  safety of corrupt government officials of course.
  
  Safety of locking up dangerous political dissidents and any other undesirables.
  
  First you set up a system to track everyone then you start making the things you do not like illegal, so much easier to justify kicking in people's homes and carrying off people in the night if you know where they are.

  Most universities these days seem to be focused on the business of making money off their students instead of teaching them anything.
  
  Some of them I think the students have more learning than the so called teachers.

  Re: I don't get it:

  It feels like a shakedown to me. They know they can pointlessly sue and make a profit off of it regardless if they have any basis or not.
  
  I would be interested if any of the members of the tribunal profited from this choice or not. be it bribes or other means

  Re: Hmm....

  Americans want to feel safe and are willing to trust their corrupt government to do that for them.
  
  Much like the Germans in the 1930's

  Exactly what Americans need
  
  Another president that is a narcissist who believes the laws don't apply to them and plays the victim card every time they are caught breaking the laws.
  
  Its a shame she is white otherwise instead of just playing the "I am only criticized because I am a woman" she could also play the minority victim card "I am only criticized because I am insert colour here" as well.

  This is why I see body cameras for the police as mostly useless.
  
  The courts and police already ignore evidence that contradicts what their corrupt employees say they did. Why would having mandatory video evidence change anything when they will just ignore it or delete it.
  
  This dirty cop needs a bullet in the head

  shame how a horribly corrupt court system means most of their illegal acts will be paid off in bribes to judges and state officials instead of actual sentencing for breaking the laws constantly.
  
  By that I refer to the companies not the people targeted by them.
  
  Oh your rich? well that's a free pass on committing most crimes here in the states, just remember to pay us off and we will look the other way.

  Maybe if they keep using the "terrorism" buzz word people will let them have their way yet again. Worked for millions of people desperate for safety and security despite getting less of it after they trusted their government officals

  Dissent is terrorism, Normally when I say this people laugh at me. But then something like this comes along and exposes the fallacy of if you do nothing wrong you have nothing to fear.
  
  If you want to live in one of these so called free countries then you best ignore what your corrupt leaders do or else end up targeted in retaliation

  Re: Re: I have to laugh

  You must be suffering from the serious condition known as affluenza
  
  the description of such as recognized by the court system I kid you not. indicating that behavioural problems were influenced by a troubled upbringing in a wealthy family where privilege prevents a person from grasping the consequences of his actions.
  
  
  This is an actual thing as depressing as that sounds.
  
  
  some idiot teenager killed 4 people in a drunk driving accident and the judge let him off because he is rich, and suffers from affluenza.

  One would think that all these various countries cozying up to the USA would notice that allies of the states tend to be screwed over horribly when they stop being useful.
  
  Just look at Saddam and Iraq as the most glaring example I can think of.

  How is it legal for a group outside of the USA able to force a US company to change their name simply because they don't like it.
  
  What's next the white house will have to be renamed because some major foreign corporation has that trademarked?

  It is a serious mental illness that people feel a need to hoard money. To the point where they have more money than they know what to do with, but they have a sick desire to always hoard more and more by any means they can.
