This is a link post Another horrible gas guzzler on the way

This is a normal post I'm really not sure about this one
I like what ford did with the Mustang, and what whoever it was did with the camaro. Both of them seemed to hang on to the right elements of the originals, but this one just seems to be a little on the tame/safe side, whereas the original stingray was a fairly outrageous looking car.

This is a normal post I expect there'll be a range of lairier and scarier ones
which will probably look a bit more edgy. It's still olde worlde underneath, for the second time in a row they have developed a brand new single cam, 2 valve per cylinder engine, and it has transverse leaf-springs instead of coil-overs.

I bet it is a total hoot to drive (in America). Might get 35mpg based on the previous ones.

I don't like the back lights yet though.

This is a normal post Yep
The Mustang for example is a solid rear axle with leaf springs, unless you pay megabucks for a Roush converted one, but by then, you should have just bought a Corvette.

The Vette does have independent rear suspension, and has done since the 60s I think, but since the 5th generation it's had a weird composite leaf spring which goes from one side to the other.

Funnily though the Corvette has been one of the most successful cars in endurance racing in the last 10 years, it's been highly developed and that old push-rod lump just keeps on going.

I'm also glad to see the new one has even more electronics that won't work. :P

This is a normal post So we have lots of pretty, static pictures.
I wouldn't be surprised if the next headline reads "American Muscle car in Gutless Shocker".
A friend of mine hired on of those Mustangs when he was in Florida and said that they look and sound really great, but when you put your foot down, they're largely pointless.
They do look rather nice though.

This is a normal post I think it looks rather nice, if a bit too much like that recent Ferarri
Shame they didnt make it echo the 60s stingray rather than the 80s one, and even then it looks a bit too similar to the other modern corvettes.

Mind you - i cant design a car to save my life so what do i know?

Which has huge working machines and whatnot. Right near the greyhound stadium in Hove if you know there.

There's also somewhere on the boarder between Sussex and Hampshire but I can't remember what it's called sorry. It's like a fare/working museum. Not been there in years myself, but my friend took her little boy there last year so I know it's definitely still running.

Just to throw it in even though it's not geographically suited; I bloody love the Black Country Museum. It's a reconstructed little old Victorian mining town full of amazingly friendly yam-yams:

And they do amazing fish and chips with proper old reconditioned fish-n-chip shop stuff, and have a little old cinema that only plays charlie chaplin (and other oldies I wouldn't be able to name).

AND I think I bought a copy of the old testament in the 'black country dialect' from there once. Powerful. Very powerful. +4 to strength, but -2 to intelligence :/

and I were once thinking of getting a load of those plastic fangs and some of them weird eye contacts. Pick someone who you sort of knew, find out their routine,then pay random people to wear the fangs or contacts and to flash their fangs subtly while passing said person in the street.
Just every so often. Over time, maybe a year or so, then gradually increase this.
There was more to it, but essentially we wanted to figure out how we could make someone believe there were such things as werewolves.

This is a normal post Of course it's a fucking agenda.
The Constitution is a set of laws governing a political system. It represents a particular view of what rights and duties there might be. That's a view that may need revising from time to time, as happens in every other country. It's not at all odd to suppose that a document hastily cobbled together a couple of centuries ago might be - y'know - past it in parts. The Constitution is not god-given; it is not a law of nature.

It is very, very difficult to amend the Constitution, but that doesn't mean that it is or ought to be immune from amendment as a matter of principle. Simply pointing out that some activity or other is guaranteed as a right by the Constitution in no way demonstrates that it ought to be.

But because you disagree with me does not make me evil, or even my culture evil. Rational people can disagree without name calling and vilification. I don't want that aspect of the Constitution changed: I agree with it.

I disagree that it was hastily cobbled together; it represents thought of many years and spanning philosophies; and some believe it is god given. You may disagree: I will still be your friend.

This is a normal post It's interesting that the Koran, Bible and Torah
can be seen as out of touch because they were written for another age but that the US Constitution is still held as relative. Although two out of the three are still taken literally by powerful bodies in the US, I suppose.

