So, let me get this straight, you have been "following for years" and you realize now that that there are political issues pointed out here? Have you not read anything posted over at least the last 8 years? Mike does not seem to have an opinion in which he feels one party is better than the other. He points to facts. Facts that can be verified. He did it against Obama and Trump. How commentators respond is not in Mike's control. He posts his blog post and we all debate it or in some cases make fun of the situation. You can't talk about whistle-blowing or the FCC with out it being political.
Are you sure you really have not just stumbled on to this blog today, figured out how to post, then posted because you feel the discussion is against someone you support? We do see your test message as the first to respond with "Test"
Re: So what's the diff between college campus and a Facebook pag
Facebook has rules you need to abide by which also are mitigated by government laws. Is this child safe? No? it goes! Is this discussing illegal activities? Yes? Gone. Is this promoting hate with graphic images and other requirements that the user agreed to when they made this account? Yes? Banned.
Colleges, especially public schools, have the same responsibilities.The issue here is, a very broad rule, that can cover 2 people talking to one another, and not locking all of the people up having a general conversation, as their rule applies, means a bias. These students were not doing anything that anyone can do on public land. They did nothing to the point of blocking passage, interrupting the normal functions of the school. They were arrested because someone disagreed with a sign they had and felt that was a legit reason to arrest them.
What the college did was the equivalent of a white lady calling the cops because a black family next door was having a family BBQ. No laws were being broken, the family were just different.
There I was, right, proposing to the love of my life where we met at the book store on campus and we get arrested because we didn't get approval first. Now they wont talk to me because this went on their permanent record and can no longer join the police force after college!
"I earned my money by convincing a multinational prince company to give me money so they did not lose their porn empire. I now need someone to help me protect my millions. I will give you a small cut of 30% if you just give me your name, address, and telephone number and your bank details, I will make sure monies are transferred!"
What bothers me is, when do cops or sheriffs go on site to deliver a past due notice? They don't even do that when you don't pay your property taxes. They put a lien on the house and don't even need police, there is civil court for civil issues in which this is. When I call the police about my neighbor breaking my lawn mower and refusing to fix it, they will tell me straight out, they do NOT deal with civil matters.
So they were only banking on a quarter of a million people wanting cash over having the company who screwed up watch their credit for them.
When doing math, please make sure your imagination is not included in your arithmetic. Even Trump couldn't get 50% of the vote, how do you think you would?
I was going to say something similar. The funny thing is, everything the government uses that is technology based, has parts made in China. nothing is made in the US anymore, that is the problem. Printers? China. Computers? China. Pee tapes? Russia.
I work for a competitor of CAT (the heavy equipment maker) and we have our own line of clothing, only we don't really market it. CAT has the issue of, trying to have too many things to focus on.
It would be interesting to see in the lawsuit how security cameras saw this, assuming they don't accidentally lose the recordings. I believe that they have to keep copies to 90 days then archive them for another 10 years for most, if not all holding areas where prisoners are kept on their own accord. As far as the strip search, there are cameras, or should be, unless it was done in a hospital room or medical ward.
I was talking to a few Verizon techs on Monday when they were installing a new gig line here in my office. This was ordered from our central IT department, so I had no idea we were getting an upgrade. I told the techs that I had no idea that it was available in this area yet. Their response was "90% of the state has it available, just normal homes don't want to pay $2800/month for the service." 90% of Massachusetts could get gig service, but the price tag is too high. My company isn't even paying $2800/month. Verizon is just the carrier but AT&T is the "provider". Through AT&T we are paying something like $900/month for this.
"The broadband ISPs generally aren't banning anyone, but if they were, they should be included."
Technically, they are trying to. Bandwidth limits and pricing out those people of lower income brackets and choosing not to follow up on promises made to expand their networks and instead falsify things, this is constituted as blocking.
The issue with your statement about a person wanting things for the wrong reasons can be dangerous.
You get many people that agree that world peace is a good thing. Then you have people killing off the criminals, then the definition of criminal changes, and we go down the pipe until everyone is dead in the name of world peace.
Before you say that, remember, there are still people in this world that feel, the only way to stop violence is to have nuclear bombs.
I have heard enough from you. You toss insults around like you are infallible! Did you ever stop to think of what this pure use of insult you have given to the smiling jackasses of the world?
