Do some research on US laws. Police can detain you to determine if a crime committed. Hell just watch the TV show COPS - they do it all the time. "I'm not placing you under arrest, I'm just detaining you while we get some information."

You must show your driver's license and registration when stopped in a car. Otherwise, you don't have to answer any questions if you are detained or arrested, with one important exception. The police may ask for your name if you have been properly detained, and you can be arrested in some states for refusing to give it.
Notice how "detain" and "arrest" are two seperate things? And that you may be detained without being arrested??

Can The Police Stop And Question People Who Are Not Under Arrest?
Yes. The police can stop a person, and ask questions, without "arresting" the person. Upon seeing suspicious activity, the police may perform what is called a "Terry Stop," and may temporarily detain people to request that they identify themselves and to question them about the suspicious activity. The scope of a "Terry Stop" is limited to investigation of the specific suspicious activity, and if the police detain people to question them about additional matters, the stop can turn into an "arrest."
Haven't you ever heard of Guantanomo Bay?? The US is "detainig" hundreds of "suspected terrorist" without arresting a single one of them. Or is that "utter baloney" too?
Detaining someone for questioning and/or cuffing them is NOT arresting them. The police have a right to detain and question you (and to cuff you if they think you may be dangerous or may flee) without having to arrest you for anything.
Anyone think this may have not been an acident?

Does anyone think that this may not have been an oversight, and that someone knew the geeks would figure it out (like we did before) and wanted it to be leaked??? I know it's giving someone a lot of credit, but stranger things have happened...
How could anything German possibly be evil?? Besides I am willing to bet the ratio of hot chicks getting strip searched for being "suspicious" versus the ratio of fat, ugly, soccer guys is pretty skewed...
Nah, I don't have to. They already spied on me and came to that conclusion...
That is my point exactly. My arugment works just the same as yours - they are both completely stupid and illogical. The only difference is the US government actually supports your statement...
"Do you know many legal agreement between two private party, and which can be changed at any time by one party, even absolving this party from any previous legal agreemeent with the other party, without involving this second party ?"
Your mindless tautologies do not amount to a tactical strategy against the republican warprofiteers. Will it take another, worse attack on our own freedoms before you take them seriously?
No, any phone provider is free to start doing business there... They just choose not to (because of AT&T has all the business - it's kind of a Catch-22)
Yeah, I certainly wouldn't want a pacemaker installed, unless I compiled the kernel myself...(Check it out - not only does it keep me alive, it's also a web server! BSD isn't dead!)
That only applies if you left one country with the specific intent of having sex in another country where the age of consent is lower. If you are on vacation/holiday and you hook up with someone it is much different legally than if you were going somewhere else explicitly for sex. State authorities in the US only have jurisdiction in their own states (unless you are transporting a minor across state/country lines for the purpose of sex), and UK police have jurisdiction in the UK, not Spain. Did you happen to notice the web site you linked to and got your info from also had a Viagra banner at the top of the page?? And a link to Cool Teen Sites right under that?? Maybe not the most "official" source of legal information, huh?
Age of consent is not an absolute number either - many states have laws that if you are not within 1-2 years of the minor, it is still considered statuatory rape (IE 18 y.o. has sex with 16 y.o. = OK but 19 y.o. sex with 16 y.o. = NOT OK)

If you spent the 30 seconds you are talking about going to the theater land line, 911 would know where you are calling from before the call even went through. Only on some cell phones that have the new 911 service would this happen. You are also not going to have the call dropped half way through giving the information. Besides, the 30 seconds you speak of does not translate directly into 30 seconds the ambulance will get there earlier. It depends on when the ambulance is dispached, only after they get all the information. Guess what? Before cell phones is was possible people had heart attacks in theaters. As a matter of fact, tons of emergencies happened before cell phones were widely available, and yet somehow, we managed to save people back then too...
Wrong, if you are on call you are on call. If you want to be able to go to a theater, don't take a job that you are on call. Nobody is forcing anyone to take a job with these requirements. When you are on call you are generally being paid - so complaining about doctors not being able to go to the theater would be like me bitching that I can't go to a movie during my work hours - when I should be working. There are plenty of time that doctors aren't on call - that is when they can go catch a flick.
