, and then forego the responsibility that comes with making decisions for yourself.

    Could be argued the mental anguish he has to endure eventually leading to a possible suicide from not giving in to a desire he has is just the same as some fat ass who can't keep themselves from stuffing their face.

    For the record, I understand that a few people out there have a legitimate medical condition, but I firmly deny any type of attempt to make the majority of fat fucks out there able to call their lack of self control a medical condition. Sure, a handful of people out there are fucking huge cause of a medical condition, but the rest are just lazy gluttons who don't wanna accept responsibility for their actions.

    Actually it has everything to do with conservation of energy/matter because all that weight comes from someplace, namely the food you're putting into your mouth. Don't stuff your face, you won't get fat!

    Most vegetarians are that way because they think it's wrong to eat meat, and killing animals is wrong. Most of them area all OMFG THEY ARE KILLED IN THE MOST VILE WAYS!!!!
    What most fail to realize is that the way they are killed in slaughterhouses/by humans is FAR more 'humane' than what they would suffer in the wild from a predator. Most predators will eat the kill while it's still fucking alive as long as it's immobilized. Most slaughterhouses kill the animal instantly, such as at many beef ranches where they use a nailgun with a nail welded to the piston to the forehead of the cow to kill it instantly.

    Police officers in the US have no obligation to protect citizen's from harm, only to enforce the law after the fact. Case law already has a precedence for it in Miller v Washington or some shit. Was found that the police have no obligation to ensure or protect an individual's safety.
