The point, Ando, is that the right to set up checkpoints to control population movement sets a terrible precedent in a free society. And yes, I goddamned well would rather have a somewhat higher risk of death than live in a society with more social controls. I like being left alone by the government...

Firefly has a host of problems but I think you can still spin it to produce something acceptable for your daughters to enjoy watching. And that's better than a lot of the downright toxic television out there. It just still has flaws you can drive a mac truck through.

It isn't just the crime rate. I live in a very low crime area, but also a broke township that has potentially a ten minute response time to a nighttime breakin...at best. (two cops on duty at night, they have to call for backup from Charlestown).

Considering her personal history, I can't fault her for it. Coincidently, I visited a friend yesterday who got his dog to keep the crackheads out of his appt. he lives in Ottawa. Thats interesting, does it just slide between the box spring and matress? Yeah, the holding plate is big enough that it ...

(no, that isn't a picture from my house. It's just to prove they really exist).

I keep a loaded and ready unlocked gun in my house albeit without the chamber under the hammer or the next one loaded. It's also the lightest of my handguns in terms of firepower to minimize overpenetration. I'll have to invest in one with biometrics when I adopt, though. Also intentionally the heav...

Doesn't Bats usually only go after those lower on the social ladder than he? He goes after anyone he thinks he can win against. EDIT: Marina, I read your post and one thing I'd like to add is that ST ships have displayed some high acceleration as well, which may be suitable for consideration by you...

I hope someone does. I mean, I've only waited like 10 years since Attack of the Clones: ICS was published to point out the obvious fact that the Emperor has no clothes and that versus debating is boring if there isn't some kind of comparative ability between the two sides, so I kind of want to put t...

(I injured the sciatic nerve in my left leg. GOO GO GO PAINKILLERS).

Janeway let her bitches have fun without her? Who the hell do you think she is, a pushover?

It's just rational inference to conclude that they drink so much fine booze they pay for by making a hundred thousand people pull twenty hours of unpaid overtime a week that it's the only thing that comes out.

Pfft, Janeway/7 and Janeway/Torres were, like, MAJOR femslash pairings in the late 90's.

Flagg, if you haven't tried it, how the fuck do you know that neocons don't cum priceless single malt scotch?

That's how Janeway looks after a good session of pistol-whipping Chakotay's balls with a shotshell revolver while she's stripping to have kinky bondage sex with 7.

I would say it makes you a better one.

Dawkins is his own strawman. I have more respect for Christopher Hitchens, who died as he lived: A drunken, womanizing British raconteur.

Seems like a good way of being hassled by the cops. Also, I understand a lot of places in New Orleans won't let you take guns inside. It's freakin' Louisiana, dude, concealed carry is super easy there. Only restrictions that really matter (beyond government offices and schools) are bars/bar areas o...

Yeah, if you buy into all that. I don't know if there is a god or not, but if its as the bible describes then I want no part of that one. It doesn't consume me or anything like that, it just is. Pfft, what I buy into is that human life is a cosmic absurdity, and I'm no less or more absurd for what ...

.410 shotgun pistol.

Buying idolatry and burning incense to the great ladies corresponded with an incredible improvement in psychological health for me. Abandoning atheism for a devotion to an obscurantist sense of female divinity both served to comfort me in times of weakness and strengthen a sense of female empowermen...

As another tip for the future, plan out how many miles a day you plan to drive on a rental and the relative fuel efficiencies before going and getting a rental car... Sometimes a pickup from U-haul can be cheaper if you're only going to drive short distances.

I love how now that the word redneck has been invoked, adr addresses us as "y'all".

You have point-licenses now ? I thought the US was still using the old "all or nothing" system. Washington, and Rhode Island, don't have points systems, nor does Oregon, though a lot of states do. Some of our states (I believe only Michigan and Illinois at this point) will also seize lice...

I'm kind of a redneck I guess, but I'd pull the door off myself and shop junkyards for a replacement door. The door is kind of an easy thing to replace. The wheel assembly right front can also be replaced. The dash board doesn't need replacing, nor does the rocker molding. Cracks in the dashboard ca...
