This whole debacle only requires 2 things to fix it. #1, a paper trail that's checked against the vote tallies. #2 Driver's license or preferably some sort of free voting id where they vet your citizenship. The money from the voting id's would come out of the various parties political funds based on a percentage of how big they are.
Of course, the democrats as a whole would NEVER approve of the voting id idea, even though said id's would be illegal by law to use for anything else, and on both sides of the fence
Bwahahahahahhahahhahhaha. Um no, take a film history class, ever since the 1930's or so, it has been purely a money-making business, there was some experimentation in 60's I think, but by and large it's always been about making money. The few maverick films, like Citizen Kane, were basically finagled past the film execs which didn't happen often.
(i.e., delaying paying the cost of the war to future generations)
Heh heh hahahahahhahhaahaha. Ahh, that's fucking hilarious. Compared to the hidden costs of SocSec, Medicare, Medicaid, Bush's perscription drug plan, and federal pensions, the cost of the war is chump change.
Given that the most popular rpg like you're talking about in the rpg genre is D&D, the only way he would get a hit is if he got a critical. Think of the amount of damage relative to your hp as a description of the wound. if you have 6 hp and the dmg is 5, then it is a major wound, say a deep gash in the chest or a wound to the neck. But if you have 50 hp then it is a relatively shallow gash or just a wound to a non-vital part.
Except then one could go get the security disabled. For that matter, in any space faring society weapons manufacturing control is going to be sparse at best and most weapons wouldn't have such security.
As far as I have seen, this has nothing to do with the actual classes, rather, for some reason horde players seem to be able to coordinate strategy much much better than most alliance pricks. I've seen plenty of pvp games where the alliance would out-kill the horde by far, but because the horde cooperated and went for the flag as a team, they still won.
Given that the only two countries in the world that mandate gun ownership have some of the loswest crime rates in the world, not counting suicide bombings, i would say yes there is. There is also Kennesaw, Georgia.
As successful suicide rates are not dictated at all by gun availability it's a bullshit point. There is not one valid and reliable study out there that proves it. Not to mention that most gun deaths in the US are, you guessed it, 9 mil. Pretty small caliber. Not to mention that population density is much much less in Australia than it is in the US, which is a major contributing factor, as well as the fact that australia does not have a high profile urban population with a much higher homicide and victim rate than any other portions of the population like the US.
This is because your average police officer trains maybe twice a year. Your average CCW civvie goes to the range once a month, more probably once a week.
The term is negligent discharge. There is no such thing as an accidental discharge. If the gun went off, it's because the user did something stupid. Just like most car accidents are nothing of the sort, but car fuck-ups. Somebody fucked up.
4 simple fucking rules.
1. The fucking gun is always fucking loaded.
2. Don't point the fucking firearm at anything you're not willing to shoot, dumbass.
3. Take your pissant little finger of the trigger unless you fucking ready to fire.
4. Know what the fuck you're shooting at.
Unless the government makes an army of clones, they would be quickly overrun, at least in the US. At an 840:14 ratio assuming no other citizen picks up weapons, the government forces would quickly be slaughtered. That assumes all personnel stay loyal. And it doesn't count the reserve going for either side. Hell, armed with sticks the civvies would still slaughter the government forces.
This would be because distances are far longer and there is less public transformation. As a result, the government is both too cheap and incompetent to implement a proper driving test. The driving tests in europe, germany especially are much more difficult. A larger population with the same proportion of idiots will do that, especially as open corruption has been raised to a high art here in the US. And our brand of idiots accepts it more readily than those in europe and Japan. It must be said however, that everywhere else is as bad or worse.

The Office was a crap version of a much better british show.
Serenity flopped mainly because Universal didn't promote it at all. They barely even put any commercials out for the dvd's release.

erm, plato's forms actually.

The control scheme still sucked, it's just that the game was awesome enough to overcome the hinderance.
that should read, american liberal.

Someone will, and there will be enough of them that you could probably more than recoup the price on e-bay. Which I'll probably end up doing.
Which is bullshit as the conviction rates on murder is something like 80%, much more than simple robbery and much much much more than rape.
Crime pretty much fell in all categories. And almost all of the major cities have gun bans as well as a much less homogenous population.

Cause, you know, governments not in times of war aren't the greatest mass murders in the history of mankind. Oh wait, I'm sorry, they are.
I wasn't aware that all of the colonists were both under 18 and had criminal records.

I don't think traffic ordinances are considered a criminal record for statistics like that in the US.

You can thank Nader's car safety crusade for that particular bit of nonsense.
