That's what you call a police state. In theory for what it's trying to do, it's pretty good. however, if the state has such power they can easily start using it for anything else, such as censorship, or any amount of minor crimes that are commited on a daily basis without doing any harm. And eventua...

There is no logical defense of morality outside of religion, only fuzzy sentiments. Ok, where do you think these original moralities came from? Do you really believe that god reached down a big hand and gave the 10 commandments to moses on a mountain? Don't you think it's more likely that moses jus...

No, you're missing the point. Despite the fact that you don't believe it's possible for criminals not to have guns, it is. It is already the case in england. (not that there are ZERO guns, but a statistically insignificant amount.

If people want to kill other people, they are going to find a way. In Northern Ireland for example, you used to hear about car bombings all the time. Why? Because it was made inconvenient to get a gun there. True, but this was undirected murder / terror. Ever try to stick someone up with a car bomb?

Simple solution: Make gun sales illegal. The gun owners will continue to have their guns, the criminals who get caught have their weapons confiscated, and eventually the guns in circulation among criminals wear out. At this point forbid guns alltogether. What's stopping this? The NRA who makes milli...

Just goes to show that if more people had had guns there, they could have shot him earlier and thus saved lives. Well-trained, responsible men ought to be armed.

Best way to schedule audio playback on a computer?

The efficiency of my alarm clock has lessened over the past months, and so I'm thinking of upgrading to something more powerful. I was thinking something along the lines of System of a Down at 95dB. What's the easiest way to make my computer start playing at a given time? I've got several mp3 progra...
