So your justification for a ban is "too many people die". By what objective standard is the current number too many? How many would be acceptable? If "too many" is sufficient justification then why don't we ban some or all alcohol because of "too many" deaths.

In a free country we do not have to justfiy "need" we have to justify prohibition.

They are typically used in high schools where it is rare that any two students have all the same classes at all the same times.

My iPhone can be submerged for hours and still work, in fact it can work while submerged.That is because I put my iPhone in a case that it appropriate for my level of use and abuse.

The way I look at it Apple makes the insides and I put on the outsides that I need.

Why not a laptop? I bet they have laptops. Ask them why they don't carry them. My guess is size/weight, L-shape needing a table, cant be unplugged for more than a couple of hours and boot time.

>Historically, we can demonstrate the existence of Jesus, due to the historical events of Pontius Pillate and Ceaser and other shit happening around that time lining up, and something about some annoying beggar-preacher that they executed.

Historically, we can demonstrate the existence of Forest Gump, due to the historical events of John F Kennedy and Elvis Presley and other shit happening around that time lining up.

>>>There is currently NO LEGAL WAY for migrants from Mexico on south to come into the US.

>>That is just plain nonsense. It took less than five minutes of looking at the US State Deparment website to find more than one way for Mexican immigrants to legally enter the US.

Those ways are:

Be rich

Be educated

Be related to somone already here legally who can sponser you

The people crossing the border illegally do not qualify for any of these conditions.

If they did qualify they wouldn't be crossing illegally

Do we have 6,000 snipers sitting around doing nothing?

One sniper per mile. 2000 miles. Three shifts of eight hours each.

Much of the border is remote desert land where it would not be practicle to station soldiers

Expense of relocating entire cities to creat a DMZ.

>iPad is just a bigger iPhone, is it not?

No. It is not. if for no other reason, the ipad is not a phone.

Size makes for a very different experience.

bluetooth keybord perhaps

Apparently someone wants to run autocad and photoshop because they both have apps out for ipad.

Google can implament any software they like, and change it if it is wrong. If Samsung (or Apple) invest in the wrong hardware they can't fix it by sending out an update.

This is a hardware problem, not a software problem. The software end can be changed and updated after the sale. You can't change the hardware without a recall.

NFC is hardware. Google/Android is software. They may try to influence their handset manufactures to use one standard over another but they don't have the control that Apple could exert.

So buy a netbook.
