    So, I guess we should arrest every Catholic priest and take every kid who ever had contact with a priest into custody. That is the equivalent. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

    So, one girl calls and says she was abused, and that justifies taking 400 other children into state custody? And now they can't even find that original caller? (fishy) On top of that they refuse to honor the sanctity of the temple? (try that with a mosque) I am not for polygamy or child abuse, but I think the law may have gone a bit too far in this case. It worries me that we think we have rights, UNLESS you are part of a sect on the fringe of society, in which case you have no rights, evidently. There must have been a better way to do this. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
  3. The USA doesn't have these jamming laws in most states. And how can the camera use no flash? Night vision? Infrared illuminator. Standard CCD sensors used in consumer camcorders and still cameras will pickup near infrared when not equipped with a filter. Driving lights with IR filters might do the trick. They're even commercially available. OK, I'd add an IR illuminator just above the plate as well as a flash. This would cover both types of cameras. And what's with all the fucking cameras? Didn't anyone read Orwell in school? -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
  4. Where? Why? Can you show me the law? I fail to see how this is not the same as the radar defeating devices that are legal in many states. I don't know if Shropshire's thinking of a different law, but in Britain I'd imagine this would fall foul of the legal requirement to have one's registration plate in a visible and legible condition when on the road. You'd also fall foul of the the law for jamming and because to set the GATSO off in the first place you were breaking the law by speeding. BTW, the newer digital Speed cameras don't use a flash. The USA doesn't have these jamming laws in most states. And how can the camera use no flash? Night vision? No matter what the technology, it can be defeated if you put your mind to it. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
  5. I'm fairly certain you can easily modify a flash to give off high amounts of IR, which would produce the same effect. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
  6. Where? Why? Can you show me the law? I fail to see how this is not the same as the radar defeating devices that are legal in many states. I don't know if Shropshire's thinking of a different law, but in Britain I'd imagine this would fall foul of the legal requirement to have one's registration plate in a visible and legible condition when on the road. It would be completely visible and legible - just not to a camera. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
  7. ya got me Still looks like the torch carriers (bottom of a manpile, getting hit, sprayed and burned) are in the middle of it, not the police and security off to the distance. The police and security have the job to be in the thick of it. OK. The protestors are initiating it, so OK if they get bumped around and even hurt too. The runners didn't sign up for any of it. I like LawRocket's post best. Go blow out the flame in Beijing. Maybe it will discourage some runners from carrying that torch of utter shame. And anyone who carries it from here on out knows what is coming, so no whining when it happens. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
  8. That shit don't work. Mythbusters episode on it. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
  9. Yeah, let's hand China a huge moral and propaganda victory to exploit, like the world did for Hitler in 1936. Great. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
  10. Wherever that torch goes there will be protests, and rightly so. China should have never been rewarded with the Olympics. Plus, it's hilarious to see people chasing the torch with fire extinguishers! -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
  11. Mythbusters showed that it did not work. Mine would work though based on the inverse square law. The plate would be so bright that no camera's exposure lattitude would be enough for a clear image. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

  13. I though of a way to defeat these, and I think I could design it. All you would need is a flash sensor (slave) on the back of your car, and a small flash in the area just above your plate, where the little light is. When the sensor sees the flash from the speed camera, it triggers the flash above the plate, and it would totally wash out the plate and make it just a white blob in the middle of the photo. I could demonstrate this very easily with camera gear that I have. Any thoughts? -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

  15. What do you expect? We have that black dude traveling the country asking everyone for change: http://www.theonion.com/content/news/black_guy_asks_nation_for_change -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
  16. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,345648,00.html Biting its nose? That could have ended in disaster! -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
  17. I can think of another orifice that I would rather cram the thing up into. Get one of those gigantic novelty cigars and when you see her coming, light it up. I used to see them for sale at a rural "trading post" type store. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
  18. Without knowing actually what happened, does anyone else find thing really strange? Seems like a rather weird thing to just offer up. Cop: Excuse me sir, do you know why I stopped you? Idiot: Is it because I just came from that hooker? Cop: Well, no sir, it's because I clocked you going 65 mph is a school zone. Idiot: Holy crap! Is there a school zone right next to the hotel where I just left the hooker? Cop: Well, sir, I'm not exactly sure, but there is a school zone right here. Can I see your license please? Idiot: Crap! I think I left it with the hooker. That's what I was thinking. And the article doesn't say why they pulled him over in the first place. I doubt that leaving a seedy hotel is probably cause.... -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

  23. Yeah, well, that's also what Mary told Joseph. If you were here right now you would be getting surgery on your jaw. But hey....whatever.... Enjoy your whores. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
  24. And it doesn't hurt that both men and women liberals have vaginas. You are hilarious. Since I am liberal on some issues, yet have a concealed carry permit, I don't think this applies to me. The same way male conservatives apologize for beating their wives. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
  25. Ok... PM me your girlfriends name and I'll look it up (unless she got boring and I threw the number away). Well, I have a wife who was a virgin, so you missed one. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.
