Probably because they have remade Spiderman so many times the true fans are completely numb.

Um. Yes, Karate Kid (assuming you mean the 2010 version) was universally hated, even before released, by all of the 20 or so people that were actually paying attention. Nobody paid any attention to the 2014 Robocop and frankly the original was nowhere near as popular as the original GB, like only 1/4 the audience. I…

Meh. Ghostbusters 2 wasn’t terrible. Not as good as 1, but not terrible. It is way too late to do a 3. To make another GB now it almost has to be a reboot.

Please. It is very likely that very few competent, intelligent women are willing to work on his campaign and therefore the top staffers are male by default.

The projections for JSF are even lower and there is rationale behind them. It actually costs more to fly an F-35 today that it will once they (or if they, I suppose) ever get the automated logistics system worked out. And it isn’t just flight test today, the majority of the aircraft in the hands of the military are…

Hypothetical flight hours? That statement can’t be valid without real hardware flying in the air

You’re forgetting survuvability, firepower and cost of operation

I think you overestimate the condition of the paint job on a lot of well used trucks. I’ve got scratches all up and down both sides from branches and twigs sticking into the trail. I’ve even got a few deep gouges from big trailside rocks and from dropping into deep ruts.

It is hard to tell, but maybe the incline of the hill along with the distance to the curve would have been too close to have room to actually pull the vehicle onto solid ground. A top view would be helpful, but I guess nobody had a drone handy.

I think this is an excellent idea. It does offer up an opportunity for an enterprising individual to buy enough parts to recreate some vehicles and sell them back east at a tidy profit. Don’t even need to bother with washing the titles, nobody is going to try to register or insure them.

You have to break the cycle

I had thought that there was something in the laws that excused petty offenses such as minor shoplifting from being a trigger for permanent residents. Maybe I’m confused or misinterpreting.

The one thing I’ll add is that I’ve actually heard arguments stating “undocumented” is “demeaning” because it implies someone isn’t a real person unless they have documents saying so, or that it implies a fascist state where they get asked for their papers.

I don’t disagree with most of what you say, except that I see all kinds of vitriol against bankers and mortgage brokers, but that just may be my environment.

“non-citizens” is unspecific and includes those with valid visas and those with permanent residency. I don’t care what you call it but the meaning should be clear. If the context doesn’t require specificity, then fine, for example if you are talking about voting. If you are talking about detaining and deporting…

That’s interesting. But the Wikipedia article didn’t show a citation for that one in particular, only listing it in the weapons list and nowhere else. Whereas the ASRAAM is listed in multiple places, with multiple citations, but not the weapons list. I did a quick search and found several references to why IRIS-T…

Are they actually getting IRIS-T? I believe that the F-35 will get ASRAAM, but I hadn’t heard about IRIS.

That’s not the issue. The problem is that what the manufacturers claim the planes can do isn’t necessarily indicative of actual performance.

Please. Much better than either of those. Sealed chamber. Change out the air with nitrogen. The person will fall asleep and never wake up. The only downside is that you have to wait a while to make sure they are dead-dead.

I have no idea what you’re talking about. All the religious types around here are against both abortion and execution. But then this isn’t the deep south or anything like that.
