There would be almost none. If you are capable of being a lawyer and have the education to be one, you wouldn't choose to be a cop.
I sincerely doubt that. I don't doubt its poorly optimized, but it does its job. It just isn't a job that most people here want done.
Will you people stop complaining about the switch being underpowered? Why does it have to be powerful? If you want something powerful, don't buy it. Simple as that.
I believe emotion is the basis for morality, and there is no objective morality. I have little emotional reaction to an ant dying. I have some emotional reaction to a dolphin dying. I have a great emotional reaction to a human dying. Your emotional reactions to these things are different from mine. That's where the conversation ends for me.
I could make up an explanation like yours to explain why I feel this way, but the truth is that I just feel this way. I believe that's also the real explanation for why you feel the way you do. I doubt you really logic and reasoned your way into caring for humans and animals equally.
I agree this is probably caused by reports of human murder being so common. Eventually you get desensitized to tragedy when you see it enough. Maybe this was just different enough from the norm that it got that emotional response.
I don't understand how you can think humans aren't special in any way. They are the most special animal I can think of. I can understand if you value animal lives more than I do. That's pretty subjective, although I think most people value human lives much more than animal lives.
Its not that I don't "understand" I just disagree. I do not value animal lives as much as human lives which is why I'm not referring to this as a real murder. This is sad of course and whoever did it deserves to be punished for it. Its just odd to me that this is such a big deal to so many people when so many human beings are being murdered on a daily basis. The reaction I've seen to this outweighs that of any human murder I've seen in recent memory.
The original post was incorrect but you circled back around to being incorrect in the opposite way. Those two things don't have a causal relationship.
Its a common thing that farmers do. It helps them prepare the field after a harvest to use it again.
Its important to specify what you mean by community. Is it a city, a district, a neighborhood? If its a city, then even if all 300 murders happened in that city, it still wouldn't be a leading cause of death. It is much more possible that a smaller group of people may have been targeted enough that this could be a leading cause of death. Although, I''m still skeptical based on that 300 statistic for the entire country.
I personally know many people who have died of cancer and none who have been killed by police. But, that means effectively nothing. Its an anecdote that has no value as evidence. I want statistics, not stories. Its not your job to educate me, but you are volunteering to put time and effort into arguing your case with me. I don't think its that crazy to then expect you to back up that case with actual evidence.
It doesn't make you look reasonable when you refuse to back up your claims, and then call me uneducated because I don't already agree with you.
Or maybe it means she had heard about that elsewhere, but not where she lived. Why do you feel the need to make her seem like a villain in some way? She's just a poor a woman who was fearing for her child's life.
