10.31.07
is USA going to withdraw from article 3 of the geneva convention and allow torturing of suspects
is that a yes?thus….#10 takes precedence
i just think it would get a lot more complicated than that
the answer would be “no”.
like if a parent took a child across state lines for one
whats the difference between a trademark and a copyright
Baboon the insurance can be skated by on Cali state offered crap, and the tax payers soak it up.
of course…why you may have to off some lawyers
then the originating state might take the child away for child abuse even though it didnt happen in their state
can we start with John Edwards? =]
they could claim that they were abusive parents in general
if it were up to the states…
vlad, no.
there is no ban against torture of non POWs, non Civilians in article 3
define torture is red hot chili peppers torture?
Every State East of the Mississippi and south of KS would illegalize it
pulling fingernails, starvation, extreme scare tactics
yea, they always truncate “torture, cruel and inhuman, offensive, not giving them a five course meal..”
the music or making them eat them? haha
KS SD would also
what [vlad] doesn’t seem to grasp is that the geneva conventions do not apply, and that SCOTUS was wrong in their ruling.
MA would prob make it leagl….
a candlelit one-on-one with Rosie O’Donnel… *shudder*
California would be a battleground
TORTURE!
california would probably make it illegal
yes/no. The geneva convention most definately applies. They just do not qualify for all the protections in it, which are limited to lawful POW’s.
Hook…do her with the Candle…
because their illegal citizens are all catholic
i’m not joking about the red hot chili peppers either…
and they have to make their illegal citizens happy hehe
now *that* would be cruel AND unusual I like it!
think of it this way: suppose you are charged with theft.. do the laws pertaining to murder apply? no. it is not relevent ot the case at hand.
anything that is intended as cruel punishment to make someone uncomfortable to the point of losing control is torture
oh noez… ishi the killer!
fonebone..its like taxes…
oh wait… that’s ichi n/m
no… Rosie O’Doughnut sides with them…
ichi
People will vote with their feet
heh.. weird movie
Expect NJ to lose a significant # of people
but would it be good for more state migration?
Lupine don;t the offenders in question have to be wearing a uniform to meet geneva conventions?
I just watched another Miike movie called “Zebraman”
hello
Very humorous
hi ishi we are glad to see you give us a hug
i mean.. states like kansas and oklahoma would become even more radical in their religious zeolotry
Zebraman…lol
fone — that would take a bit of doing
not really
KS already shitcanned Evolution theory
there are still plenty of laws in the books in the bible belt that just arent used
yes/no. They need it to qualify for certain protections..
all KINDS of sex laws
if I had kids in KS..I would home school
Watermelon Man
that the religiousos would enforce if they could get away with it
Bill…good flick
for example, POW’s do not have any of the protections for non-combattant civilians. And vice versa
Lupine thats what I thought. certainly the GC has provisions for non uniformed personel
CryHavoc, the evolution stuff in KS is way overblown
fonebone…no State const laws can contravene a Fed Const law….a delimiter
yup it is
hah….
right.. so to say “geneva convention applies” doesn’t say one thing about which sections apply
too a point.. but its all opinion
Lupine willful ignorance.
3J’s it still was made public…
does right to privacy include having sex with the lights on? tahts a law in oklahoma by the way its illegal to have sex with the lights on haha
if USA tortures people isn’t it throwing away the moral high ground?
that one may actually have been repealed by now
Creationism and ID are non-scientific Bullshit..and belong in a philosophy class
CryHavoc, what the media reports and what reality is, often differ
yea.. far better to have 5 million NYC citizens vaporized in a nuke to save the moral high ground
depends on what you call torture, whats a few missing fingers
[vlad]: fuck the moral high ground… we want to win the war
KS is like OK in many ways…they possess a cheerful intolerance of some things
CryHavoc, KS has never said you can’t teach evolution or that you must teach creationism or ID
torture janet 
vlad, which would you prefer? torture a terrorist, or let 1,000 people die because you wanted to ‘take the high ground?’
nawww
that debilitating
you can lose a finger slicing roast
bill kill the terrorist cause he’s an asshole?
the same argument goes for domestic crime
you can.. you can get your head cut off driving a car
so why not introduce torture there too
The Dominicans and Franciscans would do more then that
vlad well like lebed said kill enough criminals crime is no longer a problem
hello Fine lookin Woman!
[vlad] or the third option, make sure the US can not torture, so when a terror attack does occur, you can bash Bush with that as well.
so i guess the terrorists arent really being cruel when they cut peoples heads off by that reasoning janet
torture someone to find out who stole a candy bar? you’re being extremist
[vlad]: some torture techniques are insituted in regular old law enforcement and interrogation
didn’t condi demote the guy who warned her 911 was coming?
Lloyd’s of London often accepts unique coverages. (e.g., the insuring of Tina Turner’s legs and Jennifer Lopez’s buttocks)
well they cut the heads off innocents we are talking about terrorists
so do cars
[vlad] I have no idea, can you stay on topic?
we can’t ignore our responsibility to follow the Geneva Conventions we have agreed to
Baboon….Lopez’ hiney would need a lot of insurance
having to listen to the likes of ted kennedy is torture to me
Cry wuss lol
but those are specifically enumerated, which leaves us lattitude
heh
[vlad] besides which, the memo in question said nothing about 9/11.
“What happened to little Billy?”
Hook — with those nations who SIGNED it — ahhh these terrorists have no nation - never signed it
i wonder what she pays for her ass?
Publius wants some Lopez hiney
Baboon pro rated per fart
*yawn*
if they aren’t a signatory to the Geneva Conventions, they aren’t protected by it
actually….Lopez is watched for that very ASS-et
but why would she insure it?
but o well
