Dell caught selling faulty PCs? News is that people are surprised.
Maybe Dell should shut the company down and give the money back to the shareholders (Dell: Apple should close up shop, Oct 6 1997)
Mod me down as flamebait, I don't care. After 13 years keeping that bottled up, it felt sooo good.
I am disgusted to be a Minnesota and United States resident. This is fucking shameful and horrifying. There is absolutely no excuse for this type of free speech violation. This is a stupid political rally, not a fucking war on our soil. Personally I'd love to join the protests but I seriously fear for my freedom and my life.
You sound like you have principles and conviction. Please do one or the other:
1. Overcome your fear and do something about the atrocious system under which you now live. I don't mean violence or joining a meaningless protest march, but something constructive and meaningful (there are still organizations left that do this work). This is the best option, since it *might* result in a better place for our kids to live in. But not everyone can find a way to make a difference or can take the risks needed.
2. If you can't do that - maybe you have loved ones that depend on you - consider moving to Canada. Really. Canadians welcome people that find overbearing police state action like this shameful and horrifying, and people that care about civil liberties. Its why they trust their authorities and their government much less than Americans do, and maybe why its not gotten to that point yet in Canada. You wouldn't be the first American to move on political grounds.
Sigmund Freud is alleged to have said that in the last analysis the entire field of psychology may reduce to biological electrochemistry.
