Comment Re:Trayvon Martin can Life Forever (Score 2) 588

Trayvon was let down.

He was let down by his parents for not raising him properly. He was let down by his communities lack morals. He was let down by societies glorification of "the Thug Life".

He never had a chance to become a decent man. Family, Community, Federal Government and the Press all conspired to turn him into a violent and irresponsible person who was taught to blame white males for every problem he saw.

Teaching of personal responsibility would have created a Trayvon that not only would have never died that night, but one that could have been a benefit to his community. We lose good black men and women everyday to the teachings of Jacksons and Sharptons.

It really was a shame that Trayvon had to die that night. A much bigger shame is all the other young black men that will die this year and next.

How about the NSA do its fucking job.

Spy on foreign governments and foreign citizens. They need to stay the fuck away from Citizens of the United States of America. Spying on Americans is what other governments are for.

The NSA is operating far outside of its charter. Put them straight.

Hmm... I have a creeping feeling the NSA has already introduced a vulnerability into the rot13! If you click on encrypt twice the original contents are revealed!

Insidious!

Hit it a third time and we're all secure again! Quick!

ROT-13 has been cracked for years... I'd never use anything smaller than ROT-273 these days.

I use ROT-273 X2!

You can not fix stupid. You have to kill stupid to keep stupid from breeding.

Unfortunately one of the attributes of stupid is to breed early. Killing children is generally frowned upon.

Short answer is ... We are fucked.

You do not need to have an FDA. We could just as easily get by with a private organization that certifies food and drugs as safe. The same way UL does. Bureaucracy is evil because they suck way more out of innovation and the economy than they need to. They kill jobs, slow innovation and hurt people all in the name of paperwork.

The FDA banning a drug for a child dying of cancer because its safety has not been established is evil and stupid. As long as the parents and or the child knows that it could be unsafe they should have the right to attempt to live. Bureaucracy stops that. Bureaucracy at the FDA kills people for paperwork. Bureaucracy allows bad drugs to be marketed if the paperwork is filled out. Bureaucracy is an attempt to make intelligent and fair decisions by taking all though out of the decision and hoping that well written paperwork will fix it.

It does not. It just allows people to not care about the decisions they make because "They" are not making them. So they can allow evil to happen to others if the "Paperwork/Rules" say it is so.

Bureaucracies take the humanity out of decisions and therefore do evil. If you do not believe me thing of DMVs. A person that is a really good driver that takes his hands off the wheel too many times is not given a license. A person that barely squeaks through the test but the inspector can tell that they have no business on the road are given their papers to go out and kill on the road. They passed the test. "What could I do?"

Also bureaucracies kill the drive of the people working in them. You move up by filling out the forms and moving on. Finding problems and attempting to fix them is just "Making trouble". The creation of loads of government bureaucratic drones from caring, driven, human stock is evil. For what they do to those using them and those working within them, a bureaucracy is evil. It's intentions may be good but whenever possible replace them.