I’m not absolutely certain, because it’s been a long while since I studied about it… but I’m pretty sure the content on prohibited wartime action is not restricted to only those countries who signed along with us
luckily, every day that passes, we need hollywood less.
Julia Roberts is watched for her Smile
is she expecting it to get shot, thereby making it smaller by a removing a chunk??
Hook - well look it up…
Meaning we are bound to follow the Conventions regardless of whether or not our adversary has signed the documents, or they adhere to the same codes of conduct.
Baboon…maybe P Diddy might ram it too often… she could lose muscle tone
dude, that was like 5 years ago
so?
shes married to mark anthony
Hook - only with those who signed it…
its insured because it is to her a valuable asset
all I remember is the Police Woman, back in the Day, Angela Dickinson, had her legs insured with loyds of london at a million apiece.
Angie Dickinson was a looker in those days
angie used her legs to make money and they were fine legs indeed.
who the hell is she?
CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida (AP) — NASA unfurled two solar wings on the new 17-1/2-ton addition to the international space station early Thursday after overcoming a software problem that delayed the maneuver for hours.
an old actress. who probably had more class in the heel of her shoe than JLo ever will.
hey NASA! Get a Mac!
bill lol
Hey NASA, go private!
GO NASA — power power!!
Kaliuna, a bit slow with that news - I watched that more than 12hrs ago
solar power?
3j — ya I watched it on tv - CNN is FINALLY putting up story
in space, solar power rules, no clouds or bird shit
Kaliuna, the solar arrays won’t be plugged in until the next mission - they are just for show now
If i were to start my own porno company i wonder how much liability insurance would be
aids
herpes
3J — well at least they ARE there… long overdue
hepatitis
yep, after sitting in a warehouse for 5 years - they are finally delivering some pieces again
its all Clinton’s fault and his enviromentally safe Shuttle Foam.
join the wonderful world of stds !
Clinton’s continual budget cuts at NASA sure didn’t help things
i wonder if warren buffet will insure my porno corporation
see, Democrats do not understand the basic human desire to explore space. They think we should “Fix” all of our problems here first.
Darth so let’s send them to the sun
i understand the desire
can we?
but the mars project is unrealistic
“Although one of the Powers in conflict may not be a party to the present Convention, the Powers who are parties thereto shall remain bound by it in their mutual relations. They shall furthermore be bound by the Convention in relation to the said Power, if the latter accepts and applies the provisions thereof. “
in the EXTREME
fonebone same thing was said about the USA, back in the day.
the crazy part is we won’t have any ability to reach the space station from 2010 to at least 2014
so there is a provision.
they dont even know how they could get the astronauts to mars without exposing them to too much radiation im all for space exploration and droppin cash on it.. but not the mars project
Hook - there ya go IF THE LATTER — see al qaeda terrorists have not “accepted such”
(and we all know the next generation stuff won’t be ready on time for 2014)
The second-in-command at Russia’s central bank was shot dead last night in Moscow. Andrei Kozlov had been cracking down on money laundering. Stephen Beard reports.
and then there’s the Van Allen belt
I stand corrected =]
fonebone it makes more sense to go to the moon first, closer and all, and then have an excellent jump off point for Mars.
hook ya its a technical point ..
but thats like jumping up on a step ladder to jump to the top of the empire state building darth
it still doesnt solve the major problem
of keeping astronauts alive all the way to mars
fonebone, the Moon is doable, and we will learn.
the only way i see it happening is with a repeal of the space nuclear treaty thang then we could build ships fast enough…
no nukes in space?
Nonoxynol-9 is very abrasive to the skin and causes irritation, rashes and small fissures (cuts) in the rectum or mouth all of which increase likeliness of contamination to HIV upon exposure.
didn’t the aliens tell us to stay away from the moon?
haha no nukes in space
but considering the legal implications, it’s a very important point. It makes an assumed “illegal” action simply “immoral”
but
that’s a huge distinction IMO
the probes are nuclear powered, the old voyager ones
im just tellin ya why nasa hasnt pursued any new nuclear drive technology i think its more in the lines of explosions darth which is what would be the key
that’s the difference between legal action and legal posturing
We need to be ready when V’Ger returns
if the UN or any other party had firm legal grounds, they would have already gone after Bush
a nuclear explosion drive would hall balls
Nukes in space I like it its not like we can build them here
as it is, it’s just posturing because the legal technicalities of the matter don’t fit their grievances.
Darth yep
considereing the sun is one huge continuous nuke it would be nothing new hehe
that’d drive the libs nuts. let’s do it
it would be hard stowing enough oil on it ?
well, I thought nuclear power was fusion, and the sun ran on fission
hmm, ok - does this make any sense to ya’ll: “Eight of the past ten summers have been warmer than the U.S. average for the same period.”
its still a nuclear reaction
e=mc^2
Sun is a Fusion reactor
producing massive radiation
but Fusion is a near clean burn
yeah, and yet the record highs even in TX are mostly from the early 80’s heh
once we had it…the ELFies would be having orgasms
Men are more intelligent than women, claims new study — http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=405056&in_page_id=1770
][Hook][, how can 8 to the past 10 summers be warmer than the average over those 10 years?
byll…thats crap
e=mc^2 means that the energy required to move an object is equal to the product of mass times the square of the required speed
hala
I’m assuming they are comparing national averages to some regional one
][Hook][, nope, all national
Then that sentence makes no sense =]
(well, contiguous US, almost national)
according to http://www.gayvidstore.com/news/sodo0799.html all CA film producers need at least 1M of liab. ins.

