If it was a racist white-hooded rally that wanted to be photographed and a black photographer refused, would you have objected?
"Stop imagining up fringe cases"
i.e. "his logic is correct"
They believe participating in it would be celebrating and giving approval of something they don't approve of.
Our imagination does not give us "surely". The only thing they are sure about is how life works with water on Earth, which is why they are looking for water.
At some point, if you can't find a job, you need for the greater good to settle for what you can find. For example, after the construction bubble popped in housing, should we just keep construction workers on permanent unemployment? Or should we encourage them to do something different with their lives?
Bees hate having sensors on their backs.
I'm questioning how this wrecks bilateral relations if America does it when the other side is doing the same thing.
Spying on foreign citizens is completely constitutional.
News flash: Europeans spy on American companies.
We also get rights from nature (the right to protect ourself) or if you don't like that from English common law, which would include the right to self-defense. Or defence. Or some other British variant spelling
But the main point is not everything has to be explicitly in the Constitution for it to be a right.
You take the 17 year pause in global warming and then you look at how many of those 97% of scientists predicted it, and then you come to the conclusion that maybe people don't know all the thousands of variables and calculations needed to be so certain. No need to consider orbital variations when you have actual data and predictions that didn't come true to work with.
Considering the Arctic has 75% more ice than last year, I'll say I don't know. And since we know there's been no warming in 17 years, maybe some unknown other cause should be considered a possibility.
What you are seeing is years and years of people planting the seeds of envy sprouting.
I guarantee you that our "friends" spy on us, especially for economic information. The problem I have with the NSA is that they spy on American citizens. It is THEIR JOB to spy on foreign citizens and governments.
It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
