Discriminating against poor people. That's how that would be spun, anyway.

I learned less from the Minnesota Starvation Experiment than I did from the Minnesota Spankological Protocol.

Then they serve no real purpose. If he can turn it on and off at will, he'll just turn it off when he wants to do something illegal.

And many people, incl. many here, want them on all the time, no exceptions, to prevent exactly that.

1. Your house is broken into
2. Cop shows up to investigate, wearing his cam
3. The front of your house, then the inside is recorded on his cam.

Public record or not? Can anyone request this footage, yes or no? The argument could be made either way.

Yes, I read that.
Do you wish to have employer provided time for this? Think about that for a second or two.

It's open before you go to work, and/or after you get off. What's the problem?

I can go down the street to Walmart and Lowes, and for under $100, buy materials to seed my yard with OMG !! landmines. Probably won't kill you, but it will slow you down.

Should we close those stores as well?
(well, probably, but not for those reasons)

And what are the immigration policies like to move to rural Finland?