The State of California requires anyone making a film to have liability insurance wroth at least $1 million. Such policies are pretty expensive, and little studios - much less porn studios - usually can’t afford them. For years, porn studios got away with shooting without insurance. But after the Falcon Studios porn set bust 18 months ago, the industry has been in a tizzy over what to do about liability insurance. Now, it seems that the F
Bill thus you quickly arrive at a threshold
“Republican Voters are generally more alfuent and educated than Democrat Voters.” Bill Lunch, Prof PoliSci, UofO
1 million in liability insurance?
stop filiming in california baboon?
is the premium less than 5% for a 2 year period?
Baboon Porn studios can cover the fee in other ways
porn is sad heh depressing
they can film ion Mexico
porno is sad… but so is the the state of women’s mind’s. They all want some rich guy or some movie star tv has fucked up women for us normal men

Deputy al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri has urged a militant Algerian Islamist group to punish “crusader nation” France, even though it vehemently opposed the US-led war in Iraq, a newspaper said on Thursday. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3304150,00.html
Rebec well I don’t hit on people on irc, but maybe if we meet in the fleshy realm, we’ll talk or something… lol
France should have stayed out of Algerian affairs
gojiri yeah I hold the same policy generally speaking…you’re probably not near me in the fleshy realm
not a good idea to hit on people here…
France was trying to compete with the UK
europe probably should have stayed out of africa
for imperial glory… they picked the wrong place

The death of a gay adult performer is always sad. Many fans have had life-changing experiences while watching gay porn films. (Personally, I learned a lot about what it was to be “gay” - at least in part - by watching gay porn while growing up in ultra-conservative Montana in the 1970s and 1980s.) Many fans want to know if their favorite long-lost performer has merged with the infinite. Well, “OUT!” magazine, a New Zealand publication, th hahaha

I want the USA to cut off all aid to Africa

DEJA VUE Eager to shed his image as an overly cautious politician, Kerry now prefers to “let it rip,” according to several of his closest advisers. will these fuckers never learn?
Africa needs our aid especially medical
Darth…Kerry Farts?
aids aid
Hook..nope…
I think the aid is helping
we send them aid..it goes for guns and machetes
africa has europe, saudi arabia, and their vast natural resources… they don’t need the USA
is it cost effective probably not, but it does some things
Cry we should quit sending aid to everyone
if we want to really help Africa…cut off all aid…
that’s why so many faith-based groups actually go there to administer aid… handing money over without question is not a good plan in Africa.
I assure you..there would be a sea change there…one way or another
Doctor’s without borders is a good organization.. I don’t know if they get taxpayer money
well hell… it’s not a good plan anywhere

The BBC was yesterday told by the government that it cannot expect a ”blank cheque” from licence-fee payers to fund the corporation.

