Yes, "free" condoms & food stamps are much more important. Birth control reduces future welfare claims, food stamps provide nutrition for children which allows them to do better in school and become productive members of society.

I think it might look something like this

I can see RoboRobots point.

And Star Wars is fantasy, so I can imagine the scientist of that universe long ago came up with a way to re-direct or dissipate kinetic energy using invisible shields made of energy.

I remember reading somewhere that most space going vessels have at least some particle shields to protect from micrometeorites and space debris. Would work against most shrapnel too I would think.

I always figured there were ALOT of Ewoks. What you never get to see is the piles of dead ewoks that were just off screen.

it's because when everyday people use the word "theory" it just means your best guess.

Yes, because people who have dedicated their lives to climate studies totally missed that point. All 90% of them. Good catch, you should become a climate scientist.

I would suggest you talk to some truck drivers before you dismiss "simple cargo hauling" as a simple job. Sure it requires a different skill set from programing, but controlling 20+ ton vehicle in all types of road conditions is not exactly simple. Especially when you add in HAZMAT cargoes and the schedule your boss…

Believe me, as a former teenaged boy, if there was any sort of massive worldwide organization dedicated to "sexualizing young girls" I would have known about it.

because they kill people.

just need the proper lab equipement

cauterized or not, there would still be blood. Cut arteries still bleed unless they are clamped before being cauterized. There would be even more blood if it was a traditional blade.

The mere existence of social welfare programs is not the reason for people like this existing. It's people like you who vote in conservative dinosaurs that ensure that those social welfare programs only give the barest necessity to live, but not enough to lift a person out of their circumstances.

Actually, this has been researched before and it appears that "Rom-coms 'spoil your love life' "

Get rid of the nanny state and you get more crime. Your gun will only protect you for so long since they may get lucky and take you out first and even if they don't it's only a matter of time since they will outnumber you. Even if you do manage to protect yourself, do you think everyone you care about will be as…

I smoke alot of pot, but I'm not dumb enough to pretend it has no effect on my hand eye coordination. Apparently my fellow sci-fi fan aren't all in agreement. And here I though sci-fi aficionados tended to be more intelligent than average.

A statistic? Like this guy right? Until things like this stop happening, I can't support SWAT raids in cases where there isn't imminent danger to actual human beings.

130s, Apaches whatever, my point was you don't call in overwhelming force without a good reason. The fact that he made "statements" is not a good enough reason when you consider his history is that he talks alot of shit but doesn't actually DO anything to back it up in the physical world.

That's not good logic. There are never any "guarantees" in police work. That's why they get good benefits and decent pay. At least they do here in the US.
