  1. Sounds like something I could hear Johnny Cash singing (stealing? pretending?) witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  2. Darius, Bush won Florida. Get over it. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  3. That's just it, these kidnappers already blinked first. They pushed back their deadline and said "ok, last chance, pull out or else (again)" why give them back the advantage when they turned first? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  4. Then you're living in a dream world and unable to reconcile your wishes with the cold hard facts of reality. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  5. Anything not involving a solid cloud layer, pelting rain, or hurricane force winds. Yeah, I need to jump, BAD. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

  8. I don't know the song, but reading it I could hear the music that might go to it, along with the marching song/distinct beat quality. ps - funny as all get out witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  9. how did you get that out of his post? Looks to me like he doesn't go for self sacrifice or non-negotiation with terrorists. That's why I posted the song lyric. Oh, and just to put it out there, I have many friends serving in various branches. Also, you don't enlist to protect US citizens, you enlist to do what you're told to do anywhere you're told to do it. If you want to join up to protect the US, join the National Guard or your local police force. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  10. And that's why you choose not to serve. So be it. "and I don't want to die for you, but if dyin's asked of me I'll bear that cross with honor, cause freedom don't come free" At a personal level, I would want my friend or family back as well. In government, one must look at the bigger picture, i.e. what happens next time? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  11. Men in Black and Tan? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  12. No, I'm saying let the voters decide, and they will decide on a myriad of factors, unless there is some terrible event just prior to the election. Who says attacks on America will stop if we pull out? What a bunch of nonsense. Attacks may stop on one front, but that will just make the other fronts much more dangerous for the US. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  13. bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, BING !!! We have a winner Johnny! witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  14. Maybe I'm thinking of the wrong one...... edit: No, SVU has the cute detective, the medical examiner, oh yeah, you're right, the blonde is SVU. I must've mixed up CI with SUV. OK, so which series has the better detectives? edit again: no, I was right, the not very cute one is the normal lawyer for SVU, the blond is only back for a few episodes. http://www.nbc.com/Law_&_Order:_Special_Victims_Unit/bios/index.html witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  15. His post was a statement on the lack of causation, connection, and sufficient facts in your question. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  16. Right, I'm sure it would come to mililtia marching on Washington with no pause for thought or non-violent methods. Do you think gun owners want violence? that gun owners want violent overthrow and revolution? I was reading about this new medical condition, cranial-something-inversion... witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  17. Depends. In your hypothetical, was there a large terrorist attack on the US and is Kerry saying he'll pull out all troops? Is he pulling out all troops to prevent a beheading? If that's the case, and he is elected, you're damn right I would be saying the US electorate has no backbone, and I would probably cry in wonder of what happened to my country. I would also be preparing things I hope never to have to prepare. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  18. There's the one on SVU, but she's kinda skinny and homely for my tastes. Well, there's always reruns on USA. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  19. These terrorists were less committed than even the previous pieces of shit abducting people in Iraq. They did not follow through on their deadline. Manila should have stood up and told the kidnappers to give back the hostage or else. Now they took a weak group and strengthened them, and encouraged them to continue taking hostages to convince other governments. If each government stood up and said we will not buckle, the kidnappings/beheadings would stop. Now, it has worked, so let's go do it again (kind of like the bombing in Spain and the perceived threat of bombings in November). witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

    Kev, every possible dispute over children sucks for the father because courts give unreasonable preference to the mother. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  21. But they got rid of the hot lawyer chicks on Law & Order. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  22. The statndard for a Terry stop is RAS: Reasonable Atriculable Suspicion. It has to be something more than "I didn't like the looks of him" or "He didn't belong there." And Kev, as much as I agree the Supremes screwed up with the ruling about ID stops, that instance was about a person suspected of a crime, not just someone off the street. I haven't read the entire ruling, and I doubt they bothered to make this much sense, but they very easily could have said for this sort of ID stop, an investigator must have X level of certainty (none, RAS, PC). In that case (The ID checks) I don't believe the officer had RAS to believe the man had committed a crime. My understanding is that the officer was called to the scene for an argument between a man and a woman. However, the court ruled that a person must show ID to an investigating officer. A very scary line they are toeing... witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  23. Yeah, but you're going to the WFFC with no prospect for sex. NYAH. edit: I'll be ritualistically beating myself for not getting out of a shitty situation much, much sooner, and thus reducing chances of wffc to effectively zero. ps - going fetal on a tile floor isnt out of the question. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  24. Incorrect. Not to you perhaps. If I can't go about my business, I'm being detained. Note that this is not the same as arrested. And anyone claiming that they don't mind the inconvenience of being held up for 15 minutes without cause is someone who never has to worry about it happening. No. You are incorrect. Legally, according to the Supreme Court, just because a cop is talking to you and hasn't specifically told you that you're free to go, it doesn't mean you're legally detained. At any point you can tell the cop to go to hell and go on about your business. If he stops you from leaving at that point, he needs a good reason. Up until then, he can ask you anything he wants. Just because you don't know your rights, don't blame it on law enforcement officers. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  25. That was cheesy witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
