"How about not letting the muslims enter our country or the illegals cross the borders?"
Such an attractive concept. Such a bigoted, ill conceived idea.
Yes, virtually every terrorist threat to the United States is sponsored or instigated by some Islamic group or individual. But not all Muslims are a threat.
Illegals crossing the border should be stopped for a variety of reasons, no matter their origin or details.
MGuire AFB is not guarded or patrolled by the TSA. It's an Air Force base. You has a point there, I know but it's not just invalid. It's oblivious to reality.
So far, every test by the FBI etc that we have been informed of has shown the TSA is spectacularly inept at finding contraband that agents have tried to smuggle on board an airplane. They've relieved me of several Leatherman Micras over the years, though. My pen is equally dangerous. Go figure.
Do we know if the TSA has discouraged anyone from attacking a plane? I don't really care. I'm interested in if they have prevented anyone form attacking a plane. How many passengers have they dragged off in cuffs from the screening area? Two?
"In that scenario, any Republican proposals are scary, because they suggest that the Democrats are in no way, shape, or form considering the position reasonable."
Yeah, your manufacturer does not care, since {insert your device name here} does not have:
- Fingerprint sensor (too cool to do without) - NFC (for Android Pay) (more revenue for them) - 3+GB RAM (they don't want to figure out how to shoehorn it into your old {insert your device name here} - USB-C (too cool) (new cables to buy) ( more revenue for them) - and the OEM ROM, of course, to get the OTA flash
So don't bother to ask. Wait for some of the millions of lemmings flooding the boards with "wheeeeeennnnnnn??????" and go figure out how to root your phone and put a Cyanogen ROM on it. Or just buy a new phone...
And the manufacturer of your phone will not bother if at all possible.
So long as you can compel your correspondents to use the method you prefer, all is well.
When you have to accommodate them, as you will some day, you will learn it you can express your outrage, or will have to suppress it.
At work I try to accommodate the Millennials that cling to their chat/IM tool, knowing they were actually expecting me to accept their inadequate response to a question they don't care to figure out the correct, proper answer to, despite their inexperience with the systems involved. I know they will either 'get it', change roles, or leave the best company they could possibly work for in favor of one less demanding. This is not, BTW, a process exclusive to Millennials.
Do you suppose I need to create a video of anything more than four pixels, magnified, blinking randomly to illustrate nothing in particular?
Or should I go whole hog and recreate (in hardware or software, so many questions) a jam counter/ pseudo-random generator with a 7486 and 74194 like the old days, and drive LEDs for blinky effect? Those were fun... Capture the output and call them 'pixels', name it a 'random pixel movie', and wait for heads to explode.
It does seem that black population growth is growing faster than white, but the. Census Bureau is publishing data that indicates Hispanic birth rates are higher than other non-white races.
But if black women cut their abortion rate, this would be impacted. Noticeably from the looks of the data.
This ends up with the Internet being challenged by the least free nation ON ANY GIVEN SITUATION to restrict data or access based on that nation's restrictions.
And that would force less restrictive nations to comply.
Or not.
I vote not. Let nations that cannot tolerate the freedom of others to deal with the problem at their borders.

Details?
Making my point. Thanks!
0. I did write 'virtually'.
1. Um, care to cite any recent attacks planned our executed by Christians for anything related to religion?
And what good is the receipt I don't have?
"Inciting violence will only get yourself ostracized and jailed"
Yup, even on a small scale.

Great retort.

There, FTFY.
It should never be about tech. It should always be about jobs.

"The last time everybody used them was 2004, which coincidentally was the last time the state voted for a Republican president."
Earlier someone asked why it took 10 years to get rid of these machines.
Huh.
That's how I've voted in two different states over the past 44 years.
I want my own receipt, one I can validate my vote with later.
And that would also bring with it some fabulous opportunities for shenanigans
This predates Obama, and probably predates 9/11, but we can figure it what is disclosed. That's bad enough.
Knowing the FISA court was authorized in 1978, we cannot assume anything.

A river named Columbia could be an alternative subject?

They won't try to take this post down, will they?

But if black women cut their abortion rate, this would be impacted. Noticeably from the looks of the data.
And that means what? That white birth rates are even lower?
Didn't raise black birth rates one bit, did it?
And despite that, black women are aborting their babies almost 3 times as often as white women.
This has resulted in the black population growing at a very slow rate, costing blacks political power, influence, and economic success.
I use both G+ and FB, and they are different for me.
Facebook is a morass of annoying acquaintances sprinkled among family and friends. I rarely post there.
G+ is a much more interesting community for me.
Yes, my choices make each site different. FB is where most of my family is, so it also has a loft of noise, and i filter it.
So I use both.
*whoosh*
I'll buy one.
If they flip it the other way. I want a bigger screen when I choose to unfold it that way.

And leave the rest alone.
This is worth fighting for.
And I have been for a few years.
I've been tired of Wired being papered over with Top Gear since before my first cup of coffee today.
I'm tired of Top Gear everywhere.
Please make it stop.
