Incredibly stupid and negligent to let any 9 year old use a gun of any kind frankly. Even a 22 single shot. I do not care how precocious they may be.
202  Other / Politics & Society / 9 year old girl kills bloke stone dead with full auto machine gun on: September 01, 2014, 06:07:10 PM
The fateful seconds before nine-year-old girl accidentally shot her gun instructor dead with an Uzi: Video of child losing control of submachine gun after being told to go 'full auto' released by cops.

* Charles Vacca, a father and army veteran, was assisting the little girl at a shooting range just south of Las Vegas on Monday morning

* She pulled the trigger of an automatic Uzi and the recoil sent the gun over her head, shooting Vacca

* He was airlifted to hospital but died on Monday evening

* Girl was with her parents at Bullets and Burgers shooting range on vacation from New Jersey

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Q8tW0btnis

Recorded at the Bullets and Burgers shooting range in White Hills, Arizona, an edited clip plays up to the point where the girl loses control of an Uzi, killing 39-year-old Charles Vacca.

The shocking recording taken by the girl's parents and released by police shows Vacca standing closely next to the girl when the gun recoiled as she fired on full automatic mode.

As the clip unfolds, Vacca is seen to instruct the girl to hold the weapon with two hands at all times and to take a perpendicular stance to the target.

Then Vacca asks her to fire one shot for him, which she does.

Then, Vacca tells the girl to adjust her stance and squeeze the trigger to let off a volley, but something goes wrong when she fires a second time.

His last words to the girl are: 'Alright, full auto.'

The girl loses her two-handed grip on the weapon and it pulls to her left, striking Vacca in the head.

Charles Vacca, a father and veteran from Lake Havasu City, Arizona, was airlifted to hospital on Monday morning after the little girl shot him but died that evening.

Mohave County Sheriff Jim McCabe said the full video of the incident was 'ghastly'.

Social media was incredulous about the tragic accident, with most people posting comments as to why a nine-year-old was allowed to fire an automatic weapon.

Liz Matthews of the John Clayton Show on 710 ESPN in Seattle said, 'A story involving a nine-year-old shooting an UZI at a place called Burgers and Bullets would have been appalling enough. Horrifying.'

Nikki Bateman simply asked, 'why you'd even let a nine year old handle a gun in the first place?!'

Cameron Atfield directed his anger at the parents stating he 'hoped the parents are charged.'

Friends paid tribute to Vacca, an army veteran and a married father, as a great friend and soldier on Facebook. Best friend Robert Vera said they often laughed so much that they couldn't breathe.

'He became a brother and a major part of my life through thick and thin,' Vera said. 'Rest In Peace brother.'

The incident occurred at the Arizona Last Stop, which is about 25 miles south of Las Vegas, the Mohave County Sheriff's Office told AZFamily. It is home to a shooting range, Bullets and Burgers.

'Our guests have the opportunity to fire a wide range of fully automatic machine guns and specialty weapons,' its website states. 'At our range, you can shoot FULL auto on our machine guns. Let 'em Rip!'

When contacted by MailOnline, staff at Bullets and Burgers would not comment on the incident and referred questions to a nearby gun emporium, but would not say whether or not they were affiliated.

Arizona gun laws require a person to be at least 18 years old to carry a firearm, but the laws do not apply on private property or if the minor is accompanied by a parent or a certified instructor.


Should young girls in wild hot and not fully developed areas of the globe like africa, america and the middle east be allowed the chance to blow the heads off blokes with uzis ?

Also, noting another incident of a dog shooting his owner last year, should animals like cats and dogs also be legislated against from handling machine guns even when chaperoned on firing ranges or in the back yards of their owners ?
203  Other / Politics & Society / Electric utilities are blowing cost of energy theft out of proportion on: September 01, 2014, 05:56:31 PM
Looking into the matter further, I am seeing a lot of similarities between software piracy and electricity "theft".

When you look at the amount of electricity flowing in those power wires up in the sky, this is what it might look like. Of course, utility companies are itching to sell more power during the low use.
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/britis...-year-1.969837

It looks like cost of theft is blown way out of proportion as a justification for their rates and war on drugs. Unlike theft of durable goods, they aren't always real cost.

If you tag along a paying customer on a bus without paying the fare and you get off with him, they will claim you "cost" them the fare, but the incremental cost is so small that it is not measurable. It is along the same idea as someone downloading a software cost the developer their asking retail price.

The above is only true if it was completely full and you caused a fare paying customer to get turned away.

"BC Hydro says the theft of electricity — mostly from marijuana grow operations — now costs $100 million every year.

Hydro spokesperson Cindy Verschoor said that's a significant increase from the estimated $30-million revenue loss from electricity theft in 2006, the last time Hydro calculated the loss."

