I felt like you ruled out collision when you said they're not going to murder, though, granted, an accidental but predictable collision after repeatedly refusing orders is not exactly murder. I think the point stands, they have to be w

Guards can plausibly arrest you without seriously injuring you. But according to https://aviation.stackexchange.com/a/68361 there are no safe options if the pilot really doesn’t want to comply, so there is no “forcing”

Democrats usually complain that ID requirements suppress voters’ rights. Your right to travel isn’t as thoroughly suppressed by this as the right to vote is. It’s not a strong excuse, but it’s not totally inconsistent either. And, at least

What do you think of https://electiontruthalliance.org/ ? I haven’t deeply read their stuff, and I’m not really qualified to evaluate their statistics, but it seems like there are concerns worth following.

Lol. The Maduro operation did leak, but the press held the story. Rubio said “Frankly, a number of media outlets had gotten leaks that this was coming and held it for that very reason, and we thank them for doing that, or lives could have b

Source? I cannot find anything suggesting that law enforcement agencies operate the portals. They are mandated by law and used by law enforcement, but operated by the telecom providers. From [0]: “Last year almost a dozen major U.S. ISPs we

It’s important everyone knows it’s not actually a bodycam though, as it affects the interpretation of e.g. what’s happening when it flips to the sky or gets obscured. Again, it’s also stupid and dangerous that he and his agency put him in t

Haha, it has the human developer traits of thinking all old code is garbage, failing to identify oneself as the dummy who wrote this particular code, and wanting to start from scratch.

People know the system well enough to write FOSS implementations of it; I think they would have noticed and sounded the alarm if there were a possible master key.

Perhaps that statement could be read to imply the existence of an objective moral status, but I don't think societal "consideration" does in general. Does this statement? "200 years ago slavery was considered moral; now

Having watched the videos now, he appears to shoot 2 rounds through the drivers window, after whatever amount of personal danger he was in while in front. That seems closer to mag dumping and poor discipline than not.

That’s fairness to a new employee. Does the multibillion company of a widely-deployed sensitive product deserve a pass for having poor or nonexistent employees doing security previously? Not really IMO.

I think there is a disconnect in meanings of trigger-happy. Yours seems to be what people familiar with guns mean, and the other was colloquial “too willing to use a gun.” So you disputed both meanings, but you’re not going to persuade the

I’m sure some people could tiptoe through minefields daily for years, until they fail. Nobody is perfect at real or metaphorical minefields, and hubris is probably the only reason to scoff at people suggesting alternatives.

Ok then, I look forward to my tax breaks and refunds enabled by cutting this program. I’m sure it’s in the mail with all the other dividends for citizens that Trump mentions every few months.
