Yes, it is sad that all we can do is sit around watching these injustices and stupidities happening everywhere and feel helpless to do anything about it other than complain to each other and sign ineffective petitions.
I am missing your point about the clouds though. Looking for a silver lining?
I am 99% sure that they recently fixed the "two-tier" system to make crack penalties equal to cocaine. The original penalties still stand for those jailed under the old system, though. It is not retroactive.
The police didn't say they were sending in SWAT to rough a guy up - they did it to prevent a supposed threat.
Two things. It isn't what they say it is what they do. And what exactly is the threat? Seems like it was some guy talking smack about the police on internet. How threatening!
Not sure why you jumped on that guy. It could easily happen if there was no video. How is it that you think you would be so all-knowing of what actually happened?
Exactly. You don't change the rules after the game starts (especially when people's money is involved). Inman hasn't shown to be the brightest bulb in all this mess, either. Just Carreon's idiocy dwarfs everything else.
Where did he say the UN is different? His subject is the US. He made no statement one way or the other about the UN. Implying that he did is disingenuous and makes you look stupid.
Or why people are always so concerned about "the remains" and getting the body back so they can bury it. When I am dead you can throw my body in the local dumpster for all I care. F&*k the remains!
I thought he was trying to say that if you have a patent on X (the line) you cannot say that it also covers Y (the point) because you can reduce X to Y in some way.
I always find it amazing that patent trolls continue to sue others. To the point of rediculousness, and yet the government officials are blind to it and STILL claim that patents spur on innovation.
The problem is that the government officials are mostly lawyers. They look at all the patent litigation going and see a vibrant working system, where you and I see a morass in the way of getting real things done.
Basically, hire lawyers to lead you and what do you get? More laws and more lawyers.
