It has nothing to do with your definition of suburb, it's a basic truth of the DC metropolitan area. No true suburb of DC is in fact inside the District's borders.

Thats what I didn't know though. I mean, when the word suburb is used, I usually think of it as a residential area within a town, as in the Pine Hill suburbs of Plymouth or Kingston.

Not like, Braintree is a suburb of Boston.
I thought that you lived in the confines of DC, not outside of it.

Which would be the reasons for my critique on DC gun laws

I'll stay where I am, thanks. DC is probably the most balanced, blended city in the entire country, and I'm in a suburb of it.

Response to: Consumer Product Safety Act Posted March 24th, 2009 in Politics

Excuse me for asking this.

But where in this is the reason that I should start caring?

I mean, law passed that limits the amount of lead used in products related for children.

Children can no longer ride certain sized ATV's due to lead count.

Maybe I'm missing the important part here, because from what I seeing this is about as big as the Chicago Cubs world series chances.

Just by using only a couple of edited stories of the possilble 12 gospels PROVES TO ME BEYOUND A SHAWDOW OF A DOUBT, that in writing the early "christian" version of the new testiment was done by throwing out all the thoughts & stories by MOST OF THE DICIPLES, that the 'church' of the day didn't like or didn't go along with the OFFICIAL Church line..

Problem is, there was no official church in that day yet. The Bishop in Rome(the soon to be pope) didn't have the religous supremacy that he did in the middle ages as was competing with the Bishops in Alexandria, Jerusalem and Damascus. There was no unified church at this point (which was a reason for the meetings that they had).

Likewise, you seem to cast doubt on the included gospels, citing thier age and the lack of real connections, yet the minute one comes out that you agree with, it's the complete truth and nobody can argue with it.

There's a reason that these "gospels" if they even can be called that were cut out and included. When you can't cross check these gospels, when there are accusations or claims that aren't in any of the others, it puts a bit doubt onto the intent or the actuall accuracy of these gospels.

Small amount of people= less political and financial clout.

Well, I feel that Stallin was truly connected to his faith about the workers revolution.

Therefore, 100% respect for the man.

Or how about this, you don't respect someone who puts thier faith into any activity that requires ( I swear to god if I hear somone bitch about comparitive morality) you to take away someone else's rights or life.

Wait,

let me get this. People are hypocritical towards authority figures, and more importantly the police. Who would think.

But in reality, while seeing the general truth about this, and how I agree with. My sense of the human character still says that cop haters are going to completely ignore this.

I wouldn't say that. Anyone who thinks about burning down his school clearly is fucked in the head to begin with. Sure, many of us have/do have difficulties in school, but are rational enough to not resort to violence.

I wouldn't believe that.
I'm mean, sure the kid was pretty bullied to complete hell for him to consider this, but the person was still in controll of his senses and his mind throughout. I mean, he knew what he was doing amd all that rot.
While his social ennui and malaise may have been "more severe" hoping to iniatite and maybe actually enact violence upon people doesn't mean the person is sick in the head.

It means he's human, like all of us. Were a violent species.

Maybe we should apologize to Al Capone's descendants (if he has any) for locking him up for tax evasion too. Because as we now know, tax evaders are true patriots fighting an unjust system.

I mean beyond the obvious reasons for locking up Capone for tax evasion, I see nothing wrong with tax evaders.
