Medical facts are on their side. You simply cannot go from cancer free to death by esophageal cancer in this timeframe. That means he was already developing it before the tsunami.
On the other hand, you handed it a bogus video to play. The best it can do is pop up an error message and/or skip it. There is already some degree of disruption inherent in the situation.
What other institution than government can you possibly lobby?
I'm not clear. Is the claim "Card is a homophobe" not correct?
Absolutely. Dune is up there with Tolkien's Middle Earth work in world creation. Not just one of the great pieces of American SF, but one of the great pieces of SF, period.
Usually exploit and DOS are two separate categories. DOS is limited in it's impact (though it can be a serious problems in some cases) compared to exploit, the ability to use the program to gain privileges and/or run malicious code.
No, what I am saying is that, if you're brandishing a weapon in public you are... breaking the law. If you are breaking the law, the person will be much better served by calling the police with his phone, than by putting an update into this gun tracking website.
Except most (if not all) of the relevant laws do not result in that person no longer being allowed to own a gun, thanks in no small part to the gun lobby. Drunken shooter discharges his weapon in a residential area, the police come, the shooter pays a fine, and then the shooter is free to continue drinking and owning a gun. Short of a repeal of the Second Amendment, calling the police may accomplish something this time but will not prevent the situation from happening again in the future. The only solution left is to not be around if and when the shooter decides to go drunk shooting again, which is what this geotagging facilitates.
The problem with dogfighting a drone is that mutual destruction is a viable tactic for the drone.
Their walking around with a round in the chamber and the safety off makes them dangerous.
Their keeping a loaded gun on the kitchen table around children makes them dangerous.
Their shooting their gun into the air during a holiday celebration makes them dangerous.
Their pointing a gun they "know" is unloaded at anybody makes them dangerous.
Saying "mean things" about them doesn't make them dangerous, unless they feel the need to buy more guns to assuage their hurt feelings.
Marriage is not a "human right".
Wrong. Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 16, section 1:
"Men and women of full age, without any limitation due to race, nationality or religion, have the right to marry and to found a family."