So, who is it really costing if they're only sipping from HYDRO's power during low usage? Especially if they're tapping into medium voltage with their own transproducer without taking away capacity from anyone. I somehow doubt the hydro's paying anyone for the use of water and it's not actually costing them anything for the kWh taken. This is as opposed to plugging into someone's generator and causing the throttle to open up more and consume more gas that they have to pay for.

A convincing tattle meter protest YouTube video that gets a large number of hydro's customer to set the thermostat in the house to switch on at exactly 6PM, switch on every thing in the house for 5 minutes from 6PM to 6:05PM and shift as much of power use to between 5 and 7PM while avoiding use between 10PM and 4AM in will cost them a lot more than all the theft

What we need to do if they do leave this country is to do a total boycott so they go broke.  Perhaps if we would do that to each business that moves their jobs overseas then we can have the tax dollars needed to rebuild our country that made this corporation rich.  We need the people in this country to stand up and tell corporate America that we will no longer put up with their bullshit.

  Its simple, send them a message if they won't pay the taxes they owe to the American people then the American people should respond by not buying anything from them.   We know the government won't do anything to help as long as the tea party holds sway.
I realize high taxes are not an issue for you, but some of us pay through the nose, and we're tired of it.  Same for corporations where the US has the highest tax rate in the world.   Like I said...corporations are in business to make a profit for their shareholders.   I realize that's a concept lost on someone like you who worked for a government entity.
The FACTS are that corporate taxes are at the lowest levels since WWII, and corporate profits have already recovered even from the economic collapse of 2008.

As for Burger King's Canada connection, I read more about it. They're doing this by purchasing Tim Horton's.  When I visited Canada a couple of years ago, I stopped several times in Tim Horton's stores. They're like our Dunkin Donuts. I just hope for Canada's sake that Burger King doesn't ruin them.
Facts are always helpful. Here are some useful facts:

Burger King pays an effective tax rate of 27% in the US due to the plethora of tax loopholes.
Canada has a corporate tax rate of 26%, hardly a huge savings there.
Profitable corporations in the US pay an average tax rate of 13%, making the top rate more unreal than real.
Corporate revenues constitute a smaller percentage of federal revenues than any time in the last 50 years today. So much for the regressive Obama rates.
US corporate profits are at record highs as are mergers funded by high profits. Our corporations have never had it better.

Yeah, most decent browsers will remember what you input in the box, but there are browsers that just forget everything you typed (looking at you, Firefox). Which is one of the reasons I don't use Firefox anymore.

I think firefox does it for security purpose to protect your data, like going back on passwords and etc.  Thats why they are the most respected browsers.
208  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Did you know that the US is the Second Largest Bitcoin Holder? on: August 30, 2014, 05:35:20 PM
It sucks that no one stood together and decided not to buy the bitcoins from the government unless they were going to offer the coin for 250 each and thats it.  If the bitcoin community didnt buy it Im sure the price of bitcoin would have sold far more cheaper in the auction

It's not like the sole guy who bought them is trying to chop up California into several states or something.  Shocked

no your right, I was thinking of what Umair said, it would make sense if the community stood against the gov and not paid a dime for them, but greed is greed, and once the greed machine is running, it cant be stopped.

This is all bullshit and greed. Corporations in America HAVE recovered from the Bush era economic collapse. The only people still hurting are the working class and the poor, and that's neither because of the basic economy or because of US taxes - it's because of corporate greed.  You want to reduce US corporate taxes even more? Fine. I'd support that - IF in the same bill, tax penalties for US corporations who offshore and tariffs on imports from any country whose treatment of workers is even worse than ours are included.
BK has closed around 300 stores during that great recovery you claim obama the savior initiated in America after the housing crash caused by congressional over regulation and forced mortgage scam. The idea that if you tax corps to death while regulation them out of business makes for a good economy is a leftie wet dream that isn't based in reality. Google Canada tax reduction to get a look at what it did for their country's economy, then see CA's corp tax increase to see what it did to their economy.  The evil greedy corps you lefties despise are leaving the country, that should make you happy. Besides, it doesn't matter how much the government raises taxes or how much it takes in each year they have never come in on budget, always overspend and always just borrow more money for whatever they want without regard for fiscal responsibility or how much they're screwing the tax payers.
As I said - if they want to leave, let them - but take all their stores with them, and make room for others who want to be here. You think American taxes suck so you want to go to another country, good - go. Just don't expect to make your profits here while you pay your taxes there. I know that's not going to happen - because the law is fouled up and supports this kind of greed. But it should be that way.
Yeah, you don't work for BK so why should you care how many thousands of people get laid off permanently and lose their income, their benefits and their future. Fuck em right ? How about all the Tim Hortons in the US, they're Canadian owned, should we throw them out too? Maybe if we tax the corps enough and bully them enough we can get rid of the majority of corps and they can be replaced with small mom and pop companies that can afford the start up costs in the US that make it almost impossible to start a business. Your hatred will drive corps out and jobs out dd and drive the country broke, all out of greed and hatred for a foolish agenda that says if you tax the crap out of corps all of Americas problems will be solved.
If BK goes to Canada, and takes all their stores with them, someone else will start a business here to fill the void.  My problem with them and companies like them is that they want all the benefits of doing business in the US and none of the responsibilities.
Yeah, sure, just like all the manufacturing jobs that went to mexico and china were replaced by other manufacturing jobs. Keep telling yourself that pretty lie  and keep refusing to learn from history past and present that proves raising taxes drives jobs out of the country and reducing taxes brings them back.
you can't understand the difference between manufacturing jobs and consumer retail jobs. If Burger King went away, there would still be a market for burgers.  Existing chains would expand and perhaps another new one would  initiate.  The market is here. There's a reason they're only talking about moving their corporate HQ and not their stores, you twit.

