Damn, that s a shitty article. Sourcing a poorly hand drawn illustration of a dinosaur that isn't even relevant to the discussion from Wikimedia commons?

Great. Another chance to make bacteria resistant to something else.
"I'm not a billionaire, but..." I'm not a billionaire, so I don't care what happens to them.
"I don't have a uterus, but..." I have a body, and I support a person's choice how to treat their own body.
"I'm not gay, but..." I can make choices, so I support a person's choice.
"I'll never be under-age again, but..." Haha! You're old! (me too, but meh. Get off my lawn and I'll get off yours.)
Stop telling people what they should value. Either they're smart enough to figure it out, or your high-and-mighty attitude is going to antagonize them into the position opposite of yours. Or they just won't change because they just don't care.
Can we bring up and roll out a kevlar fabric style large mesh device that will orbit in front of the station at a far enough away distance so as not to obscure the field of view and act as an absorber of some of these floating objects?
The idea is that it could be unfurled, catch items and when it is degraded enough, it is deorbited and crashes down into an ocean.
1 million of them is even creepier.
But you can think of it as self imposed containment.

Attending the session was Madiha R Tahir, a journalist studying a language course at the university. She asked the squirming recruiters a few uncomfortable questions about the activities of NSA: which countries the agency considers to be 'adversaries', and if being a good liar is a qualification for getting a job at the NSA.
Following her, others students started to put NSA employees under fire too. A recording of the session is available on Tahir's blog.
If you're going to play semantics, "Mass Destruction" is not equivalent to "Mass Murder". Hell, you don't even need 1 dead person for destruction to happen.
Something tells me the US Military is well aware of what they drop on people and what they were accusing Saddam Hussein of possessing. It wasn't merely that he was alleged to have them, but that he was alleged to have them in contravention of some treaty, wasn't it? The issue wasn't about the items, but about the treaty or punishment or whatever not being followed.
Hopefully never. I see the reality in what you're saying, I just don't want to internalize it.
To ignore them is to passively accept what they're doing. To accept a position of trust, then defy it is treason. It's a Catch-22.
Absolutely wrong.
Treason is working against your nation. He worked for this nation. The enemies of this nation are the traitors he outed.
