  1. Re:Well-planned attack by Al Qaeda on One Boston Marathon Bomb Suspect Dead, Other At Large After Shootout With Police · · Score: 1

    I honestly think a bullet to the head, dump the body, and forget about him would be the best thing to do.

  2. Re:The difference between MA and NH. on One Boston Marathon Bomb Suspect Dead, Other At Large After Shootout With Police · · Score: 0

    In my county the last murder was in 2010. The one before that was 1987. I think we're doing something right.

  3. Re:Please help me find the tech angle on this. on One Boston Marathon Bomb Suspect Dead, Other At Large After Shootout With Police · · Score: 1

    You don't understand. The media will be on this for MONTHS. Or at least until another mass murder or terrorist attack happens. It won't surprise me if there's a movie on it. Everyone wants a piece on this tragedy. 20/20 will have a special on this tonight. CNN will milk the SHIT outta this. Its what happens here. I can't stand it. I go to 7/11 in the morning to get my coffee and its whats on the news on both screens. Head to the bar after work for a beer and its there too. I haven't owned TV in five years because of the media. Our entire country is focused on bad news. It sucks.

  4. The difference between MA and NH. on One Boston Marathon Bomb Suspect Dead, Other At Large After Shootout With Police · · Score: 0

    I grew up in southie. Moved to upstate NH years ago. Its crazy how different things are up here. If there was a manhunt looking for someone with bombs and guns I can assure you we wouldn't be taking cover in our homes. We'd be on our porches ready. The news stories would be completely different I assure you.

    Oh, I'm aware. Doesn't mean I was/am unable to play DOS games. =]

  12. Re:Don't go to the TSA blog!!!!1 on TSA Log Shows Passengers Say the Darndest Things · · Score: 1

    My thinking behind this is that the TSA hired someone to put the guns there, intentionally get caught by the scanners, and make headlines about the find to make it seem like the TSA is doing some good.

  13. Not exactly. on Bitcoin Exchange Mt.Gox Suffers Serious Attack, Instawallet Offline · · Score: 1

    I'm sure that's what Congress spends on office supplies for a year.

  15. Where do they get my number in the first place? on FTC Awards $50k In Prizes To Cut Off Exasperating Robocalls · · Score: 1

    I'm curious as to where they get my number in the first place. Are the calls just randomly generated to call any ten digits? Or does some company I'm affiliated with sell my info?

    Either way, phone rings there's only two people I answer to. The rest goes to VM. I for one wish there wasn't such a need for a phone.

  20. Re:The Stupidity, It Hurts! on Video Game Industry Starting To Feel Heat On Gun Massacres · · Score: 1

    The Second Amendment is a stupid anachronism. It needs gutting.

    There is no longer a need for a militia - the USA has a nice big standing army with which to defend itself and it has much better weapons than assault rifles, like aircraft, helicopters and tanks. And if you want to claim you need guns to defend yourself against the US Government, well it has a nice big standing army with aircraft, helicopters and tanks. How long do you think the militia with the weapons it is legally allowed to own is going to last against the US military?

    "He who would trade liberty for some temporary security, deserves neither liberty nor security."

    Get the fuck out of my country. Someone threatens my property, my life, or my loved ones I will do whatever it takes to be sure all is safe. You want the government to watch out for you? Call 911 and see what the response time is. I can assure you, when they arrive they'll be taking pictures of you and your dead family. I'll dial 911 AFTER I've taken care of the situation.

    Perhaps we should spend, oh, five times as much as the next ten countries and work on our 17 trillion dollars in debt. I mean, my flag flies proud on my porch and I'm happy to be an American. But what the fuck man.

  23. Battlefield 3 on EA CEO's Departure Might Be Good For the Company · · Score: 1

    Been playing Battlefield 3 every night for the past month or so. Its alright I guess. Setting up Origin sucked. But once running it was fine. meh

  24. Re:Possible? on Possible Chemical Weapons Use In Syria · · Score: 2

    Just because we can't fix all the problems at once, doesn't mean we shouldn't try and help with the ones we can.

    I think a good place to start is the problems that exist within our own borders. Once we got those figured out, King O and start working on policing the world.
