Saying CASL applies to any message accessed in Canada is meaningless. Canadian law can't be applied to foreign entities. Reminds me of what happened with the national do-not-call list.

Solution #5: The retards in charge of current policy accept that no sane terrorist would joke about smuggling a bomb through a TSA checkpoint while in the queue at said checkpoint, and thus stop arresting people for jokes.

Wasn't the original done in flash like...a decade ago?

Okay. So I think we can all agree that public bathrooms need to be cleaned regularly. Its a shitty job (pun intended), but it needs to be done.

In a GBI system, where's the incentive for anyone to do this?

Okaaaaaaaaaaaay. What about February, which ends on day 28 or 29?

Yeah, that sort of mentality is awful. Extreme exercise just isn't sustainable. People who are really overweight need to accept that it may take a few years to reach their goals.

What I did was stop eating until I'm full, and start eating just enough to feel not hungry. Found it to be a pretty good rough guideline. Never bothered counting calories or anything like that. Nice thing about this method (I figure) is that it solves the problem of not knowing quantitatively where that maintenance level lies on any given day.

If you eat less (below maintenance) and move more, you'll lose weight. That's just biological reality. I did that and have lost 15lbs in the past two months. Any psychological factors don't alter this basic fact.

I read your comment just fine. I feel that even in a public sphere like Facebook, it shouldn't warrant that kind of response.

I'm willing to bet that's just a theoretical upper limit, and will be tossed out at soon as its in front of a judge. But still. The fact he was arrested at all is just friggin stupid.

...you can't find sympathy for someone who gets arrested for making a remark which is very obviously sarcastic/joking/hyperbolic that was taken completely out of context? People need to lighten the fuck up, and take context into account.

Also, once again the scope creep of the word "terrorist" ("terroristic") is deeply disturbing.
