Can confirm. I received an OWI conviction that included 4 days in jail. I paid $75 US a day for my incarceration.
Added bonus: one guy I was locked up with was in for meth production. Of the entire 96 hours, every waking moment I spent I watched this guy pace and listened to him talk about how to make meth. My probation officer asked me how I liked my "experience". I told her "it wasn't a total loss, I learned how to make meth".

had to go back over 300 years to find a war you won?
Here is a comprehensive list of wars involving the US. There are a 'few' on said list described to be victories.
and what did that do to the US ? you've been scared of invasion by the King/Queen ever since, you are allowed to carry guns because your so scared the Brits will come back one day.
I hardly think the US is "scared of invasion by the King/Queen ever since". Last time I checked the US and UK were allies.
On a side note, the 2nd Amendment of the US Constitution (the right to bear arms) is loosely based on the English Bill of Rights 1689.
why not take the same precautions as a result of 9/11, write a declaration of independence, allow you to carry arms to guard against invasion??
Now I have to assume that you are just ignorant in general:
The US already has a Declaration of Independence, and also has the 2nd Amendment (the right to bear arms).
Put it into you constitution, so you can be scared forever. You've done it before, the precedent has already been set.
It is already in our constitution, so you can be safe against your own government.
You've done it before, the precedent has already been set.
According to the report, GCHQ insists that when it's scooping up this kind of data, it's just using it in the aggregate to look up interesting data, connections and trends,...
...and as soon as an individual matches these 'interesting data, connections and trends' they...
...rather than spying on anyone individually, but of course, once they have that data, if someone becomes "of interest", it's not difficult to go back and dig through it.
Still Left-wing != Liberal != Democrat just as Right-wing != Conservative != Republican yet that is how much of the population views the terms due to the conflation of the terms by the politicians that are attempting to manipulate them.
The manipulation is 'a' problem. The fact that the majority of people in the US don't even see the manipulation is 'the' problem.
The answer is to educate people what the terms actually mean, the purpose they are meant to serve as well as their usefulness when understood properly.
Agreed, the problem is: who does the educating?
(I don't have an answer, BTW.)
(And you are my favorite AC: always calm and providing the most eloquent counter-arguments.)
As soon as the words "voluntary interview" came out of the "feds", he should have replied "I do not consent to this interview" and got up and attempted to leave.
FTFY
Excellent advice, but real life is sometimes different. I really doubt that he would've been able to just walk out.

I know it does no good, but you are simply so vacuous and offensive that it feels right to do so.
