    And all those that oppose these measures and rant about 'lost liberties' only give ammunition to terrorists and scare hard-working Americans

    Well if the page did that it is better than most web pages i've seen.

  10. Re:Better security on planes on More Links And Reports On Terrorist Attacks · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I heard the knives and box cutters report too. But something doesn't make sense. You can fight a guy with knife. Hell a large group of people (remember the two planes were a 757 and 767) could tackle a small group of people with knives. What the hell happened?

    if MS was broken up (fat chance) the current user base would just up and disappear.

    This what I have been saying all along. If MS broke up then one of the companys would still own windows and still have a 'monopoly' on OS systems. Nothing gained.

    Now i live in Connecticut and before i went to school i heard this story and had a short argument with my mom about this, almost missing my bus. My thing was they were looking for a scapegoat.

    "We shouldn't be singling out one kind of video game, " said Rep. William Hamzy (R- Plymouth). He introduced an amendment to include all violent video games, which was defeated.

    Oh man. Let's cut everything!! Let's put the arcades out of business! Fools. Anyone who is sick enough to go out and start shooting people is going to snap whether there are violent games or not. What games did Adolf Hitler play? What did he listen to?

    Rep. Ronald San Angelo (R-Naugatuck) said the issue of youth violence needed more study and proposed a task force to examine the effects of violent movies and home video games on youth. That amendment was also defeated. "I don't think the underlying bill is going to do anything," San Angelo said.

    These people have waaaaaay too much time

    Besides those are the games I'm best at in arcades.
