Early in the 21st century, the Tyrell corporation advanced Robot evolution into the Nexus phase - a being virtually identical to a human - known as a Replicant. The NEXUS 6 Replicants were superior in strength and agility, and at least equal in intelligence, to the genetic engineers who created them. Replicants were used off-world as slave labor, in the hazardous exploration and colonization of other planets. After a bloody mutiny by a NEXUS 6 combat team in an off-world colony, Replicants were declared illegal on earth - under penalty of death. Special police squads - BLADE RUNNER UNITS - had orders to shoot to kill, upon detection, any trespassing Replicant. This was not called execution. It was called retirement.

I'm a big fan about how her statement mentions supporting military survivors, but the word "survivor(s)" appears only five times in the statement: Once to say she'll support them, once to say she supported a bill to allow a survivor to break a lease within a year of a military spouse's death (which would have been nice when my wife died), and then three times in reference to sexual assault.

poo poo, I missed that in my keyword search. Serves me right for being lazy. quote:Lastly, I support eliminating the so-called “Widow’s Tax” and efforts to ensure that all families of veterans who died or became totally disabled from a service-connected condition receive the Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC) benefits that they are entitled to. Got the issue completely backwards, though. McNally fucked around with this message at 20:48 on Nov 5, 2019 |

Defenestrategy posted:Out of curiosity, wouldn't it be a conflict of interest for a presidential appointed judge to rule on a case in which that president is a party? Or is there something else? The theory is that since the appointment is for life the judge in question doesn't need to feel beholden to the president.

Acebuckeye13 posted:Something else that has occurred to me is that if the windows are intended to be unpenetrable, then if you're ever in a situation where the door can't open and you need to get out or get someone out of the car (i.e you accidentally drove into a lake), then they're effective trapped in the car and potentially doomed to a terrible death by drowning Or, hypothetically, maybe the batteries somehow catch fire, meaning the vehicle has lost all power and you can't open the door because you're at an angle and each vehicle panel weighs 60 loving pounds. I'm not joking.
