It's par for the course in the US. easily 3 in 4 people are quite literally, this fanatical and/or IQ of borderline room temperature.
You don't see it right away because you don't give "the crazy" a chance to show. However, ask someone what they think about Obama, for example, and you will get responses ranging from pure idiocy/verbal aggression/religious furor to denial of facts. It lines up with common republican/conservative viewpoints but is not limited to the political spectrum.
so how much will they pay for the illegal seizure?
I bet that's going to be fun in court.
"hey guys, we obtained a bogus warrant via citing CFAA/"possible criminal activity", and the dude's not guilty. Here's your stuff back, broken, illegally copied, etc".
really? Watch how fast concurring opinions from other districts pop up

Caps really aren't helping your case here. I don't know if you think you're a funny troll or what, but your post is neither interesting, factual, insightful, or funny.
There are plenty of adults who enjoy comics. It's a form of art. Manga is another form, also considered art. Calling any form of a comic strip a kids cartoon merely shows us that you're out of touch with reality, blue. What is dilbert if not the same thing?
I'm not a huge Marvel fan, but I don't feel a need to harp on those who choose to enjoy it. Respect other people's decisions.

Given the rupert murdoch corruption....errr...connection, They've been trotting this out via foxnews since early this year as it being "dangerous for thievery" let alone anything else.
US COC is as credible as imagination. They are something that shouldn't even exist. It's pretty much an embarrassment to the entire country. I wonder how much Murdoch pays them these days?
yeah, you know, we're only about 100 degrees off from that. I'm pretty sure we'll have bigger problems than water boiling at that point. In fact, I don't think we'll even have to worry about heat stroke at that point.
that's the canned crap every candidate has. the verbiage is almost identical across every single state. Not a single actual constituent writes those. It's a database of "We know your stuff is important to you, so read our canned letter" stuff.
