Re: [CGUYS] illegal search warrant?

Actually I was half right. Note the fine print of the map: Based on death data from 2000 through 2006, this US map of the smoothed, county-level, age-adjusted suicide rates indicate that suicide rates are highest in the western and northwestern regions of the United States. There is also a no

Product testing? I'm thinking of the stealth fighter jet of the 80s'. I'm sure it was product tested and didn't need to be parked in the parking lot of a bar. Come on, common sense. The guy who lost the phone also lost his common sense. And so did Apple, in this instance. Jeff Miles j

Re: [CGUYS] illegal search warrant?

It's not a fair comparison because a car left running (while stupid, and illegal in my town) has a high expectation of being reclaimed or returned to by the owner. A phone left and not claimed within a reasonable amount of time is considered abandoned. And I'd consider a "reasonable amou

I hate being stuck in the middle. I have to agree with you Mike. I'm a stanch liberal, but also a strong advocate of toting guns. For those who think guns kill people and not people kill people, by that logic we should ban cars. We should also ban all smoking, all alcohol and anything pr

It is a very conservative town. I live in the part of the state where many want to break the state in two. We'd have the liberal West Washington state and the conservative East Washington state. I think that would be horrible, giving us an odd number of states, unless we can all go along

You are assuming a lot. So far no one has been tried and convicted. Therefore, legally, no illegalities have occurred. When it's been deemed, tried and a jury says so, then you can rightfully claim illegalities occurred. I'll say the same to you that I said to Tipa, I guess you're excuse
