lol, k.

Maybe you should retake ECO111 at your community college.

@urbanturban666:

In the US?

No Federal ban... $200 tax on them though. Legal in most States. I'm pretty sure they're illegal in California, New York, and Illinois. Maybe other places, but they're legal here in Virginia, at least.

@Hiroak:

In your experience? Let me guess, you were a Green Beret, code named "Agent Orange" in Vietnam, right?

Suppressors aren't silent.

They're expensive, and generally speaking a waste of money. There's a reason they are used much more by law enforcement than the military: because their biggest use is to allow a team to fire in an enclosed space without requiring hearing protection, while being able to actually hear commands.

The only thing that'll be relatively silent is a .22 with subsonic ammunition, and generally you lose so much force with subsonic ammo that the action has issues and jams regularly.

@Hello Mister Walrus:

Stray cats tend to eat garbage, kill mice, and generally, when hit by cars, don't obliterate your vehicle and kill the driver.

Homeless people are people. And generally, hunting people would be considered murder.

Venison is good meat, and you can feed a family of four for weeks on one good sized Deer, as a result of one day of "work", or, in most people's cases, a day of fun.

@blash:

Being anti-war in general is naive, being anti-war, in the sense of being against whatever war is going on at the time, isn't necessarily.

Assuming the Robot Apocalypse does come and the world is ruled by Robots, I think it's safe to say that they will be nuclear powered.

Our initial ones might very well be powered by solar power plants or what have you, but when the Robots get smart and kill us all, I think they'll make the switch to Nuclear energy. Being Robots and all, and most likely all controlled by some gigantic overbearing Hive AI, they won't need to worry about the inherent problem with nuclear engines, which is personal responsibility.

Also, they could use oil and coal if they wanted, I don't think robots would care about global warming.

@Ben Zvan:

It's not free-- I pay Sales tax like everyone else, which is more than enough money to cover State and local infrastructure.

I won't pay Federal Income Tax, which fund absolutely nothing I support, from the bailout to the wars to the Dept. of Education, the FBI, the DEA, and the ATF.

@TheSonOfKrypton:

The legality of Piracy is going to come down to whether you accept the legitimacy of intellectual property. As a pure capitalist, and someone who doesn't accept to the concept of intellectual property, I don't consider Piracy theft, period.

Given, I also haven't ever paid my income taxes, either.

@Kenny:

Just thought I might throw in some reference material here, for the unaware:

"When Keeping it Real Goes Wrong" features sketches that demonstrate how "Keeping It Real" can lead to people behaving badly and having their lives ruined as a result. The first time the skit appeared on Chappelle's Show, the story revolved around a man named Darius who tried to fight another man at a club who made a mild comment to his girlfriend Tanisha. Instead of just walking away, Darius decided to "keep it real", resulting in a sound attack on Darius by the man who made the comment (who happened to be a champion of martial arts), as well as Tanisha, who was fed up with hearing how Darius "kept it real." the man who made the comment and Tanisha have sex 3 times the following night, while Darius ended up having to move in with his grandmother as a result of his huge hospital bills, where he is caught masturbating and has to get condoms for his grandmother.
Episode 8: A later skit involved a woman named Brenda, "keeping it real" after a random wrong number hung up the phone on her. Brenda believed this rudeness to be the sign of her boyfriend cheating on her. With her Star 69 ability, Brenda found her house and vandalized her car, which backfired for her when the woman's car was really the property of the federal government, whom the woman's older brother worked for. She was sentenced to six years in prison and was soundly beaten by three inmates who "kept it realer." It also turned out that her boyfriend was indeed cheating on her, with the 'friend' she was eating popcorn with when the wrong number called.
Another skit featured Vernon, a successful young, black company director in a boardroom meeting. All the characters are commending each other on their performance when one leans over the table and says "you da man, gimme some skin!". He decides to "keep it real" and angrily responds, ranting about this remark, cursing and shouting: "THUG LIFE! bark! bark! Wu-Tang!". The next scene he is out in the snow cleaning car windscreens at a local gas station yelling at someone for not giving him a large enough tip."