With time running out and conservative activists fuming, the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday is expected to discuss at least four of the five federal appeals court candidates recently renominated by President Bush. Conservatives want those nominations to be sent to the full Senate without further delay. Most of the nominees have been waiting for two or three years for a “yes” or a “no” from the full Senate.

LOS ANGELES - Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Democratic rival Thursday defended his campaign’s decision to download a recording of a private meeting in which the governor chattered about “very hot” mixed-race personalities. Questioned by reporters about the audio tape, state Treasurer Phil Angelides maintained his campaign had done nothing wrong. The issue, he said, is the nature of the governor’s comments and attempts by Schwarzenegger aides to “cover up.”
its hard to be tough when you are naked!
what the hell kind of orwellian bullshit is an orginization called “Truthers” ?
he steals it, then claims the whining about his theft is an attempt to “Cover up” amazing
ir its easy, depending how you look at things
when Serbia attacked Croatia…I suggested fencing off all of Jugoslavia and let them settle things
donkeys have no shame.
rumbleca — oh I dunno — bit more difficult maybe…
once enough were dead..then they would have some peace
what is the “truthers” ? anyone?
Dems are what?? hmmmmmm
gojiri I don’t know
I don’t agree with that at all
Sensing both political danger and opportunity, a top Democratic operative and a group of major party donors have banded together to deliver a barrage of late advertising and on-the-ground action to secure Democratic victories in November. The operative, Harold M. Ickes, a top aide to former President Bill Clinton and informal adviser to Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, and a group of allies are soliciting money for a new organization called the September Fun trouble in paradise?
something like 30% of the people supported the war
He also urged the GSPC – the Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat – to sow fear “in the hearts of the traitors and the apostate sons of France” and to crush the “pillars of the Crusader alliance.

africa is different
let them do so…
I don’t know, I am skeptical of most voting in africa anyways
WITHOUT our tax money being flushed down the toilet so we cut off all aid….
lol newp
what about creating an environment where individuals who want to help themselves can? if you remove all aid that becomes very difficult
they will either get somke sense…or exterminate each other… Darwinian for sure…but win/win rumbleca…..even with our aid they are not creating that sort of environment
rumbleca the aid you speak of is what keeps them down, no aid, the drive to succeed is greater, FDR said it himself, when we give people welfare, we are robbing them of their humanity.
I’m not talking about welfare, there has to be consideration about what the money is used for
thanks Darth rumbleca…there isnt
rumbleca there has to be consideration for what the money does.
it goes for weapons…or into someones pocket
this is noticable absent.
I agree with that no, that’s only one kind of aid
or goes to mine diampnds for weapons ..or money into someones pocket
what about ngo’s or other forms of aid?
rumbleca explain to me, in detail, how hordes of welfare cases in New Orleans were “Helped” by “Aid” during Katrina.
cut off the aid…then Africa will finally have to make some choices
Man How can my neighbors party 3 nights in a row until late
heh Herz tank them
I’ll put a couple of APFSDS rounds through they wall that should shut them up
I think most of that aid went towards the brewery that makes Colt 45 40’s
how old are they
afew years younger then me so like 25-26
can you hear wild moans and orgasms through the wall at nite?
No
that sucks
Just shitty music and drunken yelling
are you opposed to the concept of welfare, or simply the fact that its your money that’s paying for it
rumbleca both.
Son…sounds about right gotta get the rabble their 40s
I listen to “shitty music”
rumbleca..I am opposed to both concepts
or at least that’s what people tell me
plant drugs in their apt and call the cops
ok I can’t have the welfare debate now, I don’t know what the answer is
I prefer the one called personal responsibility
Is Al Sharpton going to run for President in 08\
but I will say this, “westerners” are FAR too spoiled about their money
who knows — who cares?
Al Sharpton(gue)
spman-, he runs everytime, just like Jesse
rumbleca be aware I make a distinction between “Can’t work” (disabled) and “Won’t work” rank and file donkey voters on the dole for nothing more than their votes.
so I honestly will never sympathize with that argument
How bout Sharpton/Clinton as in George Clinton
I would vote for Shaprton
especially north americans (and americans more than canadians, but only just)
feh Sharpton gets elected…RAHOWA starts the day after he takes office
Just finished my Asia News RSS page
yes there is widespread abuse of the welfare system
Is Perot too old to make another serious run?

