Question 1: Do you hold at least a BS degree in one or more of climatology, meteorology, physics or chemistry?
If not: shut up. You are not worthy to speak.
No.
Question 2: Have you read at least one textbook on climatology?
If not: shut up. You are not worthy to speak.
No.
Question 3: Have you read the latest IPCC scientific assessment?
If not: shut up. You are not worthy to speak.
No.
Question 4: Have you read the latest IPCC report on managing the risks of extreme events and disasters?
If not: shut up. You are not worthy to speak.
No.
At that point, maybe, you will be worthy of the privilege of expressing an opinion.
Free speech is a privilege now, is it?
...you are not worth to speak. You haven't earned that right.
Rights aren't "earned." They're considered inherent. You can agree or disagree with opinions, you can listen to them or not, but you can't silence them by virtue of them coming from someone who didn't waste a hundred grand on a college degree.
No one owns the movie beyond copies.....that's the only form of "property" in play. Beyond that, it's just the expression of an idea that someone holds (not "owns") the copyright on. That isn't property.
I don't care if there are 10,000 more terrorist attacks; our rights are not negotiable. Only a coward would sell out his principles for the sake of safety.
It definitely proves he has no valid concept of the Constitution. The rights enshrined in the Constitution are said to be recognized as inalienable...it's the American view that all people all over the world have those rights, not just Americans or people on American soil.
Oh, brother. I guess you run up to anyone who says X-Files, stomp your feet, and say "It's THE X-Files, you black-oil infested member of the Consortium!"
Re: Snowden is a traitor and his supporters are misguided.
Funny how any article on Techdirt that mentions Snowden inevitably attracts one or two two posters badmouthing him, generally with brand new accounts.
Please let your coworkers know that in the future, they don't have to register accounts to post here, especially if they're only going to post once.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: The difference...
Had I said "Anyone who tries to shut out any form of debate with self-righteous ad-hominem is a moron," then yes, hopefully I would see the irony.
But since I didn't say that, no, I don't really see any irony in what I said at all.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: The difference...
Anyone who tries to shut out any form of debate with self-righteous ad-hominem has nothing worthwhile to say.

You know, no matter how many times I read that, I'm not reading a *conditional* threat. That's an *imminent* threat.
