Over a hundred people die in car accidents a day in the US alone. Millions are seriously injured in the US each year. It's the 9th leading cause of death worldwide. And those numbers would be a lot worse if it weren't fro drivers licences. A car is a 2 ton death machine filmed with flammable liquid capable of traveling at very high speeds, on roads filled with countless others like it.
It's just common sense to make sure that drivers have a minimum level of skill.
What exactly the constitution does and doesn't allow is up to interpretation. And there haven't been court rulings on whether Civil asset forfeiture violates those amendments. Currently civil asset forfeiture is legal. You haven't give proper evidence of why all the cops would flat out ignore any new rules.
And you haven't given any alternate suggestions yourself. All you've done is throw around unprovoked insults.
Equifax only as a revenue of a little over $3 billion a year. That means if they were to give a mere TWENTY DOLLARS to each person who has had their information leaked it would cost them nearly their ENTIRE YEARLY REVENUE. Equifax is fucked.
While in comparison the UK police managed to go a TWO YEAR PERIOD without fatally shooting a single person. The average for the last decade is only 2 a year. Compared to the US rate of about a THOUSAND a year for the last few years. If the UK is able to have the per capita rate of citizens being fatally shot by police officers be a hundred times lower then the US, then can you really say the US police are doing a good job.
NO ONE here is attempting to justify the actions of terrorists. And I don't know how you can possibly be getting the impression that anyone is. Their simply pointing out blind vengeance is not the best method of preventing future terrorists attacks.
Except you being removed from that specific situation would not help at all. But you being removed from the driving situation would allow the other cars to reach their destination faster.
The reason that Clintons doesn't get called out nearly as much is that her lies aren't nearly as ridiculous as Trumps. Their more believable as her advisors make sure that when she lies she usually doesn't say stuff that can be easily fact checked.
Except when It's a cop's word against a civilians, the cop is almost always assumed to be the one telling the truth. Cops rarely receive ANY punishment WHAT SO EVER for shoot a civilian unless there is VERY strong evidence against them. Without video evidence it's unlikely that the cop will get disciplined let out prosecuted.
As you can see from this article and others, unless there are enforced penalties for not using dash cams and body cams, they rarely get turned on when needed.
If most cops really were good cops, then bad cops would rarely get away with abusing innocent civilians, as their squad mates wouldn't protect them and the higher ups would do proper investigations.
The people at Techdirt are against regulation more often then not. But there are certain regulations that the people at tech dirt are in favour of. It's as simple as that.
And what if one of the engineers working on the custom IOS is bribed intimated or blackmailed by a criminal organisation, terrorist group or foreign government into giving them the code. What then?
Especially as the IOS would have to be tested throughly before being used. And it's NOT just one phone. As the FBI has many other phones they want to unlock and are just using this as a precedent.
First WRONG FUCKING THREAD. Second, If I pirate, I don't even up with restrictive DRM. Which means sometimes the value of the pirated stuff can be HIGHER if the legal version has DRM.
Ideally a CC-BY-SA would work for most purposes. Big corporations are going to be far more reluctant to license works they make under a CC-BY-SA license then amateur artists. So the share alike part is going to be more of a barrier to businesses.
And if they made their workers work more hours they'd have to pay each worker more. Especially as for low income workers any hour after the 40th is considered overtime and pays at 1.5x the rate. So this wouldn't work.
