Yet there are reasons why people riot, and it's not because they're criminals.

Currently, can't say anything that begins with those three letters. Can't even talk about assets and liabilities. I've got a heads-up into Josh on it.

I wasn't going to go there because the ridiculousness of the referenced statement in Post #5 kinda stands on its own, especially when you apply the statement, word for word, in all of it's sarcastic glory, to those who want to challenge and change the current abortion laws. #hypocrisy

There are several roads in New Jersey that have variable speed limits, highways with heavier traffic, where the speed limit changes automatically to match that of 85% of the traffic on that road. If the posted limit is 55 MPH, but 85% o the traffic is moving at 65 MPH, the posted limit changes...

Particularly since we know that most speed limits are arbitrary, anyway, and have nothing to do with safety.

Here's a good read: vBulletin review - how Internet Brands have killed off vBulletin "The conclusion - vBulletin is already dead"

Broken may depend on perspective. Over the years with every vBulletin update it has become more and more of a resource hog for the server (particularly after vBulletin was bought out and most of the original developers left). While it certainly supports large user traffic, it's doing so at a...

Expressing displeasure with the changes is one thing, but suggesting that whoever is responsible for those changes be taken out back and assaulted is a little inappropriate.

I'm not a big fan of an update that changes the user interface. It's a major pet peeve of mine, actually. Smartphone apps do that crap all the time, where the "What's New" lists "enhancements and bug fixes" and it turns out to be a complete change of the UI, where the places you used to go to do...

Uhm, what features, specifically, have you found removed? And what bugs, specifically, have you discovered in the new features?

It's not a straw man, it's your own context, an individual, who _couldn't_ get in trouble if stopped by the police because he doesn't do anything illegal.

Got it. The police never invent charges. Like the police in Ferguson who stopped citizens and trumped up charges to rake in revenue for city coffers. The citizens weren't doing anything illegal, tho.

Yeah, I know. Thanks for pointing out the obvious, though. :)

Well, the Pro-Life movement is a social and political movement founded on opposing elective abortion, and supports the legal prohibition of elective abortion. If you are a Pro-Lifer who believes in legislation to outlaw abortion, then you are supporting the attempt to tell others what to do, or...

I assure you I'm not.

I keep focusing on it because my phrasing is the key to my point. You changed the phrasing, and thus the context, to show that my statement is "not true." My statement wasn't even a statement. It was part of a question and was a posit, put forth as the basis for discussion. Dave said, "A known...

Yes, I'm aware of all that. My point was, if this guy was as evil as some are trying to make him out to be, he would have been convicted of anything and everything they could throw at him. Instead, they chose not to make an example out of a small-time drug dealer because he was so small time it...

It's not really as much of a "kind of thinking" as it is an observation of historical events and effects of those events. And yet in almost every case, it's societies that are the most desperate to survive that resort to rioting because they have no other options left to obtain the justice they...
