    There should be a law.

    No, there should specifically not be a law. But we should bring back duels. If not duels, then specifically go easy on anybody that chooses to beat the crap out of these people.

    Performance wise, you can probably compare that to the entry level MacBook.

    That's probably good enough for her needs.

    No, that is something different. I know it is in the works, but that's all.

    My mom was a social worker for three decades. When things were bad enough that you had to remove someone from a home right damn now, they called my mom and an officer.

    Even with a police escort, she had a ton of experiences bad enough that they made things interesting for me at home.

    I don't think I have to ask her how good of an idea she thinks this is.
