Remotely operated sniper rifles? Okay. I have a question though; if you're building a fence or doing some other option what happens to the towns that sit very close to or right on the border? Wait, don't tell me it's going to be Eminent Domain?

Ddin't another incident occur in New Jersey with an off-duty LEO and a MP5 a few years ago?

Huh? If authorizing the President of the United States to take military action against another nation isn't a declaration of war, what is? I've looked back through the Constitution and all I see under Article I is " To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning...

Hmm. I'll readily admit to my ignorance on this subject, but I'd just like to throw in my 2 cents. For my very limited understanding, it isn't the military's decision to where they fight; it's the politician's decision. What precedent will be set if the Lieutenant manages to successfully pull...

Hmm? The use of atomics against humans is a major no-no (planetary obliteration is the punishment.) The only use of an atomic I can recall is near the end of Dune when an atomic was used to blow a hole in the Shield Wall to permit a major sandstorm into the basin where the opposing forces were...

Out of curosity, how would the logistics of such an endeavor work? I'm just going to pick a number...say...10,000 students graduate high school a year. How is distribution and training going to work? I'm having trouble imagining the military coping with a sudden influx. Boot camp takes ermm...8...

Okay, I'll admit I'm a product of public education, but if he is 21 or 22 (which seems to be the case if the Wikipedia article is correct and he was born in 1984), he'd sure have to wait a while until he's 35 which is the minimum age to be elected as President. Heck, he can't even be elected to...

Wrong news article?

!!! If I tried an experiment like that in High School I would be lucky to get an F and a stern lecture by my science teacher about how to perform experiments. How can college and university students get away with horribly flawed experiments? Hmm...I wonder what would happen if they had a...

Mall...lockdown? I can imagine evacuating a mall, but a mall lockdown? I just couldn't see it happening, especially since if they barracaded the emergency doors it could, AFAIK, end up for some serious civil liabilities.

You know, I have to admit that I always get a chuckle out of the idea that violent video games can somehow make someone more prone to violent acts. Well, I guess it could happen if someone doesn't have a firm grasp on reality. Even the infamous Soldier of Fortune games full of graphic...

Oh, come on, now! Of course NYC is fake! Next you'll expect me to believe those movie things are fake, too...

I know my knowledge in structual engineering is rather thin, but I would think that a "traditional" building that rests on an interior framework would fall differently compared to a building where the outside walls are the supports and the inside is basically a hollow cylinder. Also, if a...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but for almost any Federal Government position (not including members of Congress or political appointments), isn't the person required to take an exam that tests their knowledge?

66. I'm not a Libertarian, I'm a Constitutionalist (Strict Construction).

They don't have a single manual on firearms inspections? Isn't that kind of...unusual?

Hmm. I graduated from High School nearly two years ago. The school district had three different policies: Code Red (fire), Code Yellow (unknowns in the school), and Code Black (bomb threat.) The plans for each, respectively, was: leave the school, lockdown, leave the school. Only...

The Japan-ermm...Nazis.

NO! I don't know what forum etiquette you know, but forum invasions are stupid things that is very similar to shouting out people with whom you don't agree. Other then being stupid it opens up counter-invasions, flamewars, and tarnishes the board(s) it occured from. All activity on a...

But...but...it includes a free year of ammunition! That seems like quite the deal to me. :evil:
