the problem being, most judges won't even allow it to be mentioned as an option. So the jurists have to know about it ahead of time and know their rights to use it without getting …

actually, all it takes is high fat butter in your regular coffee (while taking the sugar out). You don't have to buy anything from him. Also, excess protein turns into sugar, so if…

nice to see that you apply said guidelines evenly. but hey - go ahead and let everyone down-vote because they simply disagree - which is AGAINST the guidelines...

As a Yankee, the one troubling issue that I saw was that there was really NO electoral representative government within the EU parliaments (plural). It was a completely 'appointed'…

I was thinking this question is like: "Can we all go Republican?" "Can we all go Catholic?" "Can we all go .Net?" While the question can be asked, why would someone want to take ch…

BTFD

LOL, have you seen who the people are that are going on these rampages? seriously, have you looked at their political affiliations or are you just spouting your political views wit…

you mean like dealth-tolls into the hundreds of millions when the various gov't institutions implemented 'gun control'? You are confusing the last 50 years with the last 5000 years…

so you're saying "innocent until proven guilty"? What a concept. Be careful though. That's considered subversion in some circles, depending on the topic.

so asking a question is now a 'down-votable' offense on HN? WTF people? either don't answer or point them in the direction of some research. Don't down-vote, you arrogant fucks. Se…

the problem then would be that only the 'important' people would have guns. I don't see any politicians giving up their security details. I don't see Diane Feinstein or Chuck Schum…

I'll just leave this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTMxfAkxfQ0

...speaking of 'unhelpful' to the conversation, please explain what 'We' can do about it? Nothing. The fact is that CONgress actually legalized domestic propaganda (which is what t…

see my comment on being the "World Police". This country supports and props up dictators all the time. Why should we pay for a war (with dollars and blood) in another country when …

article NOT behind a paywall: http://boston.cbslocal.com/2016/06/15/home-depot-visa-master... TL;DR: chipped cards are not as secure as swiped cards. Also, CC processing is expensi…

This is EXACTLY what democracy is. THIS is how it works. Two wolves and a sheep trying to decide what's for dinner. you may be thinking about a 'Republic', in which the rights of t…

While I am no fan the POTUS' international policies, I am even less a fan of war or being the world police. These 51 'diplomats' are mid-level and all 'career' diplomats. Civil war…

My senators are douchebags. They (almost purposefully) split on nearly every important vote, thereby saving the 'state' from being on the 'losing' side... never mind having a unite…

that still makes no sense as far as 'intelligence' goes. First off, rural and urban birds have different overall diets. if you stick a french fry in front of a rural bird, it might…

Then you must address the fact that SCOTUS is now adjudicating law based not on the law itself or precedents or logical reasoning, but how the individual judges personally feel the…

no, but the Supreme Court has already put limits on it. What if they start defining 'hate speech' as they have in Europe?

history shows otherwise, even if 'philosophy' disagrees.

"One such test involved setting a dish of food and timing how long it took the finch to eat it;" How is this a test of "intelligence"? Biology, metabolism and food drive maybe, but…

confidence in congress only went down 10%? they must be polling the lobbyists or something...
