  Shon Gale ( profile ), 03 Aug, 2013 @ 05:07am

  I used to buy EA all the time I personally own all of the Command and Conquer's plus Roller Coaster Tycoon. But I will never buy another game from EA. I will just keep playing the ones I own with no restrictions on them. So bite me EA, I will never be a customer again, ever!

  Well NOW we know where Christie stands on privacy and the intrusion of government into our daily lives. He won't be my president!

  Greedy! Greedy! And I never received a dime. Lot's of artists I know get their songs played on terrestrial radio and never receive a penny from ASCAP or BMI. They are ripoffs as far a I am concerned. They steal from the artists. Let's start an online service that streams music from only artists who have no ASCAP affiliations.

  Welcome to America where Judges make up interpretations of the law. Remember the law means nothing, it's how the Judge interprets it. Justice in one state is a failure in another. How long are we going to keep putting up with this shit!

  So what? The same idiot voters will vote all the same idiot politicians back in office. Nothing changes. We still get ripped off for our 401K's, we still get stock market crashes every 10 years. We still get mass unemployment because we don't make our primary goods. So what we're angry? I don't trust us to do a thing about it.

  They can stay away from my parties too. The federal government is not welcome in my neighborhood. Send the assholes back to Chicago or Iowa or wherever BOehNERs come from.

  How soon Judges forget that when there is a revolution the first to go are the Judges because of their harsh sentences. Freedom to all. One world, One People, One Law. One government.

  Awwwww. The poor boy. Can't even handle a grandma. His mama needed to teach him more respect. If I was a woman I would have done the same thing. Lucky for him he didn't go after an old man with a cane, he would be in the hospital.

• On the post: Eric Holder Wants To Stop And Frisk The NYPD

  

  Shon Gale ( profile ), 16 Jun, 2013 @ 08:27am

  Just another case to prove how afraid the the government is of it's own people. I would never go to New York now. Why would I ever put myself in a position to be humiliated by some ahole stopping and frisking me. Unbelievable. If that happened in my city I would move and never come back. Land of the free huh!

• On the post: Is The Bigger Concern NSA Getting Phone Records, PRISM Or Just Everything?

  

  Shon Gale ( profile ), 11 Jun, 2013 @ 07:28am

  It's always about money. The more Congress and the White House think they need your department, the more money that department is granted and then the executives can get higher salaries and more perks. It's always about the money. Nothing else matters to the greed of these men. Fear always loosens up the dollars.
  As we go deeper and deeper into debt and mass unemployment, we now waste money spying on our own people. Of course, in my 66 years on this planet, I have never known a government that trusted me. All the way back to J. Edgar, they have always seemed to be afraid of the citizen.
  They better be!

• On the post: NSA Whistleblower Ed Snowden: From My Desk I Could Wiretap Anyone: You, A Federal Judge Or The President Of The US

  

  Shon Gale ( profile ), 10 Jun, 2013 @ 07:59am

  I am a child of the sixties and received my manhood helping execute one of the greatest crimes ever done to humanity, The Vietnam War. And I protested against it.
  As a result I expect to have my phone tapped, to be followed even to the grocery store and if I was protesting now I would treat email, tweets, fecebook or any other service including my cable TV to be used to spy on me, just like my phone. Only use prearranged code or just shut the hell up.
  Now maybe you "Joe Citizen" the common man in America will finally start to believe that we have become a communist country.
  Next comes censorship! All In the name of stopping Terrorists, Drugs, Guns and Child Porn. The holy rollers attack!
  This is the government you voted for. Trillions of dollars in debt just to spy on their own people. Will you vote for this crap again?

  Shon Gale ( profile ), 10 Jun, 2013 @ 07:39am

  Like I always said they need 2 elections for every Senator and Congressperson, 1 for the state they are from and 1 to see if they are even compatible to the rest of the country. I guarantee you under that system there would be No BOehNER, No Cantor and definitely No Graham.
  Remember that the child porn excuse is what they use in China to stop internet freedom. I haven't seen any child porn. Is there anyone you know worried about child porn, is it in your every day conversation? None of the people I have ever met would do something so disgusting and if I ever found one in my neighborhood I would terminate it, and I would never serve a day in jail. I don't need the government to monitor my email to do that.

• On the post: FL Schools Go Minority Report On Students, Give Parents Opt Out Choice Afterward

  

  Shon Gale ( profile ), 03 Jun, 2013 @ 06:14am

  Since Students don't have the same rights as adults. What's the big deal? The school already control's what they do all day, and the parents are happy to let them babysit.
  Not one student was allowed to say NO on their own. The sad thing is most of the students were led to the scanner like sheep and they put up with it. Never even questioned it. Sad.

  Who ever said you could TRUST POLICE! They lie for a living, right along with Lawyers and Politicians. Never trust any of them, they will lie to you.
