    Because most of our country has internet stuck with cable tv monopolies? I cant get better than DSL because Verizon wont offer fios without the TV bundle in my township. (even after I tell them I dont want to pay for their tv service)

    Man Killed For His PS4

    Un-possible. Its illegal to carry a firearm in California*. Its also illegal to rob, assault and murder. Obviously there were not enough signs stating this in the area. (*unless you have a title of nobility, such as "peace officer" or "government agent")

    "Excuse me, police department? I would like to have this trespasser removed from my store, and incinerated... er incarcerated if possible". You know, japan not only knows how to market, but they also know how to deal with greenpeace... the MS store needs a big water cannon.

    Paintballs Proposed as Defense Against Asteroid Attack

    I wonder, if they took the time to think about the effects of low temperatures on liquids... like say, paint. Perhaps sending up a cloud of titanium dioxide powder would have a similar effect. But a much, much simpler delivery system. Or screw it, nuke the damn thing.

    Company Seizes 3-D Printer From Desktop Gunsmith

    Wait, we all saw this coming, a guy wanted to make his own legal items, on legal machinery, and then was abducted and questioned, without being charged, by a regulatory agency, who lied about his legality? Yeah, I guess when dealing with the BATFE, you see that coming.

    Bill to Tax Violent Video Games Introduced

    I have no problem with a tax on a product, as long as it is put on all products, across the board, that are not necessities. And, you eliminate a wage or earnings tax by some amount, also across the board. Excise taxes are constitutional. Dont like it, dont buy that item.

    Salt mines is pretty close. they have, last i checked, 17 operating concentration or "reeducation" camps. Its hard to support a military that large, and feed your people, when they are trained from birth that the party (run by gods) will provide.
