Overrated is not Disagree. Read the FAQ
Concentrate more on promoting than on demoting. Try to be impartial about this; simply disagreeing with a comment is not a valid reason to mark it down. The goal here is to share ideas, to sift through the haystack and find needles, and to keep spammers and griefers in check.
Sometimes comments are disproportionately up-moderatedâ"this probably means several moderators saw it at nearly the same time, and their cumulative scores exaggerated its merit. (Example: A knock-knock joke at +5, Funny.) Such a comment is Overrated.
The one reply to this so far is nothing more than an expression of disgust; but that's better than modding down. Remember, dear moderators, there is no -1 Disagree mod. The other negative mods are not there as substitutes. It was left out on purpose. If you want to refute the parent, put forth an argument.
That might actually be useful if 1. The person being searched believes it works. 2. The person doing the searching knows how to read the expressions and gestures of the person being searched.
I'm given to understand that the highly effective Israeli airport security uses that kind of technique, although AFAIK props aren't involved. They ask you a question and it's not so much the answer they're looking for as it is the way you answer.

But different action on a persons will have different probability of death. That what it means, and it should have been obvious to you.
Too damn bad. Years of abuse make you point irrelevant.
On the clock? Then you should be recording.
Taking a pee? I think the internet can handle a camera looking at a toilet while someone is peeing.
Good.
I say that as someone who has been let off the hook many times.
However, 'letting people off the hook' simple means the officer picks and chooses based on a bias.
The San Francisco valley is now a bay. The great barrier kangaroo hunting grounds have been flooded. The Siberian land bridge has been submerged. Irreversible, horrible, and irreparably damaged. Damaged I say! Worse yet, there will be no Frost Faire on the Thames this year.
In some case, it will be top down. This will be in things like, building codes, emission guidlines etc.
If it gets too bad, then I will be all for a top down solution involving guns and the removal of corporate charters.
This is like 97% of all astronomers saying , there is a dark asteroid coming in a couple a hundred years the size of australia, we need to take action. And then large corporation and anti tax groups say 'no it isn't'. And 'your model isn't 100% perfect, therefor it's wrong and invalid!" and people saying. I'll believe it when I see it!" even though it will be too late to do anything about it.
In that case, I would also support taking action, even if it had to be a forced action.
This isn't about a different of opinion on a sports team, or tax code, or privacy. Its about something that will make all the irrelevant if we don't take action now.