By the way, as much as you think those corps pay taxes out of the ceo pay or hope they have enough profits at the end of the year to pay them, the truth is they roll the cost of taxes into the price you pay for goods and services so the higher the taxes the more you pay out of your pocket. Its your money those corps use to pay the feds, idiot.
And which is more profitable for the government, paying unemployment benefits to a worker that no longer pays income taxes or lowering corp taxes to keep jobs in the US?
And my problem with people like you is that you sit there and pretend to give a shit about "all those workers" and yet, you absolutely oppose them getting a living wage.  You aren't fooling anyone. All you do is lick the boots of corporate masters.
The government job is safe so what do you care how many thousands lose theirs, if that's what it takes to support your messiah and promote your hatred for greedy corps you'll do it no matter how stupid you have to make yourself.

This is all bullshit and greed. Corporations in America HAVE recovered from the Bush era economic collapse. The only people still hurting are the working class and the poor, and that's neither because of the basic economy or because of US taxes - it's because of corporate greed.  You want to reduce US corporate taxes even more? Fine. I'd support that - IF in the same bill, tax penalties for US corporations who offshore and tariffs on imports from any country whose treatment of workers is even worse than ours are included.
BK has closed around 300 stores during that great recovery you claim obama the savior initiated in America after the housing crash caused by congressional over regulation and forced mortgage scam. The idea that if you tax corps to death while regulation them out of business makes for a good economy is a leftie wet dream that isn't based in reality. Google Canada tax reduction to get a look at what it did for their country's economy, then see CA's corp tax increase to see what it did to their economy.  The evil greedy corps you lefties despise are leaving the country, that should make you happy. Besides, it doesn't matter how much the government raises taxes or how much it takes in each year they have never come in on budget, always overspend and always just borrow more money for whatever they want without regard for fiscal responsibility or how much they're screwing the tax payers.
As I said - if they want to leave, let them - but take all their stores with them, and make room for others who want to be here. You think American taxes suck so you want to go to another country, good - go. Just don't expect to make your profits here while you pay your taxes there. I know that's not going to happen - because the law is fouled up and supports this kind of greed. But it should be that way.
Yeah, you don't work for BK so why should you care how many thousands of people get laid off permanently and lose their income, their benefits and their future. Fuck em right ? How about all the Tim Hortons in the US, they're Canadian owned, should we throw them out too? Maybe if we tax the corps enough and bully them enough we can get rid of the majority of corps and they can be replaced with small mom and pop companies that can afford the start up costs in the US that make it almost impossible to start a business. Your hatred will drive corps out and jobs out dd and drive the country broke, all out of greed and hatred for a foolish agenda that says if you tax the crap out of corps all of Americas problems will be solved.
If BK goes to Canada, and takes all their stores with them, someone else will start a business here to fill the void.  My problem with them and companies like them is that they want all the benefits of doing business in the US and none of the responsibilities.
Yeah, sure, just like all the manufacturing jobs that went to mexico and china were replaced by other manufacturing jobs. Keep telling yourself that pretty lie  and keep refusing to learn from history past and present that proves raising taxes drives jobs out of the country and reducing taxes brings them back.

By the way, as much as you think those corps pay taxes out of the ceo pay or hope they have enough profits at the end of the year to pay them, the truth is they roll the cost of taxes into the price you pay for goods and services so the higher the taxes the more you pay out of your pocket. Its your money those corps use to pay the feds, idiot.
And which is more profitable for the government, paying unemployment benefits to a worker that no longer pays income taxes or lowering corp taxes to keep jobs in the US?
