Don't be an idiot.

Surely, though, it's neither the money nor the corporation that are being "granted" First Amendment rights; it's the people donating that money who are exercising their First Amendment rights.

I mean, right? Otherwise the government could say "sure, you can criticize the government and office incumbents all you like,…

Not for a quality auditor to make. These are guidelines for people doing road tests, the person reviewing them needs to know whats wrong so they can work to fix it. Not someones turn of phrase.

No, it is not really. These reports are filled out by GM employes (notice the official "old" GM spelling) who are not lawyers or engineers. Their job is to fill out the report. "the ignition turned off when I hit a pothole." and that is it. They are not necessarily qualified to state anything else. It is the job…

To a point, that memo is correct. Just saying "This is a lawsuit waiting to happen" doesn't state the problem to be documented and passed along. This means nothing is really done about whatever the issue could be. HOWEVER, I think a more telling memo or powerpoint would be how they address someone spelling out in…

"accused of the assault"

"alleged"

This is the problem I have with this situation. So many people assume guilt until proven innocent. This student may or may not have committed this crime, but it will surly follow him around for a lifetime. If he is found guilty, then he deserves jail, however, if innocent....well, I…

You've neglected to mention the other reason the judge threw the book at him - he has a lengthy rap sheet and gang affiliations - the judge specifically mentioned this in his ruling. Shame you missed that part...

Not trying to defend the judge, but looking at all the facts in the instance of the black kid who was sentenced to prison, Boyd was pushing for rehab for him as well, but no facility would accept him because of the violent nature of his crime. It looks to me as more of a failure of an insufficient rehabilitation…

Um...holding up someone in traffic is much different than encroaching into someone's lane, brake checking them to the point of making contact, then stopping them in the middle of a 6-lane highway and surrounding them.

What about target shooting? I suppose the people are 'killing' the little pieces of paper? Marksmanship has been and remains a popular sport, I've shot guns very rarely but when I did, it was for the same purpose as other target sports like archery.

Why is this happening exactly? A train is on tracks. It's big and heavy. Its not agile or possess the ability to do anything quickly or unexpectedly. How can anyone with half a brain in their head and even the slightest amount of self preservation allow this to happen?

Sooo... A crowd of people walked across the train tracks when there was a train coming, and then they're angry at the train driver when it ends poorly?

I'm going with the 1909 steam-powered 20 HP Model O Touring.

Of course he's allowed to defend himself. Never in this whole frustrating, exhausting goddamned 2-day exchange of views have I ever said he was not allowed to defend himself. I did say, in many different ways, that he stupidly escalated the situation beyond his meager capabilities as a neighborhood watch high…

"Right because Zimmerman was just minding his own business."
There had been numerous break ins and thefts in Zimmerman's neighborhood and he was part of the neighborhood watch. He was doing exactly what we've all been told we should do: Reporting suspicious activity to the police.

You're ignoring the entire POINT of the case. The whole point of this - and what her attorneys argued - is that we should be moving towards class-based affirmative action, not race-based affirmative action.

The government has this info, and you're concerned about corporations getting it? What are they going to do? Target ads towards you?
