See you are a perfect example. Look up Somaliland. It's in the north of the "area" know as "Somalia" and it has a pretty functional government.

I think you misunderstood my over generalization. As far as US law goes Assange knowingly released classified material to the public, that is a crime, no argument from me. If you look at the far right or left, they both make gross generalizations in line with their philosophies.

Indian access = India having access to American consumers data, given the amount of interaction we have. CS at your bank send you an email from India help desk, I think India would/could attempt to use that interaction for access. Somebody better be standing up for me! (oh wait, I can do that for myself)

In in the eyes of the Tea Baggers or GOP there is no difference between Al Qaeda and Wikileaks ; They called it "an enemy of the state" and they will apply it to anyone "left" of their position.

They will do it from (now)ex GOP senate leader Murkowski (I live in Anchorage) down. You too can become one, just cross someone that is an angry right-wing voice, it's easy and free [as in beer], I did it last winter [on a very minor and obscure subset of wacko's]. It matters not what the truth is.

Is this a little cannibalistic or just gross?

With a free moment I browse the for sale on Craigslist. If I see something that looks like a very good deal, I check the interwebs for what that price of said item is new. I may not be shopping for that item and only looked at xyz.com for pricing.

All your marketing dollars now belong to us.

My grandmother was on a plane hijacked in the 70's. It was LAX to JFK via layover in SFO. 30 minutes out of LAX a "crazy guy" (not a terrorist) with a gun took the plane over and had the pilots head to HNL. Upon the news over the intercom that the flight would be diverted (and was now a hostage situation) the passenger erupted in applause, apparently it was primarily business travelers. At least it's how Gran told the story. HNL = Honolulu.

Wouldn't it be easier to have a CH-66 slinging a Humvee? Cheaper to? Of course it would carry far more then 4 soldiers, don't want that.

True, a disassembled SBR will still get you in trouble but that does not prevent you from having the upper in proximity to a complete weapon (I am sure you know switching uppers can be done in seconds) or having the "pistol" and having a buffer tube and stock kit (much less expensive but longer to switch).

Why is it that I can own a M4 carbine upper with an 11 inch barrel and do not need a NFA short barrel tax stamp as long as it is not installed on a M4 lower, but it's 10 kinds of law violation to sell a dongle that can jailbreak some specific computer platform? This planet make no sense what's so ever. I am going back to my veal fattening pen and watch some sitcoms.

and I thought I was the only one

No, you are not missing anything. It was Dances with Wolves or Last of the Mohicans or 5th Element or B13 or King Solomon's Mines or Fern Gully or from real life the battle of Wounded Knee or the battle of Sterling or countless other movies or real life sagas. The difference is it had a higher budget that all that put together.

It is totally ok (not that you need my validation) to not like a block buster movie that people are going mental over.

I hated the Titanic, then people made a huge deal out of the Blair Witch project and how scary it was, I saw it in the theaters and people were freaking out. I grew up in the the rural forests (even lived in a tee-pee when I was 3 for a year) with native americans teaching me what to eat, how to hunt (I am not kidding). For the 2nd half of the movie I was laughing my ass off and I was ruining peoples' suspension of disbelief. I was taught to stand your ground in the woods, no matter if it's sprits, bears, escaped convicts or a raiding party.

Live your life, don't worry if you are not moved by a shiny movie. I thought it was ok, but there were holes.

I had a megalomanic for a CEO, who was alway on IT; "what do you do?" "how do you make us money?" So I created a huge spreadsheet of "call tickets" my IT department did. It was added to rather then being weekly or monthly it was just one huge document. and I emailed it every day. You can imagine that he did not read it after scanning it the first day (I just made up the backlog of dates prior to creating the document). This was for a guy who in 2001 wanted me to update his Windows 3 computer to XP BUT make it look exactly the same. He also wanted me to reprogram his cell phone so he would never have to enter his voicemail password. None of this because he was tech savvy or that he knew I was. He just wanted stuff how he wanted it with no consideration for reality or difficulty of his request.

Oh, I loved that job, Now I am the boss and if I want it someway I do it myself.

As another example of how great my job was. I did a lot of work at his house (building it as a smart house), it was this 15,000 sq ft McMansion. The first thing was he said "never ever right do in your report that you worked on my house". The second thing was that one time upon knocking on the door (I often went with the plant engineer to work on the house), we were joking around as we rung the bell and the bosses trophy wife answers the door in a robe "we say avon calling" and she grabs me and says "lets do a demo in the bath I am running". The engineer says "uh, I am just going to the server room and start back on the wiring." - This was one of my more memorable corporate America experiences.

See this is what happens if you smoke pot, you come up with dumb ideas like this. See, you are supposed to make a car that RUNS ON HEMP, not made of it. Frickin pot heads.

I have 1500 rounds of 5.7x28 (FiveseveN), 1000 rounds of 22L (M&P15), 500 rounds of .308 (M110), 300 rounds of 6.8SPC (SPR M4) and 500 rounds of 10mm (Glock 20). I also have an OTV with SAPI plates and a kpod helmet.

I am an avid shooter/hunter and the armor I picked up here and there.

I have an expedition class lorri - modified Nissan Titan (lift, high flotation tires, bull bumper, lights, winch). Love America, but really would it be much different in Africa or Russia? Legality of my gear is on the level, except the OTV, thats a military only item.
