This means I have to get up at 5am to drive 300 miles from one end of the country to another over motorways usually on the damn M6 then over twisty country roads for 4 to 5 hrs
I'm not sure you know how funny that is. Across the COUNTRY in 4 to 5 hours....wow. In the US that would take about 36 hours, non-stop.
I'm glad somebody pointed this out. I went to Purdue and they have a VERY active Linux community. They do support Linux on their network, just maybe not for everything. I have my mom, who works there, set up at home on Ubuntu to connect to her office VPN. I simply followed the instructions on ITAP's site and it was up and running.
No, it isn't stupid. HIV and AIDS let OTHER diseases attack your body. Tuberculosis and cancer both directly cause their damage. As for firearms, that is the most inaccurate of the examples as they are inanimate objects, like a hammer.
I don't think anyone has actually every died FROM HIV have they? Or even AIDS for that matter? Haven't they basically all caught serious infections and died from that?
1. You can build 1 firearm PER YEAR without a manufacturers license. Any more than that and you need the proper license and permits.
2. The bit about the rifle cartridges is incorrect. The only firearms considered destructive devices are those over.500 caliber; again shotguns are excluded. This is because there is no real definition of rifle caliber versus pistol caliber. I have a handgun chambered in.308 Winchester, for example.
3. The legal barrel length, federally, for a rifle is 16", not 16.5". Most manufacturers leave about 1/8" more just to be safe. There is also a short barreled shotgun stamp; the barrel length requirement for shotguns is 18".
In addition, the only "permission" required for a SBR is the tax stamp. You can build one yourself. You just have to get the SBR stamp before assembly, or in some cases even acquiring the barrel. One example of the second case is the AR-15 platform. If you have a barrel under 16" you either must have a pistol receiver or a receiver registered as a SBR.
That is the ATF's responsibility, not the NSA. He didn't need clearance for it from them. In fact, he didn't need clearance from anyone since a muzzle loading firearm, or cannon, is not considered a firearm by the ATF.
the point is that it was his mistake, and so he pays the price.
There's only one problem with that assertion. Microsoft specifically said playing games or DVDs with the system in a vertical position was ok. Scratched discs were a well known problem.
So what? That's completely useless and irrelevant because the only current devices that support cable cards are TiVos and the cableco's set top boxes themselves!
There are many TVs on the market that have cable card slots built in. I have no problem with a Tivo because I can buy one, and own it outright, and take it with me whenever I move and not have to rent a box.
I'm sure the cable company will be more than happy to provide you with a cable card if you need it. That'll just be an additional $9.95 per month rental fee for the additional outlet.
Well, no, since they aren't allowed to charge for extra outlets in your house. They can only charge a rental fee for digital boxes and such. They are required to provide a cable card for free also.
What debt collector shows up at your door anyways?
A friend of mine had a collection agent ring his doorbell at 1 in the morning looking for his brother because he had helped his brother in some loan capacity in the past. He told him his brother doesn't live with him and to not come back. They did once, and then got the hint.
"Can you be charged with breaking and entering a house that has the door left wide open?"
Um, yes, you can. Breaking doesn't mean you broke something physically. It means breaking the plane of entrance into a structure../ really needs to make sure their "editors" know what schitt means.
You may want to have somebody look up Texas case law regarding speed limits. That's there the "buffer" is going to come in. It probably won't be in the actual traffic statute. It will have been argued at some time and a point of law would have been established.
This information is from a police officer friend of mine.
When exactly were you a senior? A student assaulting a teacher is illegal. The teacher defending themself is legal. This has been ruled on many places. I know that doesn't stop lawsuits from happening, but it sure as hell would stop them from succeeding most of the time.
And there are certainly locales where the local police force will give you a ticket for going even one mph over the posted limit, even when you're in the process of decelerating from one speed zone to another.
The last part of that sentence made me stop reading. They can't ticket you for that unless you're well into the lower speed. There are buffers where speeds change. I don't know of anywhere in the US that doesn't have this. And I'm not talking about the cops letting it go; I mean it is a traffic law.

A few corrections:

Fixed that for you.
That's exactly what I was going to respond with but apparently truth gets you buried.
Actually, beverage cans filled with concrete are a very common ordinance for cannons. They are cheap and sometimes reusable.
No, they still have nothing to do with it.
I didn't.
It'd be quite difficult to know that since it isn't true.

They simply 'vent with flame'.
That just means that it is a SMALL explosion, not that it isn't an explosion.
The only problem is that it is a completely TOUCH SCREEN phone. It DEPENDS on external forces to function.

Agreed, Titanic is NOT a bad movie. It has some cheese, but it to be expected. Overall, it a very good movie.
Well, I'd be more worried about your magazine being empty. Forget your cell phone.

That is just plain awesome.
