zeffur: re: "chron: Blue collar workers have a way lower life expectancy to others in society"

What?? "...the average life expectancy of a blue collar female is 86.9 years, or half a year lower than for white collar females. Male blue collar workers live on average to age 84.1, compared to 84.7 for white collar men."

My personal belief is that the planet population should be based on how well humanity can provide a high quality of life. That should be based on exploration expectations, resource depletion rates, renewable resource replacement rates, technological innovations, etc.

I would support legal birth permits & penalties for violators. I would not support any efforts to murder anyone (including viable fetuses).

What is the current optimal earth population? Idk--but, it shouldn't be that difficult for each country to compute based on their own resources & abilities to extract such resources...

chronology: Zef, just checked most recent data, seems you are right. You don't have the huge gap in life expectancy in the United States that people have in Britain. But we are going off topic again. We are discussing robot's.

TheCovenant: The good thing about being a robot is you are allowed to shit and piss where ever and when ever you want.

Big one to Missouri, are you tracking me?
Uhhh negative.
May day May day, theyre hooking me up, theyre hooking me up.

Before the advent of modern truth serums, organisations like the IRA and Hells Angels prospered in England and Quebec.

Not because of Drugs, guns or fear,
but because enough people simply turned their head away and said,
sorry Constable, I cant help you.

Maybe with a new technological devellopment to obsolete modern truth serums, their day will come, and good will Triumph again.

TheCovenant: Some notes about robots.
Robots are only allowed to fuck once and even then they have to spread their seed on the ground. When one valve opens another one closes. It's like fucking with someone else's dick.

Some notes about security guards and police with loaded Glock 17 pistols:

In addition to the intestinator (the fortress ) and having a sickle in your penis, there is a choke valve in the larynx. Any place of business with wYfy can also rag doll you by hitting the kill switch by cutting off the blood flow to the brain.

Not bad for a free man with two speeding tickets on his record.

Anyways my psychiatrist thinks I could benefit with more time in the hospital under psychiatric observation.

TheCovenant: A note about truth serums. I have never read a case law where they explicitly mentioned truth serums. But then again I have never come across legislation that says you can't use them.

My history professor simply said that the courts dislike testimony coming from torture because it can sometimes be unreliable. Good torture requires an experienced policeman. Sleep deprivation, high levels of body discomfort, drugged food, poison and asphyxiation. My father told me a little about his experiences with torture when he was a teenager in the resistance. Nowadays police use methods that don't leave physical evidence for court and trial purposes.

Wow not only am I living next to the Chief of Police of Amsterdam, I am living next to the Holland desk.Hang in there Covenant. This one in the corner...
Pee s, his double is uncircumcised . The other is a prick.

Choose the neighbor before the house.
Who has no past, has no future.
Blood can never turn into water.
Those who dig an evil hole will fall into it.
Blow in a torn bagpipe.
If you have no shame, do whatever you please.
Do not drink poison to quench a thirst.
Nock on the door before entering.(hello the house)
The eye of a master does more work than both his hands.
If speech is silver, silence is golden.
We walk by the walls and ask God for shelter.
If you sit at a crossroads, you will get sick.
Far from grave, no praying.
People with people, and the cat ( I said,please ) with the souls.
