  We have never been hacked...

  and just as soon as I'm elected, my people will show you the proof that we weren't hacked....unless I'm not elected and then we were definitely hacked and I'll get to the bottom of that too!

  Just arguing it wrong

  the government simply needs to point out that they aren't tracking the vehicle. They are tracking the GPS device, which is government property and therefore entirely theirs to actually track. It isn't their fault the careless vehicle operator failed to inspect/remove the device once it was secretly attached to the automobile!

  Claiming that Net Neutrality equals government control over the internet is akin to claiming anti-discrimination laws equal government control over racism.

  That's the type of thought process (or lack thereof)....

  that also recommends "warning shots".

  Example of why people "pirate"

  I went onto a large, popular e-book website last month and looked up a book I wanted to purchase (still popular, still in print). I got an "out of stock" response for a freaking E-BOOK!
  
  Its bad enough that you want to charge me as much OR MORE money than for a print copy, but then you tell me you are fresh out of 1s and 0s for that particular item?
  
  And THAT is what contributes to a "pirate" culture.

  Bigotry and lack of simple, human compassion is Causation in this instance.

  It's called "Qualified" immunity for a reason

  I'm just surprised to finally see an example of something that seems to NOT qualify!

  Kim Jong-Un would be jealous

  They could see who can tell the bigger lie...although I think JKU's claim that Japan stole time from the Koreans in 1919 and ordering all clocks be set back 30 min on Aug 15, 2015 would probably win.

  Re: Pitt

  I'm guessing this question sums up their concern....some idiot (not the commenter) would get wasted on beer, injure someone and the school would be sued because...the school "allowed" their name to be associated and also because...reasons.
  
  Doesn't make a lick of sense, but welcome to our civil court system.

  Would it make a difference....

  if the supposed offending language was part of the classroom environment as opposed to an administrative (disciplinary) meeting between some of the staff? Just a thought.
