The permits are bright green, and you are asked to put them in a front facing window, or on a door, so the inspector can...wait for it...see it from the road. Tell me how an inspector can tell the quality of my roof from the road after the work is done and I am long gone? Permits, in most residential cases, are simply another way to make the local government a few bucks.

Yup, That is me and yes I also have had those permits in my window. Never really understood why personally cause you are right they don't tend to inspect them. I KNOW my dad had a new basement dug out under his house and had issues with the quality or work done. They came out and inspected at his request and agreed it was a bad job and pulled the license of that contractor.

In that case the job was supposed to have been inspected at various points of the job and the contractor forged the signature of the inspector. So SOME jobs get inspected and some don't. That is poor implementation... not necessarily poor idea.

You all are unfortunate...we have bald eagles by the shit-load down here in FL. My mom has a house on a river here in N FL and we see them all the time. They are hilarious, they suck at catching fish and are clumsy.

We should have chosen the turkey as a national symbol.

So we need laws to force people to be decent to each other? Thats complete bullshit and you know it glitch. Thats the exact pc bullshit im talking about. We dont have to like each, we dont have to interact with each, and if someone thinks someone else is an asshole then it should be legal to treat them like the asshole they are. We have gone way past what laws should even be able to restrict in a "free" society. So basically we started by telling england to go fuck themselves and now we cant call a "disabled" person a retard? Thats just stupid.

The punch the bald eagle in the dick part is funny as hell. lol

Society gets to make sure the idiot doesn't endanger the rest of us.

The rights of the many suffer from the actions of the few...
People are going to be dumb with anything. Who remebers the woman who killed herself drinking water to win a Wii?
How many people die from drunk driving or how many domestic battery because of alcohol, yet it's still legal. Most people don't drink themselves stupid, but idiots still do and kill others with them. Why am I not protected from that?

Around here people have bonfires or burn their trash all the time and it is perfectly legal... outside of city limits. When folks live near others their right to not have an idiot burn down their house out weighs your right to roast marshmallows.

Please point out the city around me.

This is AZ, one cigarette can and has tourched miles, all it takes is an idiot, why isn't smoking illegal?

Dumb people are going to do stuff and likely get themselves killed, thining the heard. People are on a campaign to prove evolution wrong.

And the only thing I have to add to permits, is what the hell was BP doing with a permit?

OSHA statistics show BP ran up 760 "egregious, willful" safety violations, while Sunoco and Conoco-Phillips each had eight, Citgo had two and Exxon had one comparable citation.

you don't need safety when you pump god's blood.

**SovietDooM** · 03-15-11, 05:37 PM

It's only god's blood what's the worst that could happen...

What you working on Albert? Nothing, just working on splitting an atom. Isn't that dangerous? Psh what's the worst that could happen? Good point.
