"Guns dont kill people, people kill people" Take away the guns, then you'll just get makeshift bombs or knifes used by the psychopaths. Instead of gun control, enforce parenting control*. This (ideally) would raise children to an acceptable social level. *Sounds extreme, I know. But it doesn't have...

I'm pretty sure the shooter didn't use 'bad parenting' to kill people.

The argument that it shouldn't be politicized is deceptive and dishonest. [...]the air was thick with calls to avoid “politicizing” the tragedy. That is code, essentially, for “don’t talk about reforming our gun control laws.” Let’s be clear: That is a form of politicization. When political actors c...

In that PUA thread you mentioned Iran's nuclear development as a threat. That's because it is - that doesn't mean I'm suggesting immediate military intervention as you seemed to imply. Iran isn't really a threat to anyone as of now, and the only real reason it's perceived as one is because of the S...

Far Cry 3 is pretty awesome. Suffers from a bit of repetitiveness, but not to the same order as Far Cry 2 - plus I appreciate the the programmers bothered to make friendly AI this time around. Shame I can only play it at 1920x1080 on medium settings. I'd love to play it at full resolution with all t...

I listed over half the developed world - I wouldn't call that cherry picking. Subjective? Yes, very. The countries/continents (and yes, I am perfectly aware Europe is a continent and not a country - I do live in it) I listed - Canada, Europe and Australia are pretty similar to the US in terms of soc...

Regarding police, cars and government, please provide a list of useful services that "guns" perform, in addition to their whole purpose of drilling holes in living things. Do they transport millions of people from A to B? Do they patrol the streets, perform routine traffic duties, or eat doughnuts?...

Given the level of gun violence in the US..er, care to explain why it's wrong or irrational? Seems to me that most intelligent people should be afraid of guns if people keep getting shot by them. Should people be afraid by cars, police, and the government itself then, since they cause deaths in the...

What we call "common sense" is usually completely wrong or irrational, so it sounds about right. Given the level of gun violence in the US..er, care to explain why it's wrong or irrational? Seems to me that most intelligent people should be afraid of guns if people keep getting shot by them. Jamaic...

If by this you mean that the hoplophobes will activate their shoulder chips once again, then I agree. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=293J6VWRl5I No, by that I mean that sensible debate on the issue is absolutely impossible in the US because any attempt to control gun access - even simple stuff - is...

And this will lead to a sensible, level-headed debate between the political parties about gun control in the US.

Just kidding.

...but then you presumably run into the same issue you had with the assault gun, where the "barrel" isn't pointing correctly toward the centre of the screen. Also, it'd be a reasonable amount of coding, and horrible context-specific coding at that. :-/ Since most people are going to be playing at 1...

That's awesome Nice to see my mod getting some lovin' - especially since I never thought New Vision would get voted into the Top 100. I mean, there's less competition now I guess; but it's still up there with the likes of Black Mesa which is cool

I'm with Jonas. I recall playing this and thinking it was good (for Unity), but I'm not sure about a full game. Plus..yeah: Look at the Kickstarter they ran - they were asking for $600,000! That's insane! This for a team of people nobody has ever heard o Apparently they have "some of the best talent...

Interesting..aside from the odd racist newsletter, I figured he was reasonably consistent - at least using most politicians as a reference point. I wasn't aware of the We the People Act, but having just read the Same-Sex Marriage section on his Wikipedia page...I see what you mean. I stand corrected.
