"US interceptors carried nuclear armed air to air missiles"
In 1957? Source?

I don't think empathy means what you think it means :)

"You have to be kidding me...
If I want people to get off their fat lazy butts and look for work, I have to do all the work for them?
Really? You said that with a straight face?"

Firstly, is it really that hard to realize that some people may have disabilities (physical, mental, etc.) that may hinder their attempts to look for work, etc. and they need help? Let me guess... Republican?

Secondly, you have to work on finding an employee who meets your requirements too. If you just sit and wait for them to come to you, guess whose ass is lazy?

" A gate which remains open when the immigrants arrive, then lines them up allowing only one immigrant at a time to pass, and allow Nazi concentration camp style selection with a toggle of a switch. Left - work. Right - gas chamber. That way they eliminate the nobles before they can become a problem."

"Noble = death" was more of a Soviet paradigm.

So, you're a perfect human? If not, you must be planning your suicide, right?

Did you hear of reductio ad absurdum? That's what Verhoeven did. Very cleverly. Just like PT Anderson with Boogie Nights.

"Predistination actively embraces time travel paradoxes, taking them to the extreme"
"it's an impossible scenario with no logical resolution"
That's the point. I guess you're not used to smart movies? Not trying to offend. Just asking. It's cool. I know a couple of people smarter than me who aren't into "smart" music, movies or literature.

Great logic. You must be a politician.

"Nearer the back means louder"
Closer to the engines means louder. They're not always in the back of the airplane.
Also, nearer the back means empty seats more often. The last time I flew over the Atlantic, the two seats next to mine were empty - I slept like a king (from a very tiny kingdom, exiled and poor, and having to make sure my feet didn't stick out into the aisle, but nonetheless...).

100% true.
It's like a guy willing only to pay for a VW Beetle when he needs to haul a family of five plus two dogs and the camping gear and so on over 100 miles. Want that? Get a Suburban or the like.

"What I'd like to see is a fee to use the overhead compartment. First checked bag is free; first bag overhead costs you $25. "
Welcome to Frontier Airlines :)
When booked online (more expensive during the check-in), the first checked bag is 25 (then 30 and 75); carry-on - 30. Luckily for me they still allow a free personal item (like a backpack). I always travel light anyway.
The overhead compartments were about 60% empty that last time I flew (November).

"This kind of condemnation isn't uncommon, and if you speak with any Muslim they're all disgusted with these assholes. Do they have to set up billboards?"

I think they do. I would.

"turning entire neighborhoods within France into Sharia-run enclaves"

BS. Examples, please.

Please mod up.

"If I were in charge, I'd task the NSA with catching them, then publicly execute them on TV. While some people will say, "oh, that is overkill and not fair", I'd say, "yea, but it sure will give these criminals pause in the future, won't it?""

Why don't you move to Saudi Arabia or Iran? You'll love it there.
