If he raped women, cut off his member and put it in his rear areas and see how he likes it there when he doesn't ask for it.

56. Should NASA work harder to accomplish goals such as making first contact, building space ships, and colonizing other planets?

No, just because the U.S is the most 'advanced' nation on the planet, does not mean it's political system is without flaws.
