  1. Those are all good points but if you're living in a society that corrupt then they don't need your DNA to "get you". Also, the pattern of your DNA existing in a database does not provide anyone with the actual physical DNA.@ Sharp_one I can understand your concern but dont confuse corruption and incompetence that exists within the police force where you live as a global standard. This wont be used to frame innocent people I can assure you I side with Sharp. Brucie, it doesn't even have to never illegal or attached to corruption if people buy your data. Remember the NSA spying on you? Remember that law that your browsing history can now be bought and sold? Same thing, Brucie. Would you be comfortable with that? That people can essentially buy who you are? "This won't be used to frame innocents"... how can you possibly ensure that? Bennie the NSA is our friend, they are an invaluable instrument in the war against extremism There decisions need to be accepted in the interests of the greater good, You did not answer the question. You did also not give valid reasons as too why we should accept the NSA in its current state, aside from "they're good because they told me they were". Bennie there are people in this world who have worked for decades in government security departments who you must admit will know more than you about real threats countries face. This is based on accurate and quantifiable intelligence and information gathering using numerous sources and mediums You need to learn to trust these people, they have your best interests in mind

  3. Welcome back Where have you been you ?

  5. What are you talking about? The police show up to a crime scene, collect physical evidence (including your DNA), and run it through the database. BINGO! Ben No.3 left a hair behind whilst robbing the German equivalent to 7-11 (probably called 8-25 cause they work so hard) and they can roll right up to his residence and slap the cuffs on. Problem is in partial DNA matches which can cause unfounded suspicions, which can in bad day lead in imprisonment of wrong person because they can't afford to defend themselves. There may be the odd 2-4 % mistakes but they can build in additional proof checking and analysis of the DNA to reduce false positives?
  6. Whats wrong with that? Surely if you not breaking the law it wouldn't be a problem ?
  7. This is perfectly understandable considering the terrorist threat Germany faces, you should be grateful Bennie....you young people nowadays, very ungrateful for everything you have
  8. Would you say it has got to be one of the worst demonstrations of ignorance? It does demonstrate ignorance but thinking 9/11 wasn't committed by Al-Qaeda is egregiously more ignorant
  9. I am watching this fire in London live and the one Sky News reporter interviews one of the residents who tells the reporter " I watched a women jump from about the 12th floor to avoid death by fire " The reporter says " was she injured after jumping " ........seriously? What kind of question is that...what answer was the reporter expecting " no she was fine after jumping from the 12th floor "
  10. It has got to be one of the worst demonstrations of ignorance to still suggest in 2017 that 9/11 is a conspiracy theory committed by the USA to itself
  11. Brilliant, this post made me laugh
  12. I am forcing myself to keep watching the new season of Twin Peaks, its really annoying because I dont understand half of what is going on and who some of the people are suppose to be , for example who is Duggie and why is he so stupid ? But I am loving the new seasons of Magicians, Blue Bloods, Outcast and new series like American Gods, the Son, Gomorrah and Chicago PD so Im spoilt for choice
  13. I love sushi, I love those sushi conveyor belt restaurants where you can sit and munch on different sushi designs as they go past you on that moving "table " at the bar
  14. Hurlshot are you cracking a joke about immigrants .....you bad boy, you normally never joke about people less fortunate than you
  15. Browse wikipedia, it'll be more useful
  16. According to the link " The Czech Republic has so far only relocated 12 people last year and none since. There is a big scope for the Czech Republic to do more," he said. The Czech Republic had committed to take in 2,691 " That seems like an appallingly low number ? Surely your government can do more or at least move quicker....2.700 is not a high number. Relocate them and then pull out so you have at least committed to the original objective...that way you avoid much of the criticism
  17. oh yes, enjoy helping solve the massive Puerto Rico debt crisis https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-12-20/puerto-rico-ten-year-deficit-forecast-raised-to-68-billion
  18. Sup "waves " Welcome to Off Topic... the most incisive, erudite and insightful place on the Obsidian forums
  19. I had a good and relaxing weekend, no unnecessary socialising or partying at all I worked last night and cooked lunch for some friends yesterday but apart from that I have been playing Dishonored 2 and catching up on watching some TV series I haven't watched on PVR
  20. I have a question, why is what he said wrong? Also the quote was taken from a religious piece to a religious school.To a Christian, every other religion is wrong and inadequate. To a Muslim, every other religion is wrong and inadequate. Bernie condemning a person's belief to be Islamic phobic.....when again it's the very same damn shoe if someone is Muslim and thought about every other religion. It raises questions around his objectivity and ability to do his job in a way that isn't biasedWho the man in question or Bernie by making Christianity inferior to Islam? Because that can be said of both, imho moreso on Bernie because of WHERE it was said. One was said in a religious piece to a religious school and one was said at a govt hearing. Dont get me wrong, I dont dislike Sanders but Im not a big fan of his and I have always made that clear. He makes comments that are nothing short of left wing hubris, like when he wanted to break up all the US investment banks. That would have seriously negatively impacted the global economy He is also a populist like Trump and some of his comments are unhelpful to achieve a more harmonious and tolerant society But I was talking about the man
  21. I cant believe you agreed to that, you a much better person than me

  24. algroth how is your knowledge of economics and financial instruments and how they pertain to your country ? I want to ask you something about the Argentine bond crisis but I dont want to ask you something that you may not be familiar with? I have some... But my father is a former secretary of treasury and economy vice-minister so I'm sure any questions I wouldn't be able to answer, I could just ask him. Your father is probably the best person to answer this actually I will keep it simple, ask him if all the outdated bonds have been paid back. Basically most of Argentina's creditors exchanged their defaulted debt for new securities in two restructurings that took place in 2005 and 2010....are these debts paid back?
