Lets all minimize first world problems. Because the third world is what is important. They drive innovation and bring up the world as a whole on their shoulders. Fuck every short sighted piece of shit that thinks their good feelings will solve the issues of the world. They are easy to spot via their use of the term "First World Problems."

Sure. The problem is not enough police. Make sure there is one in sight of everything and all will be well. Crime happens where the public denies their own responsibility in keeping their community safe. We sit around and record violent crimes with our cameras hoping the police will show up soon. Police for the most part do not stop your house from being robbed or you from being murdered. They just try to solve the crime after it happens. The more responsible the public becomes for their own safety the better off we will be. Then the police can do their jobs effectively.

Conversely it would be better if the outside of beer glasses were more hydrophilic, because the longer every drop of water can be delayed from rolling off the surface and leaving more room for condensation to take place, the more time we would have to drink the beer at a suitably low temperature.

Beer cozy?

Naw, I'm preeeetty sure they were inside an aircraft doing parabolic flight patterns to counter gravity and create simulated weightlessness ;) The effect is the same, but the cause is very different (gravity is still acting on the plane and it's occupants, which you'd notice quickly if it made a sudden leveling or climb)

In orbit. Just as in parabolic flight gravity is still acting on everyone. It really is pretty much the same. You are falling at the exact rate gravity is pulling on you in parabolic arc flight or in orbit.

I clearly understand what is happening and have agreed to it. It is not difficult. I get adds that do not flash in my face advertising Viagra and really decent SPAM filtering. They get more money per ad than by hitting me with generic ads. We are all happy.

The only people bitching are those who, for some reason, have chosen not to understand. Remember we must protect the stupid from themselves at all costs.

Even if we can no longer have Lawn Darts and have to drink cold coffee.

If you look at how Big Business rules your life you will see that it is because they use government regulations to restrict your freedoms. Reduce the power of the government to restrict your freedoms and you shrink the size of the hammer that big business is using to pound you into the dirt.

First. Again. All revenue bills must originate in the House. Not the Senate. They passed it as not a tax because of this. Once the Supreme court ruled that they could do it because of taxing powers they should have struck it down due to the House not originating it. Congress could then go back and pass it constitutionally. that is not what happened.

Deciding you want Government health care should not mean that you are ok with them doing what ever it takes to give it to you.

So. Are you arguing that revenue bills do not need to be started in the house? or, The health care act is not a tax? or That it does not matter if it is constitutional or not, It is a good idea and therefore what ever they need to do legal or not is fine?

It does not matter to me if an Activist judge is a lib ignoring that all revenue bills must originate in the house to make the Health Care Act legal or if it a conservative activist judge telling me that the NSA can do what ever it wants. The border regions where I can be searched and my laptop taken with no recourse. The US Supreme court is taking our freedoms, The ENTIRE court. Not just the left leaning ones or the right leaning ones. Every one of those fuckers are treasonous bastards.

If it makes you feel better you can write me off as a non thinker who gets his marching orders from Limbaugh, Hannity or Fox News.

The thing that makes it sound like you take marching orders from those people is not what you believe in, it's that you blame what's happening on "the liberals". The so-called conservatives are every bit as bad and do just as much albeit with a marginally different flavour.

Umm. Read. Look at my posts. I make it pretty clear I feel that both the libs and the cons are ruining this country. That the Supreme Court Justices are activist judges on one side of the aisle or the other. That everyone of them have no intention of adhering to their oath from the moment they take it. Look at what I said as the GGP of your post. So again. If you you think that I am a Republican loving cow that gets every thought from Fox news you are wrong. You are not wrong because you lack information. You are wrong in spite of having proof of it right in front of your face.

Knowingly wrong is something we already have a word for. Frankly it leads me to distrust anything you say.

Unreasonable fear? Cops are arresting people for filming. You have no constitutional rights within 100 miles of the US border. The Government will come in and prevent you from building your house on your land if they find a rare mouse on it. People in prison for growing plants. Government is getting bigger and people are getting more dependent. This is fact. This is not good.

Never knew that. Interesting.

Still feel exactly the same way about it even if the original quote came from someone crazy like Ron Paul.

My point was that both the conservatives and the liberals are the enemy of the people. As long as they have the two groups fighting each other they can rape the people of their wealth and their freedoms with nothing to stop them.
