That is not true. They still need probable cause to detain you, and if they have that they can actually hold you up to a max of 72 hrs before they must file actual charges. But for a stop they can only detain you in so long to effect the investagory period. That can take however long but for say a traffic stop should be like 20-30 minutes.

I would LOVE to see a source on this, but I have a feeling I already know where it is coming from.

Yeah I am betting it will be 75 for me and I am only 43 now.

He is also talking movie techno babble, with the exception of the shape charge for the tank buster. That was actually use in Afghanistan and Iraq, but the whole using microwave towers to take down a plane.

While his theory for the plane is sound he doesn’t know what equipment those towers have and there is no way to tighten the beam of a parabolic dish without changing the feed horn. Plus tightening the beam will not add power(in this case heat potential) to allow the towers to do what he wants.

The guillotine?! Which your brain/consciousness can stay functioning for 30 sec and up to like 4 min? That is better than nitrogen asphyxiation?

Now by all means by your criteria, yes it is fast and there is very little room for failure. However I think we still don’t know if it is as painless as we perceive it to be with how long you can stay concieous.

Regardless I am also of the same mind that we could move away from capital punishment as a society.

All I want is cloaks to come back into fashion.

How are they influenced, and they aren’t used being used for publicity from what I can tell from the article. One of the first posts here does a pretty good summary of the article that it centers more around the outrage than actually the after-school program itself.

I would have liked to have been a bug on the wall to hear the grand jury deliberate this one. I mean I get the knee jerk reaction, but even so a kid who it seemingly was complying with instructions, gets shot anyway. How is that not negligent?

I think they were just side stepping since they paused the lower courts ruling and then when they found out she left the state they dismissed their ruling as moot and then just went and overturned the lower courts. Pretty fucking spineless but they can still throw a supposed W and make themselves out to upholding values or some other BS talking point.
