What exactly makes it an unreasonable search?

Are you not voluntarily accepting this? If not, sorry you can't take the test and must go to a testing center.

If this were a private school (I didn't read the story...shocker, I know), the school is not an arm of the government, and that's what your constitutional rights protect you from. Similar to how your free speech can be blocked on web sites not owned by; the government.

At some point, most of us need a replacement vehicle. Sure, we can wait a bit longer, or buy a used one, but someone is going to be buying those cars and right now, demand pressure has built up, allowing dealerships to mark up prices.

Not entirely, but I don't like them either. At least you get feedback to let you know you've actually pushed the "button"

I think this may make it twice that we've been in full agreement. Oh my!!!

You'll get the results that paid us.

The difference is that we were heavily reliant on SA for not only oil, but military needs in the Middle East. You can claim it's all about profits if you like (you're wrong, but whatever). You can't just kick our "oil addiction" either. It's not a switch to be flipped, it taking years, just to get people out of their gas guzzlers, even paying triple at the fuel pumps.

Let's see, you're already experiencing extreme energy issues thanks to stupid moves like buying Russian oil, and now having to pay those consequences. Let's shoot the other foot, and piss off the Saudis too. Yeah, SA sucks at human rights, are we going to do more than say we don't like that, fuck no.

"Death penalty doesn’t mean anything unless you use it on people who are afraid to die. "

  It's not about them, it's about setting examples for others to not get into that. You only need to take a look at high profile sentencing where judges frequently make examples out of those people.

"Even if there is a collision, the rule of three applies: Once is an accident, Twice is a coincidence, Three times is enemy action."

Maybe for public consumption. But, there are no real accidents on this level of international recon. Only denial and deception.

You've clearly not spent much time around the military.

It would be great to avoid war with Russia. But, do you really believe that peace is achievable with Putin? Sorry (not sorry), but I'm not of the Neville Chamberlain ilk.

Sure, all ~2800 of them. Get real.

So, monitoring what your enemies are doing is a bad thing, right?

Until we live in fucking Utopia, unless you're prepared to live under authoritarian rule of someone like Putin, you best learn to be a bit more pragmatic.

"Money are an abstraction, exact numbers don't matter,..."

The Kool-Aid is strong with this one.

Who pays for these kind of "studies"? Was there ever any question that knowing rich people, spending time with them, learning their habits, etc., wouldn't rub off on the unwashed who share time with them?