rumbleca another reason against it, reasons against far outweigh the reasons for it, frankly I am surprised we even have it.
Cryhavoc/Libertine 2008!!!!!
the point is that firstly people should survive, there is a lot of everything to go around
Bush Sr. should run in 08
Japan is talking of sending forces to Lebanon
if welfare enables destructive lifestyles that should be dealt with somehow
bobby brown for president and charlie sheen
but there are potentially postive applications of welfare that you are not addressing
yep
rumble…Africa welfare leads to a destructive lifestyle
I heard the GOP was gonna revive Reagan and run him in 08

The worlds too small for Al Quaeda to be nowhere
I am trying to get rid of my moo moo business… son…that gives alqaeda too much credit
hrm.. my government is about to go atheist.
well, since we keep catching the fucks, and killing them, I assumed they were not invisible, perhaps you are privy to something I am not.
I mean how do you officially become a member of Al Quaeda
Big Brother in 1984 is the Onerous government

Sweden’s ruling Social Democrats are falling in the polls, while the center-right Alliance is gaining support, according to the Demoskop poll published by Expressen on Thursday. Prime Minister Göran Persson’s Social Democrats, and the left-leaning Left Party and Green Party garnered the support of 44.8 percent of the electorate while the Alliance pulled in 50.2 percent.
Maybe Al Quaeda just a phantom is
My government has no corruption
Herzen Right WIngers in SWEDEN!?!?!?!? bush’s fault, gotta be

Yeah Rightwing forces always prevalent in sweden
oho….very interesting…..
but more splintered then social democrats this time they got alliance together
“The Commonwealth of Libertine Land is a small, economically powerful nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 16 million are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go o
this time it looks like they got a plurality….
How come all the other Rebel Groups have locations
lets see how the nanny cart fares
“There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals concentrates mainly on Law & Order, although Commerce and Social Equality are on the agenda. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Gambling, Retail, and Uranium Mining industries.”
Libertine…why I want high tech…so my population can move out into space
i love that there is no government in the normal sense of the word.
Al Quaeda is located mostly on TV wherever they say AL Quaeda is, it’s there sounds like 1984
In the Republic of Darth, there is no poor people. every one either gets a job, and becomes a productive member of society, or they are shot in public and with much fanfare.
CryHavoc: “and young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables.”
The Republic of Havocsboro is a small, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 16 million are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it’s difficult to tell which.
CryHavoc: i legalized gambling
The small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defence, Education, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4%. A substantial private sector is dominated by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry. Libertine …for kids too?
darth are you playing the nation state game?
CryHavoc: yep CryHavoc: teach the kids responsibility.
I dismissed that one… nope..corrupt the kids and turn them into mini IDs
Son amazing isn’t it they get these fucking videos but they can’t get rid of al qaeda
i keep dismissing the military spending one.
I lved ion Las Vegas for 10 years we only have 7 so far Libertine
The Republic of Darth has no Legislative branch, just judicial and executive, all the laws were written over a cold beer at Joe’s and blessed by 2/3 rds of the federated states
Darth make a nation state and join us
saint praxis’s taxes are insane.
we have an excellent Military infrastructure that the business’s maintain for us. when we have a problem, we just do a bid letting
“High-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, euthanasia is illegal, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, and gambling is outlawed. Crime — especially youth-related — is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Saint Praxis’s national animal is the silly monkey, which is also the nation’s favorite main course, and its currency is the conservative dollar.” is anything legal!?!?
I own a Private Organization about as half of the United Nations 
TimothyT and probably 110% more effective at its goals. the Darth Republic has some of the finest military hardware known to exist. thats because any citizen can own one.
CryHavoc: we need more people to join nationstates and our region.
Libertine lolol
it’s free..!
Libertine…thats the fun of the game I reckon Libertine…done my best
“The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Religion & Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defence. The average income tax rate is 40%, but much higher for the wealthy. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Furniture Restoration.”
Timo join our region!!!!
praxis’s government is psychotic.
lol let it develop…. why do you think I am increasing military spending
With Common laws everyone in the country knows, there is no need for lawyers, and our judical people all have regular jobs. the executive generates the most expenses, which is covered with a simple flat 4% tax across the board.
You can’t attack your neighbors in that game can you?
nope
Pfft
Herzen: nope
No point me building a military state then
we have no neighbors, they attacked us, and now they are happily part of the republic.
