You are my new Slashdot hero! How many times do you have to correct people that say the Constitution grants rights, too?

Why should it be illegal if there's nothing preventing the rest of us from doing the same thing?

I'd argue that Adolph Hitler had a lot to do with freeing India from British rule. His six years of war weakened the British too much to be able to put up a fight even against the unarmed Indians. If King Douche (Deutsch?) had never come to power and Britain was as strong as she was in the 1920s, do you really think the UK wouldn't have been able to crush the Indian rebellion in an instant? The Brits would have been wrong to do so, but who'd have stopped them?

Not saying Gandhi wasn't a great man (he was, and deserves the overwhelming majority of the credit given to him), but didn't he also have a quote about how history would look at the British disarming the Indians as one of the blackest things they'd ever done?

Yep, I absolutely agree!

So what you're saying is you don't like the First Amendment? Bold speech on Slashdot ;-)

I see a lot of "if"s about corporations, but the government already does that stuff NOW.

Right, but once the gov't starts screwing you over, it cannot be stopped. Don't want a corporation to screw you over? Stop giving them money. The feds send people to your house with guns when you stop giving them money.

BTW, what makes you think everyone has public water?

Well, democracy has always been two wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner.

Canada wasn't a country in 1814... so how could they burn down the White House?

Oh, I don't drive on an express way for work, this was to go to my GF's house about 2:30 away... so I'd save quite a bit of time.

Especially with the MA state police riding my (butt) because I wasn't going fast enough.

Besides, the more exhaust a turbo receive, the more oxygen gets pumped in, which leads to more power... isn't that the whole point? Most of my friends get less MPG with cars that have noticeably less HP

Do your accurate, reliable and verifiable studies use naturally aspirated engines, supercharged ones, or turbos? Standard, automatic, or CVT? If you have a link (so we're talking about the same study) I really would like to read it. Good info is good info, right?

Driving slower doesn't always mean better fuel economy. Turbos, for example... my car seems to get the same MPG at 50 as it does at 75...

Like all men are potential rapists? Or all women are potential hookers?

Well, NH has much less strict gun laws than MA, and we have a much lower murder rate. So I don't think strict gun laws are the issue.

Well, the head of state of Canada is the Queen of England, so it's kinda a moot point.

Well, now is good but elevators make me airsick...
