People are entirely too hung up on loyalty to the invisible lines. I have no real loyalty to my country past wanting it to do the right thing for its people. I didn't choose to be born here, it was an accident of birth and I certainly don't let borders limit my possibilities.

Unless you are one of thousands of military families or the communities that support them... I grew up living in PMQ's (Private Married Quarters) and the communities are quite large and usually bilingual. In Victoria I had plenty of opportunity to speak french and keep in practice.

If you were raised in Canada, there really is no one but yourself to blame if you don't know french. Why anyone would rail against the opportunity to be bilingual is beyond me. BTW, its not just Quebec that made french one of our national languages, LARGE parts of Ontario and half the maritimes are also mostly bilingual. Its just the right wing in Canada that likes to point fingers at them.

The "industry" did themselves far more harm than good with this whole fiasco. People hated them, now they not only hate them, but want their blood. This is going to change a lot more than people think.

Its time to get US lobbies out of Canada. By force if necessary. Too many times politicians have bowed to US pressure and gone against the wishes of Canadians. Enough is enough.

Because they will have to test in the US thanks to Canada's thrice as stringent rules about drug testing and approval. Many drugs that are legal in the US (and many that WERE legal and removed after being found dangerous) are not legal in Canada.

Except for this is kind of a common sense feature... they have also tried to go after tablet makers for using a rectangular shape with rounded corners... where does it end?

Well, since the media is utterly UNRELIABLE in the extreme, anything is more reliable than they are these days.

More reliable than the media.

I don't think people really care much either way. Of course there will be a small percentage that are concerned about the source of the code, but in general most people just don't care. If they can download it from TPB and it works, they'll use it.

But he's right, the majority of "Anon" ARE btards... thats why this story makes no real sense. The authorities are chasing ghosts. This will change nothing at all.

I totally agree, accept for the 4chan part... if I found out my kids were visiting 4chan, I might have to remove their eyeballs...

The one in ten that are "addicted" to video games are the normal one in ten that have mental issues, and the video game addictions are just symptoms of the problems they would have anyway? Before video games there were plenty of other reasons to neglect school and chores... I know I came up with plenty of them as a child.

OK, well maybe I should have pointed out that VIOLENT crime has gone DOWN here every single year since '75 as well. MOST gun deaths by far in the US are accidental BTW, not murders. So either way, less guns, less death. Better?

Where I live there are very strict gun laws, and gun crimes are very low compared to just a couple hours south of me in the US. Even taking the population density difference into account, there is a very distinct difference between our two countries when it comes to gun deaths. I have lived in the US, and in a couple of European countries and I think the major difference is not just the availability of guns (though more guns = more gun deaths is a given) but the attitude towards guns and gun violence in the US is really a scary thing to behold.
