This has all been debated ad nauseam since before the country was officially founded. And since there isn't a single (significant) political entity that is operating within the spirit of the US Constitution, and since nobody can seem to figure out a solution to this problem (well, our forefathers did... it was called The American Revolution), our now laughable "inalienable rights" will continue to erode. Judges and attorneys and law enforcement and politicians all collude to subvert and distort laws for their own selfish desires and egotistical aims. All within the guise of "protecting the rights of ."

...will you Linux phanbois continue to argue over which desktop is superior? I've used several flavors of 'nix since before there was a desktop manager. And like almost EVERYTHING ELSE in the whole wide world (the original WWW), what works for one might not work for someone else. This is obvious if you'll pay attention to the fact that it's only since 2012 that Debian moved away from GNOME. Yet here they are, back again. I realize that it's been almost three whole years and that's like half of some of your lifetimes. But gimme a break. Besides it's not like you couldn't use GNOME with Debian if you desire. And if you're that much of a purist why the hell are you using a GUI anyway? Dig up that green screen (actually I prefer amber) and get crackin'! Why not nut up and be strong enough to accept the idea that there are several varieties of desktop manager for a reason; different strokes for different folks.
