I've seen someone walk through security with a nearly full bottle of iced tea. He had forgotten he had it on him and the screeners never even caught it.
$30 a month isn't affordable?
But then you have to take into account that we are hardwired to be communal creatures. We can never have true liberty because our biology pushes us to fit in with others. As history has shown groupthink is very dangerous and stupid. Government will always be needed because we are not rational beings. The whole reason people want the latest iShiny isn't because they have researched all the options and know that it is the best; it's that everyone is getting it.
Defaulting to self regulation imo is as bad as defaulting to government regulation.
It's public so I'm assuming that it has more to do with inane government regulations than someone actually thinking.
I am currently working on a very large project to replace hundreds of switches on my campus. Naturally part of this involves finding them first and sometimes it can be challenging because the building has no sane numbering system. Of course, the easy method would be to simply look at the plans, but nobody in the entire network operations group has access to them. The reason: 9/11.
Oh I know that nobody needs a 2880x1800 screen (myself included) and that most people are just fine with 1366x768. It's just that I have a laptop with a 1366x768 screen and I do real work on it and it's far too cramped. I make do with it because it's what I've got but if I had room in my budget for something with a screen resolution bigger than 1366x768 I'd buy it.
A laptop with a screen like that isn't designed for real work.
Yet the government tries to do that and "libertarians" cry foul.
Libertarianism is based upon a false premise; it assumes humans are fully informed rational beings. The reality is that we are never fully informed which forces us to rely on irrational things like emotions.
According to my grandpa (who was part of the postwar "cleanup crew" in korea), they weren't even allowed to sell the stuff to the locals. It all had to be destroyed.
I have no idea if this story is true, but reportedly old Cadillacs contained a couple hundred pounds of lead weights just to make the ride smoother.
Having seen the full video, I can come to only one conclusion: the video does not show any solid evidence of injuries because the quality is low. I saw some things that may have been injuries, but they could have just as easily been due to the shape of his head.
By the way, Sanford has put up the videos and 911 calls at http://sanfordfl.gov/investigation/trayvon_martin.html
