If 100 people needs to die to save 100000 people..
The greater good seems like a practical rather than moral consideration to me. You need to put an individual in a position to compromise his belief system in order to have a moral dilemma.

What if the 100000 were deranged killer clowns, lawyers, or mimes.

Senior citizen fights off mountain lion
Why do cougars attack groups of humans, are they stupid ?, I mean they are smallish cats and predators usually don't try to take on anything that can fight back, if a predator gets injured it can't hunt and will likely die. Perhaps it sensed they were weak somehow, or felt its territory threatened.

Hey Finns!
"If anything, your example of a Zulu farmer from before WW2 is more misleading than helpful" The case and settlement are very recent, haven't you been paying attention ?

Hey Finns!
'Even disregarding' is a popular way to sneak an inappropriate agrument in the backdoor at reduced effectiveness, thats what you were indulging in. Taking 30 or even 50% of the settlement as payment is hardly pro bono, and thats the usual arrangement in longshot lawsuits against big business on behalf of people who can't pay. The case was in legal limbo for 6 years, and as stated the settlement came about only because it was discovered and made a cause de jour by rolling stone magazine. The stones are wealthier than most small countries, I don't think they make a particularly good example, although i'm sure there are more cases of rags to copyright infringement riches out there. The odds however, are always stacked in favor of the party with the most money to spend on lawyers.

Hey Finns!
You said, 'even disregarding' now what was the reason for writing that if not to suggest that such a thing were possible. What makes a good cash cow for a lawfirm and actually getting whats rigthfully yours don't coincide that often. "The settlement came about as a result of pressure from various sectors of society, both in South Africa and overseas," family lawyer Hanro Friedrich told Business Day at the time of the settlement.

Hey Finns!
I higly doubt that law firms spend much time throwing pro bono work to empoverished Finnish coders. It only took 70 years, but it looks like the heirs are finally getting something out of a lawsuit, and more importantly, the effect of public outrage. http://www.southafrica.info/ess_info/sa_gl...bube-210206.htm

Hey Finns!
If you have a music copyright it doesen't matter if you stole it from someone else. If that someone doesen't have the funds to tangle with the label's legal department there ain't a thing they can do.

Rome
I thought it was pretty damn good, unfortunately even the best TV series become tedious after a while. It's inescapable. Telling a story in one week increments of 40 minuites for years just lends to dramatical self destruction.

Hungarian pop songs and mongol steppe warriors. It's a winner.

What do you people think about this?
You are mincing words, of course stunting a persons's growth with a number of different treatments is a change. just listen to yourself.

What do you people think about this?
So keeping the body from it's natural growth cycle is not a change ? mkay. It's the best available legal choice in a difficult situation, but the main problem here is that all this is being done for the benifit of the parents. Who is considering what kind of life being entombed in a doll's body is going to be. Is she aware enough to suffer from it. If she isen't aware at all, then really whats the point of living.

I love shooting
I'm kinda relived that they don't let every retard out there have a gun where I live, nice piece by the way, but I would prefer something a bit more accurate and less goofy.

What do you people think about this?
"*Edited by Walsingham for gratuitous callousness*" She can't move, she is severely retarded and is forced to live out her life as some kind of freakish ornament on her parents bed with no real experience of what it means to be human, but human life is ' sacred', so sacred that we would rather have a lifetime of non-life or a lifetime of suffering than end it.

Joystick
It's so sad how so few games are made with joysticks in mind :C Nothing beats a joystick for arcade mele/ ****pit action. Also, the filter is a joke.
