What you say did happen, and it wasn't considered treason. Presser vs Ill., an important 2nd amendment case.
From wiki...
The indictment charged in substance that Presser, on September 24, 1879, in the county of Cook, in the State of Illinois, "did unlawfully belong to, and did parade and drill in the city of Chicago with an unauthorized body of men with arms, who had associated themselves together as a military company and organization, without having a license from the Governor, and not being a part of, or belonging to, 'the regular organized volunteer militia' of the State of Illinois, or the troops of the United States." A motion to quash the indictment was overruled. Presser then pleaded not guilty, and both parties having waived a jury the case was tried by the court, which found Presser guilty and sentenced him to pay a fine of $10.
Basically, Presser,
In December 1879, marched at the head of said company, about four hundred in number, in the streets of the city of Chicago, he riding on horseback and in command; that the company was armed with rifles and Presser with a cavalry sword; that the company had no license from the governor of Illinois to drill or parade as a part of the militia of the State, and was not a part of the regular organized militia of the State, nor a part of troops of the United States, and had no organization under the militia law of the United States.
TLDR if there ever was one
You're forgetting the 4 people in Texas who tested positive for ebola in 1990 who never had symptoms.
by infected, I mean tested positive for ebola
If I remember my documentary correct, several of the people who worked there were infected by the airborne ebola but never demonstrated symptoms.
That would be like pushing an experimental kernel as a stable one. Public policy should be the result of experiments, not the experiment. Though I don't think this happens.
We all know (or should know) public policy is written by issue specific think tanks with an agenda. An experiment presumes a curiosity about the outcome. People writing policy know which way they want "the experiment" to go. When HCI/Brady group write gun control legislation, they have no desire to see the net effects of their legislation (if they truly did, they'd abandon their gun control stance).
Not quite. Chernobyl was caused by operators not understanding the reactor's function in low power situations which happened to be during a test to see if the cooling system would work in the time after the core shut down but before the diesel generators were back up. They brought the power levels too low to where the reactor was nearly shut down, then to raise it back up they brought the control rods all the way out creating hot spots. Then when the power came on too strong, the response was to lower the control rods, which in a very hot reactor actually does the opposite- causes a huge reaction.

At least the folks in the Soviet bloc knew the media was state controlled and was lying to them.
... Not giving them weapons? As an American Citizen, I'd be serving perhaps 10 years for possessing an M16 machine gun that we were just giving to the Iraqis. When 2nd amendment debates pop up, few people say citizens should be allowed to own tanks, MRAPS etc, but are ok with giving it to a 3rd world country (where many of the Iraqi Army soldiers turned on us as soon as we armed them).
Also there's people that don't like how cameramen video the event. Worst is the NBA. The camera gets caught following the ball around and its tough to see the other 9 players. Or when they zoom in on the ball at its being shot so it fills the screen, but the cameraman isn't good enough to keep it centered and it moves all over the screen.
I bet half of ar15.com is on that list.
While that is true, the federal govt doesn't have police powers beyond regulating commerce among the states. General police powers are left to the state. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U...
But NSA doesn't seem to abide by any law, according to this reddit article, they ran a child porn server for quite some time, to catch pedophiles. http://www.reddit.com/r/TOR/co...
He is correct, doesn't matter who appointed them. A liberal is a liberal. Right wing is quite disappointed in their picks.
One small step for man, one giant stumble for mankind.