Actually, forget about it. I suspect the Venn intersection of people who think the Abrahamic faiths' texts are flawed and those who think the Constitution is infallible is pretty small.

This is a normal post Compare the UK and US.
Reported rape figures are slightly higher over here. But it doesn't follow from that that the availability of guns has anything to do with it. For one thing, we don't know how many rapes actually do take place: noone thinks that reported numbers are a good guide. It's even possible that lower rates of reported rape indicate an environment that's more hostile to women, on the basis that the more comfortable they are reporting it, the more likely they are to do so.

Still, there's a number of questions that need to be asked, and they aren't all easy. Suppose wider availability of guns did reduce rates: would the price in terms of an increase in gun-deaths in other contexts be worth paying? Could we guarantee that only the bad guys would get shot? Would we want guns as a deterrent anyway? After all, that'd seem to open the way to shooting people on the basis of a suspicion that they might be about to rape you - which is not obviously desirable. Neither is it obvious that we'd want people to take the law into their own hands anyway.

The idea that the dip in gun safety is mitigated by an increase in safety in other respects is a crock. But it needs to be countered head-on.
 (I helped save b3ta! Enzyme is powered by sunlight, Mon 14 Jan 2013, 20:39, , Reply)
This is a normal post But there are studies from Yale and Harvard that indicate that an increase in gun ownership has an effect on reducing crime because criminals don't know who is armed.
Compare that to crimes that happen in places like Chicago and New York, where firearm ownership is all but prohibited: the number of homicides, assaults, hot burglaries and sexual assault are higher.

As for rape, I suppose you would have to ask a woman if her sanity and security are worth it. I would not want it to happen to any woman I know.

This is a normal post Beware of any study that cites some statistics
and then uses the word "because".

Crime rates correlate more strongly to poverty than to anything else. Chicago and New York are big cities in which poor people have easy access to middle class neighbourhoods.
 (I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Mon 14 Jan 2013, 20:55, , Reply)
This is a normal post You're poisoning the well by implying that I'd want it to happen to anyone at all.
Of course I don't. It doesn't follow that I have to accept everything that might possibly reduce its rate. If women weren't allowed out without a chaperone, that'd doubtless reduce the rate, too; but that's not the proper response to the problem, and it'd be absurd to think it was. It's not obvious that arming people'd be the proper response either.

There's a lot of things that might be supportable to reduce violent crime of all sorts; but not everything is. It's a long way from being obvious that firearms are the way to go.

You're conflating, too, the number of reported crimes with the number of actual ones. LIke I said: a higher rate of reporting might actually indicate a better environment, inasmuch as that people are more willing to take the effort to go to the police in the first place.

The fact that a study is from Yale or Harvard or Oxford or Cambridge tells us nothing about its credibility. It a quick look at the news will show that homicide rates are much, much higher.

With what are we supposed to be comparing NYC and Chicago, by the way? It's hardly surprising that crime rates are higher in cities than elsewhere. It's hardly a mandate for guns.

And there's any number of studies showing that, if you really want to reduce crime, it's going to require all kinds of social intervention in terms of welfare, education, and so on. There's even a public health aspect: there's a very close fit between a drop in the use of leaded petrol and, about 20 years later, a drop in the rate of violent crime. Implication: exposure to lead in the developing brain makes it more likely that the owner of that brain will be violent in later life. And violent crime around the developed world has been falling since about the 70s.

The point is that there's all manner of ways in which you can explain patterns of crime and crime prevention without having to mention guns once. All of which makes your belief in the redemptive power of the pistol look, at best, ill-founded.

This is a normal post Pro-tip about those statistics
The guns got banned in urban areas like New York and Chicago BECAUSE of the increasing murder rates. It's a response to the issue, not the cause. Perhaps you'd like to speculate how much lower or higher the crime rates would be without the added gun control - but it would only be speculation.

On the flip side, the locations with lower gun crimes and lax gun control tend to be more rural; with sparse populations, less poverty, better education etc. (confounding variables which greatly influence crime rates as well).
