    Ex-Post-Facto laws are illegal sorry. But if it was legal yesterday when I did it, you can't arrest me today now that it's not.

    Very wrong. for team sports maybe, but try and claim running is a game.

    Your logic is broken

    No all sports are not games.
    and not all sports are games.

    A marathon is not a game but it is most certainly a sport.

    Monopoly is a game but in no way is it a sport.

    Except you have no right of revolution. That is what I find so ridiculous about 2nd amendment fanatics (I am not saying all gun owners are 2nd amendment fanatics) who believe the 2nd amendment gives them a right to overthrow the government. Remember the minute you open fire on an authority figure all your rights basically disappear regardless of what the constitution says.

    For once? I thought the installation of the CCTV's in the UK was when they forged far ahead of the US in their not so slow slide to a police state.

    No, but they were all traitors to England at the time. Which would most likely have been a prerequisite for DNA testing either before or after their hanging.

    Umm, my two year court case to get my prints expunged from a false arrest in 1988.

    I attempted that in my teens after getting arrested for something someone else did. Charges were dropped but after 2 years of fighting the state in court I could not get my fingerprints expunged.

    What the hell is an esport?

    You mean gaming? Because gaming is not a sport no matter how you try and word it.

    No it's not moron.
    You have 2 Continents North America and South America. There is no continent named America. When some one refers to America they are always referring to the USA.

    USian is not a correct term and not one used by Americans.

    You can support your candidate of choice by voting for them. I personally think all contributions should be banned and campaigns run via public funds. That way all candidates have a level playing field where their policies differentiate them.

  24. Re:Competition is often complex. on Bill Gates Opens Up About Steve Jobs · · Score: 0

    I don't think anyone on the left or in the administration has used the term the "Great Unifier (or Uniter)" ever. So it seems to be a pseudo derogatory term created by the right as a play on their "Great Disaster (wait that should be Decider)".

    I don;t think it's Obama's fault for the division. Heck the dividers came out in force before he even started his first term. So before you blame the Pres for the division let's actually take a look at who is doing the dividing.

    Because Im an American, Sorry if that offends you, But hey Born and raised here and it's my right, no my duty to try and fix our broken country. Quit acting like the Constitution is perfectt. The guys who wrote knew it was flawed, that's why they implemented ways to amend it. They just expected a lot more amendments. We stopped updating our governing document and thus we're stuck with an archaic system that hasn't kept up with the times.

    Guns and Cities are a bad mix. You don't want to stick a bunch of people in close quarters then give them guns. It's just not a smart idea. I have no problem with hunting or shooting crap in the country for fun, but we have to allow common sense regulation to keep them from becoming a problem in areas of dense population.
