  4. Re:Militia, then vs now on Retired SCOTUS Justice Wants To 'Fix' the Second Amendment · · Score: 0

    Anyone that thinks criminals will obey the law are a very special king of STUPID! When seconds count the police are only minutes away, if they show up at all. The amendments are there to protect your rights, what few we have left. Perception and reality, some people just don't get it. The root cause is never the weapon. It is "ALWAYS" the person. If laws worked for criminals we would not be having this conversation.

  5. You forgot after the ex-cons...Hard working honest Americans. They don't stand a chance of being left alone and getting a good paying job. It's just another attempt for Washington to HIDE from "We the people" while stealing the tax payer blind. Also, they would never hire an honest person. /RANT

    The only issue I've had with Mavericks is the Finder leaking memory with a few spin locks during copy and paste. Not a problem unless your a /. bugger or an M$ shill.

  8. Re:Scary AND stupid... on Feds Seek Prison For Man Who Taught How To Beat a Polygraph · · Score: 0

    This is really surprising and depressing to me. I don't even see the crime. Since when is it generally illegal to lie, or to lie well? What's next - imprison people who teach martial arts? Or shooting? Or driving (think getaway cars)? Or better, people who teach writing (which can be used for teaching nearly anything)! Down with knowledge! Bring back trial by fire!

    Embarrassing the jerks in Washington for their lies is the crime..Oh wait....

    First, we got better nutrition. This helps brains. Yay!

    Better? More of it....Yes, but better... Not even. A large portion of the population is OVERWEIGHT because of "Better nutrition". Get a clue. Your drivel falls apart with simple observation. Education fails. Try to teach a fat chick she doesn't need three banana splits after school. Good luck with that, Leon.

    In Zero gravity, water weights nothing. Kips and the required strength should be very low unless there is movement from an external source. I missed the pun.

  15. Re:As Clifford Stoll Said on Is Early Childhood Education Technology Moving Backwards? · · Score: 0

    Are you real? 2+2 is out of date. Reading & writing is out of date. I disagree. ...Mostly because teachers and professors are absolutely clueless on technology having long lost the ability to learn after their last degree If you really want to improve education, how about removing the distractions, and actually teaching out of the book? ...Because that would be removing over half the class and relying on a book that is usually severely out of date? You sound like a terrible parent. You have to LEARN to walk before you can run. Teach your kids the basic things and the computers will take care of themselves.

  17. Re:SO? : Not where I work on China Moving To Restrict Neodymium Supply · · Score: 0

    The factory I work in (central Illinois) manufactures mass produced machines for the automotive and marine industries. We use inconel from UK, steel from Canada, and aluminum from Wisconsin. Even the packing we use is made by International Paper in Texas. I'm sure we use products from China in support of our operations, but the Lion's share that goes into the finished product is NOT from China. The AS400 that runs the factory may be made in China, I don't have the bill of material. The cleaning supplies; same thing; no BOM, etc. Your results may vary. I drive Chevy's, Buick's, GMC truck, Harley bike, and a Winnebago. At least I try to buy AMERICAN. How bout you?

    She was going to lie anyway. I believe she changed her story AFTER she got caught......

    Here is an old story.....as old as time itself......

    In just about every court case where witnesses are called, someone lies under oath, if they didn't then most cases would be easier to solve at trial, someone says one thing, another says the opposite then the jury decides who is more credible and nobody usually gets nailed for perjury, so what the point in
    1) making people swear to tell the truth when clearly someone will lie? and 2)threatening to prosecute for perjury when it clearly happens in almost every trial.
