The tests, released Wednesday, show how well vehicles stack up against others of similar size and weight. The institute noted that the front-end test scores can't be compared across weight classes, meaning a small car that earns a good rating isn't considered safer than a large car that did not earn the highest rating.

So they compared it to a shopping cart?

The drinking age should be lowered to 19.

 

DUI laws should be stricter.

 

Child molesters should be jailed immediately in a general population prison (people who harm children are very unpopular in prison).

 

There is a such thing as reverse discrimination. It happens a lot.

 

Ghosts exist but only interact with those that believe.

 

Marijuana should be legalized.

 

Evolution is a much better answer than creationism.

 

 

Marijuana legalization is unpopular?

Definitely not, there are millions and millions of stoners calling for that. It's as popular as it's ever been.

Not just stoners.

We should use a completely publicly financed campaign system.

Yeah I 1 million percent support marijuana legalization (and then tax the s*** out of it) but I can possibly count on two hands the number of times I've smoked in my life.

I don't recall saying that...

I cant believe I forgot this one... not sure how "unpopular" it is:

I believe the United States should be completely converted over to the metric system by 2015.

Why the arbitrary date?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 10:04 AM)

In Metric time, that's exactly 10^5 units from now.

I believe it should be illegal for girls under the legal age of consent to wear pants/shorts/skirts shorter than top of the knee cap length.

 

Background: Many of you know i work for a church and last we we held our Vacation bible School. I cant tell you how many 12-14 year old girls were walking around in shorts that if they were any shorter would have been thongs.

 

Oh, and ban flip-flops from the earth.

You need to set a hard date, or it will never happen. We tried it once before.

Never gonna happen.

Almost happened once, but Reagan chickened out:

The study recommended that the United States implement a carefully planned transition to predominant use of the metric system over a ten-year period. Congress passed the Metric Conversion Act of 1975 "to coordinate and plan the increasing use of the metric system in the United States". The Act, however, did not require a ten-year conversion period. A process of voluntary conversion was initiated, and the U.S. Metric Board (USMB) was established for planning, coordination, and public education. The public education component led to much public awareness of the metric system, although the public response included plenty of resistance, apathy, and even ridicule (for example, the Saturday Night Live decabet sketch).[4] In 1981, the Board reported to Congress that it lacked the clear Congressional mandate necessary to bring about national conversion. Given this apparent ineffectiveness, and in a Reagan effort to reduce federal spending, the Metric Board was disbanded in fall 1982.

We don't spend nearly enough on science/ science education. The scientific illiteracy in this country is staggering.

We used to be proud of the fact that we were way ahead in math and science. Now it's embarrassing. I think part of the reason is that being dumb, or idolizing stupidity/non-intellectual activities is hard-wired into our culture now. It's cool to be dumb. Being the "smart kid" doesn't have any social benefit until later on in high school.
