    Leaked AMD Trinity APU Slides?

    Big Government Wants a Black Box in YOUR Car

    "If you drive a car, I'll tax the street, If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat. If you get too cold I'll tax the heat, If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet."

    Student Expelled For Swearing On The Internet

    ...and read the Constitution. Who provides for the Government? The people. Laws apply even for the protection of the willfully ignorant, lucky for you.

    Student Expelled For Swearing On The Internet

    I love to check out these threads when it comes to "rights." The posts are especially hilarious when someone takes a stand that shows they're absolutely ignorant of the rights they demand. 1. Have you actually READ the amendments to the Constitution? Quick...without looking on Google or any...

    Why Won’t Wireless Companies Help Stop Cell Phone Thefts?

    12 Year Old Sues School For Facebook Privacy Invasion

    So, you despise them, but you don't hate them...interesting. LOL! My ex used to be the head of a local ACLU, and, let me tell you, the ACLU is FAR more involved than just providing for people's defense. They also check the constituionality of laws, codes, and decisions (many of which are...
