Illegal aliens should be deported and they should not be called "undocumented", they should be called illegal. If we deport every single one of them we are still far tamer than other countries. If they want to come here, they should do so legally. The fact of the matter is that illegal immigration makes legal immigration all that much harder and my family has had a lot of pain because of that. Legal immigrants, unless they are ignorant of the reality, do not support illegal immigration.

Stats show overclocking a computer tends to cause problems. Yes, statistics are from Microsoft. But, I'd think they have the ability to collect lots of stats like this better than anyone else.

No article yesterday due to chaos in real life and politics. Hence, I will not bring up the big matter, but something close.:

You don't need a petition, what you need is a gang of people with baseball bats, to make sure the staff there think long and hard about returning to work there when they get out of hospital.
Wtf is is this? Guantanamo bay for special needs children? The people who organised this should be looking at a life term.

Thats easily said. Lots of people do stuff at work they are against, but unlike me, few dare to step up to their employer and call them out on their failures. Which isnt much of a surprise either as most people have a family to take care of and lack a fat bankaccount. So you do what you are being told, even if you cant sleep at night because of it.
Perhaps you'll look for an other job, but you still wont quit your current job untill you found the next, unless you are an idiot of wealthy.

Anyone prepared to electrocute children for a living, should not be getting the opportunity to be employed, unless its a part of their prison rehabilitation program.
If the kids weren't "special needs" the people doing this would be arrested, charged and locked up straight away. Has legislation been passed removing their human rights?

In Guantanamo bay, you get a vacation compared to this. Well, you really get a vacation in most comparisons... But this, wtf.

It is a blatant breach of the International Law of Human Rights. I believe the US Gov did sign up to that one.
Article 5. = No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.

Petitions should not be required to have the law enforced.

A petition always helps though.

With the stuff they've done, I doubt they'd last long in a regular prison...

True, but the US government holds itself above law.

You may have noticed what happened after G 'dubya was found to be a war criminal, nothing.

Well as far as I could gather from the video, the "authorities" seem rather keen that this Law is not enforced in this case, presumably because ultimately it is they who would be facing the charges. International Court is probably the only way.
