Reminds me of a quote, "In the land of the blind the one-eyed man is king."

The ones with the drive and motivation generally exploit the genius of the highly intelligent. Knowledge is a tool but it takes someone who knows how to use that tool.

Like no one knew?

Then why didn't they shoot his ass out of the sky? A 12 Gauge pump shotgun would have sufficed.

You do know he'd been talking about this stunt for weeks don't you? He's been telling all kinds of people what he was going to do. They had a report in the Miami press about it before he did it and then......he did it. WTF??? This shows you how fucking stupid Al Qaeda and ISIS are. If a simple minded fucker in a letter carrier's jacket can fly over the fence at the White House and the terrorists can't, then evidently the fucking terrorists are more incompetent than the White House security team. Thank God for that.

I can't believe no one shot him as he came over the fence. What the fuck is wrong with White House security? We shouldn't need a trial if they'd plugged him like they should have. Now they'll spend 50 million dollars on a media circus and then the taxpayers will get to keep his ass up for 4 years.

Maybe even their own country.

Redundancy in government. It's a common theme.

The judges in my county ban people from entering the county a lot. It's one of their favorite things to do. Basically it keeps us from having to keep them up in jail. They get probation and a "get the hell out and stay out" order. If they come back they stuff them in jail to do their sentence. Works like a charm, they move on up the road and become someone else problem.

"Microsoft alleges that Google's anti-competitive practices include stopping Bing from indexing content on Google-owned YouTube; blocking Microsoft Windows smartphones from "operating properly" with YouTube; blocking access to content owned by book publishers; and limiting the flow of ad campaign information back to advertisers, making it more expensive to run ads with rivals."

The kinds of actions that Microsoft has been doing for almost 3 decades and still does today. Yes, MS is an expert on dirty competition and using it's monopolistic position to squash any sort of competition. I can't really defend Google but I have to say I'm absolutely flabbergasted at the nerve MS has to accuse Google of anything. It's like Charles Manson accusing Aaron Hernandez of murder. The Gall.

Idiot. Why do you fools keep buying into that nonsense? There is only one party in Washington, the money party. It shows two faces to make foolish morons like you think they have a choice.

If you have two equally qualified candidates then you use the one that is most advantageous to your organization. Considering the pressure companies are under for the lack of women in STEM positions you'd be a fool not to take the opportunity to even things up as much as possible thus taking pressure off you and your organization. I'd go so far as to say if the minority or female candidate was nearly as qualified they would most likely be snapped up. The only way I'd hire a white male would be if he was unquestionably better than the other applicants. Business is business.

How about they just hire eunuchs? Problem solved.

They've been doing this same stuff for decades. Before the Islamic nutcases it was other groups like the so called home grown "militia" groups. They infiltrated one local group of idiots here that just got together to shoot guns, drink beer and bitch about the government. Impatient with the fact that the pussies weren't ever going to do shit they got their inside guy to show them how to make a bomb, then he helped them get the stuff to make one and then after that he helped them make it. Since they were too big a bunch of pussies (or just not really that crazy) to use the thing they only got to prosecute for "conspiracy." I didn't feel much pity for them as they were a sad group of morons but what a waste of money.

Exactly what should have happened here. Look what the idiots made it into. They turned a kids prank into a terror alert. The people responsible should never be allowed anywhere near education of children again.
