The Police work for The State. The State's job is to prove guilt - er, sorry - convince a jury, comprised of the lowest common denominator, of guilt despite any evidence to the contrary.

The State would not collect DNA to try to prove innocence, as that is not their job.

If you don't want to live by the rules of an HOA, don't buy a house that is subject to them. It's not as if you don't have a choice.

The dumb ideas come from dumb people with money - politicians.

Innocent motorists are routinely relieved of their cash and belongings by police, without ever being charged with a crime, and with no recourse to recover their stolen property.

They should just extradite him to the US along with all of his seized property, and then the US government can just keep it forever under its insane civil forfeiture laws.

Yes, as a matter of fact, I routinely drive from Greenville SC to Washington DC without stopping.

They were probably just late having their d'Arsenval meter movements calibrated to 0.1% accuracy.

Because there are no consequences for ignoring such an order, and our government officials are never held accountable for criminal acts while in office, they will simply just ignore this order like they have ignored the last several.

I am NOT stopping for 30 minutes every "half tank" on a 3000 mile road trip from LA to NY.

Fuck no.

When an EV can go 500 miles on a charge and refill in 5 minutes, then we'll talk.

All a nuclear device would do in space is heat it up, pretty rapidly, maybe enough to thermal-stress-fracture it into several pieces, but nevertheless a nuclear weapon in space is not going to blow an asteroid (or anything else) to bits.

Like most ultra-left-wing radical groups, they love the idea of Saving All The Animals(TM), as long as it's someone else that has to do the work.

We used to have some liberal asshat who worked in our office, and she would constantly go around showing pictures of animals at the local shelter who needed foster homes. One day I asked her how many dogs she was fostering at home and she said, in a perfect sorority girl tone of voice "oh, I can't foster. I don't have time to take care of them."

Liberals LOVE the *idea* of people making sacrifices for the benefit of others, as long as it is the OTHERS who are making the sacrifices.

PETA is a fundraising organization, not an animal welfare organization. They don't give two shits about animals. They only care about raising money to help foist their agenda on others.

I believe that, in this context, "to fix" means to set, make rigid or permanent, or to make fixed.

Fuck, don't forget smart meters, cell phones, triclosan, non-recycled toilet paper, fast food, Monsanto, and sodas larger than 16 ounces.

Look, there's no reason to get all amped up over this merger. Qi is clearly leading the charge in the market, so in order to offer any resistance, Duracell had to do this. The field is very dynamic and variant right now, so let's just hope that once it settles down to one dominant technology, it doesn't go all stagnant and stop working altogether.
