Winston Churchhill on why the U.S. should have stayed OUT of World War I
"I am so %^&*^ sick of this cult of Ron Paul. The Paulites. What is with these %^&*^ people? Why are there so many of them?" YouTube rant by "TheAmazingAtheist"
"We as a country have lost faith and confidence in freedom." -- Ron Paul
"It can be a challenge to follow the pronouncements of President Trump, as he often seems to change his position on any number of items from week to week, or from day to day, or even from minute to minute." -- Ron Paul
Great Scott!!
In response, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission has proposed an $8,500 fine against the university.
I'll bet people have gotten worse than that for a gram of weed..

"Each of us must choose which course of action we should take: education, conventional political action, or even peaceful civil disobedience to bring about necessary changes. But let it not be said that we did nothing." - Ron Paul
"Paul said "the wave of the future" is a coalition of anti-authoritarian progressive Democrats and libertarian Republicans in Congress opposed to domestic surveillance, opposed to starting new wars and in favor of ending the so-called War on Drugs."
Well, dirty bomb ? With just one gram even that may be overstated, a dirty firecracker may be a more appropriate name...An NRC spokesperson, Victor Dricks, said that the amount of material was too small to create a nuclear weapon, but said it could be used in a dirty bomb meant to spread the radioactive substance.
It's not the radioactivity per se that is causing the hazards. Pu-239 is an alpha emitter, which means, a piece of paper will fully protect you against the radiation that comes from it. However, inhalation of Pu-239 is very dangerous as these alpha particles would form, be absorbed by longue tissue and change your DNA. Ingestion through the digestive tract, less dangerous as most of it will come out the other end.
In any case, a gram is not enough to be afraid about, unless someone just spilled it on your desk.

Funny.. If it were Pu-238 (which it's most likely not), it would likely have been purchased FROM the Russians.
(wikipedia)Since 1993, all of the Pu-238 used in American spacecraft has been purchased from Russia. In total, 16.5 kilograms (36 lb) has been purchased but Russia is no longer producing Pu-238 and their own supply is reportedly running low.[17][18]
P.S. IMO Pu-238 is the most interesting radioactive isotope... Just look at the Voyager probes, still under partial power, after 40+ years..

So it was scheduled to be destroyed but their just isn't any confirmation that it actually was destroyed.
There are no crimes against people.
There are only crimes against the state.
And the state will never, ever choose to hold accountable its agents, because a thing can not commit a crime against itself.
A gram of Plutonium... what, is that about the size of a pea?

"They sell us the president the same way they sell us our clothes and our cars. They sell us every thing from youth to religion the same time they sell us our wars. I want to know who the men in the shadows are. I want to hear somebody asking them why. They can be counted on to tell us who our enemies are but theyre never the ones to fight or to die." - Jackson Browne Lives In The Balance
Somewhere in Iowa some redneck is building a Nuclear Truck.
Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.
