Oh please. You and others seem to want to make this an analog of Iraq. It isn't even close. This isn't some unilateral imperialistic crusade, it's limited strategic international aid to Libyan rebels, and an attempt to limit casualties by neutering the Libyan military's air force. There is plenty of room for criticism, and the wisdom of this action is yet to be determined, but let's try to separate self gratifying hyperbole from reality. >> ^GeeSussFreeK:

Roman Emperors needed to establish legitimacy of their claim to the throne via a initial, successful, millitary campaign. I see an unfortunate parallel in our own time.

We need to pass a law in the UK that ensures the chemical neutering of the chav population.

Say sorry to her? *SLAP* Oops, I'm sorry my hand slipped.

Via ANTI* Net-Neutrality

The concept of internet neutrality is as it exists today (for the most part), an open bastion for anyone who wants to, being able to express themselves in a multitude of ways.

I wish we had a better name for it, like Liberty Net or something. Everyone tends to hear the neutrality part as neutering or neutralizing, when in fact it is trying to express that the net should not have limits/censorship/bias.

Their government shut off the internet. In unrelated news, the US moves to give government absolute control over the internet via Net Neutrality.

EIA. That dog is probably neutered which means it can't reproduce, so EIA.

2bbl Rochester, bad cam, they did some ridiculous things to start addressing pollution.
A 750 cfm Holley double pumper (or two) or a Carter, better spring rate and some Koni firecrackers to dampen would have change things considerably. This was not a handling vehicle anyway. 396cid is still my favorite engine. I drove one that when stepped into on the rear bumper of a semi at 55mph would be at 110mph at the front bumper.

XKE E Type coupe, one of the sexiest autos ever. 246cid inline six would run. Incredible handling. Now neutered Fords with kitty on the hood. (Didn't get to see it. )

Pay attention pet owners! This is what happens when you dress animals! Spay or neuter your pets, and keep the damned hats, sweaters and costumes to yourselves!

Pathetic -- being gay is wrong. What isn't there to understand. Wrong is wrong.


You're entitled to your opinion. I happen to think you're a mouth breathing fuckwit who should be neutered for the good of the planet. =)

Since there's about as much chance of that happening as homosexuality magically disappearing (in fact, there's probably more chance you get neutered) I guess you're just going to have to live with it...

ps. Troll is troll. Troll is wrong.

Happens a lot with people who don't ask any questions about dog/cat temperaments/sizes and buy whatever they think is cute. Then they end up with a really big dog, or a siamese cat that bites their kids when they "play" with it. Tons of people moved off and left pets when they lost their houses, just left them wherever..in the yard..locked in the house...out in the neighborhood. I'd imagine people would abandon their children, but they might end up in jail if they did that.

I understand people make mistakes and end up with kids (although a lot just dont bother trying to prevent it), but it's a choice to take in a pet. Government has programs to let people give up their children if they can't deal with it, but when it comes to pets there's very little past animal control and they only really come out over violent animals. So, I think the law should pick up the slack and bust down people who take in pets and don't do right by them. Dog fighting rings are one of the more popular things the news focuses on, but there are a lot of dogs just simply being starved to death.

Parents adopted a german shephard who was maybe 2-3 years old, people have him in their back yard chained to a tree with a massive chain wrapped around to where he barely had 5 feet of slack. The collar was too tight and digging into his flesh. They threw garbage out there with him, he'd eat what he could of it...and of course it had cans/glass/whatever else in it. They rarely gave him water, my parents were secretly feeding/watering him during the summer while they tried to get someone with authority to remove him to come out. When they finally did come out, they said since he had food and water..he was considered cared for...the stuff my parents had put out. So they had to just talk the owners of the dog into giving him up. He's about 8 years old now, has had heart worms and problems associated with that and lots of messed up teeth due to his early years, and has what I'd call abandonment issues but those could be related to him getting older and not hearing/seeing as well...he just doesn't like to be alone. But it pisses me off still knowing that he has spent the rest of his life suffering from what those people did to him. Yes his life is better, and he probably wouldn't have lived as long if they had decided to keep him but it wasn't the first or the last animal they had before moving off.

Strays aren't nearly as helpless as a dog in that situation. Although I know a lot of people take it upon themselves to aim for animals crossing streets while driving their cars...and leaving out poisoned food and water. Was some news stories of a guy catching strays and feeding them anti-freeze...which basically kills your kidneys and you die of kidney failure in all it's glory....slow and painful.

Spay and neuter your pets and avoid puppy and kitten mills. This wouldn't happen if there wasn't an extreme abundance of stray cats and dogs dumped by owners who like puppies and kittens and get rid of them after the cute stage has come and gone.

People fucking do that? Well, people leave their cats outside, de-clawed.
A couple days ago I walked outside, saw this well groomed cat. I walked right up to it, and said, "What the fuck are you doing outside?" It mewed at me. I was about to take it home when I saw the tag with a phone number. When I called the owner of the cat, they didn't speak a lick of English and never even heard of the damned cat.

My parents inherited some property when my grandma passed, where she used to live before she became to frail to live alone. There was a stray cat explosion there around the time she moved out of the house. Still had to maintain the place, and you'd see upwards of 20 stray cats at times. There were maybe two houses there who were guilty of buying/taking in animals they didn't properly care for. Since you can get in trouble with dogs more easily than cats, these same people tended to keep them locked in their yards slowly starving and dehydrating them. The cats roamed free, bred like crazy. People generally try to keep them fed, but it's roughly 50-75 bucks a cat to get them checked for feline leukemia and then neutered/spayed... and roughly the same if they test positive for feline leukemia and have to be put down because they'll kill all the other cats eventually if returned. And it seems like an injustice to capture them and have them all put down when they aren't hurting anyone or attacking people's pets.

Only thing that can help the problem is stricter laws on pet owners, because allowing people to continually take in/buy/adopt pets and slowly torture them to death via extreme heat/cold/lack of food/water/no vaccinations/medical treatment is not being punished severely enough to stop it. It's just too wrong to see it happen and know the law won't punish them enough to deter others.

What was the point of all the "bipartisanship"? And all the wasted time on it. To prove a point? In the end it all worked out exactly the way everyone knew it would. ZERO republican votes. So why neuter the bill? The public option should have been there. The whole thing is pointless imo without it.

It's one of those times where, well ... since you're accused of something you might as well do it.
They should have "jammed it down their throats".
They did anyway.

And that's exactly why the people who voted for them did so, to get that shit done.

On the bright side, the guy wasn't tazered and dragged out.

THAT'S what neutering is?!

Don't forget to spay and neuter your pets!

The Sea Shepherd ship looks like something built for Batman. It's too bad they do good work. Apparently they were picked up by a new five million dollar ship payed for and named after Bob Barker. promote

Kent Jones was SO much funnier on the radio show... I dunno, the format of the TV show just seems to neuter him somehow. Tsk, most unfortunate.
