POT. He was selling POT.

No one ever died from POT unless someone shot them over it.

The house was surrounded - he was not going anywhere.

YOU do not walk away, do you? You spray water into it. You don't think you need to run inside and turn off the stove.

You're not dumb enough to run into a house that's fully involved - that cop was dumb enough to run into a house where someone could have ambushed him.

All they had to do was tell the guy to come out with his hands up, like police used to do. He wasn't going anywhere.

I know what it is like.

Therefore, the LAST thing I would do is kick in a door when someone one the other side might be waiting to shoot me. The guy is surrounded, you just tell him to get himself outside with his hands up.

But of course, then he has a chance to flush the $10 bag of pot, and that would be a tragedy.

That split-second killed an unarmed man.

Oh yeah, the other guy is Stellan.

You can use http://webchat.freenode.net/?nick=fdgj.&channels=fdgj if you don't have an IRC client installed. Joan has a speechbot so he can hear what you say in channel.

edit: btw if you hear stuff from the speechbot that you don't see in channel, it's because he's also listening to #geekstreams.

The other guy working there is Stellan - I should have mentioned him.

It doesn't matter if it takes 1 or 3 missiles to deliver 3 warheads.

How difficult is that to understand?

watzy · 1 day

"The total number of deployed warheads, however, could exceed the 1,550 limit by a few hundred because per bomber only one warhead is counted regardless of how many it actually carries."

You were saying?

nothing to launch them with

Removing 4 of the 24 missile tubes in each of the 14 US nuclear submarines does not leave them with "nothing".

watzy · 1 day

Because the treaty only reduces deployed warheads by 10%.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/START_treaty_%282010%29

It's also full of holes, which allows 4 warheads to be counted as 1, and does not decrease warehoused warheads.

It's nothing to crow about.
