Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Thats the thing, when I hide with my chopper gunner, all my teamates are around me and I get in a decent hiding spot with good cover from random rounds and such. After a few kills, my team likes to move foward, leaving the enemy team to spawn right on top of me. -.- Speaking of patches and commando, why don't they just change it so you knife faster? I think that was the original plan for Commando but they added in the tactical knife instead. I heard there was a perk from w@w named bonzai that did this. true? No it's not. Though you could use a bayonet that increased your range a bit, but slowed down the actual movement (killing dogs was tough with a bayonet). Thought I'd just answer that question.

I don't get it... So you think it's somehow your duty to mock people that are religious? Except for children, handicapped and broken spirited? You're an [wagon].

Most of those are domination. One of the score limited games was in fact a domination game. :/ Getting nukes is mostly luck. You just need to have those moments where all your enemies seem to not see you, you know? Just keep on trying.

Need help deciding between two laptops
I think I prefer the Asus. Not only does it have better editor's rating, but after a quick scan of the specs I found most was the same/a bit better than the Toshiba, but it was cheaper and lighter (ok, .3 lbs, but it's something lol). Personally I'd go for the Asus, but I'm not a computer wizz so you'd better ask for a second opinion too lol.

Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you have fed him for a lifetime
Look at article 29.1 The declaration of human rights includes more than just rights. It also includes duties. The way I see it, if you don't fulfill these duties voluntarily, but you have the capabilities to do otherwise you should do it. It's in the declaration, it has to be done. So the way I see it you lose the right for free welfare coming out of nowhere if you don't fulfill these duties. This isn't, as you say, making a person lose his value completely due to a bad choice. It's a person not following the declaration of human rights but still expecting to get all the benefits promised. If you have the capabilities to work, why not do it? Why should the government be pumping money into people that aren't giving anything back.

'Special Relationship' between the USA and Britain is over
From what I've read, the population is actually declining in some European countries. True. But uncontrolled immigration is not the answer for a declining population, as a few countries do. What the government in European countries should do, first and foremost, on that bit is to encourage people having kids. As it's now, in many western countries, people are choosing their career first and having kids are on the bottom on the "to do list", generally speaking. Altho i'm drifting a bit away from the topic here. Surprisingly, a recent survey with Belgian youths (I think it was 18-20 or something like that) are putting kids before their career. I'm not sure how trustworthy such a result is, but we might actually be seeing an improvement when it comes to that.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
How will Cold Blooded stop a Precision Airstrike? Which is also useless in a fire fight. Which is why a lot of people use Stopping Power, because when it comes down to it, nothing else [bleep]s [cabbage] up as well in a fire fight. how will SP stop a precision airstrike? :o and cold blooded > useful killstreaks like pred or ac130 or any chopper. SP only helps you show up as a red box. the extra damage against vehicles from the pro version probably won't do you any good because either 1. you die everytime you unload into said kill steak or 2. a smart teammate with cold blooded shoots said kill streak down with a stinger before you can because he was not respawning 4/5 the time the kill streak was up, though he mightve been [bleep]ing about his dumb [wagon] teammate that did not have cold blooded on standing next to him got him killed a few times. I do perfectly fine without SP in firefights against kids with scar or acr or tar or m16 etc. I find SP a waste of a tier 2 perk, and in my mind those who use it are a little less experienced players that only believe one thing: whoever can do the most damage per bullet fired will win, regardless if any of those bullets hit. and I find that in killcams, maybe 1/5 that have SP are spray and prays. What I was trying to get at was that you saying "if youre talking about shipment, then maybe. but cold blooded pro fixes that" is false, as cold blooded won't save you from that Precision Airstrike. I communicate with my team, as soon as air support is in I ask if anyone is going to take it down. If I get a no or no answer I switch to a class with Cold Blooded and shoot it down, otherwise I stay safe until it is shot down. I find stopping power can greatly tip the scales in my favour, as I spend less time shooting at the person (as long as I'm hitting them, of course.) This gives the other person less time to react, and I don't show up on radars as long. To be honest I'm not much of a Cold Blooded fan, my favourite Tier 2 perk is Hardline. You can communicate with your team? As in, you say something and they respond? What the hell. If I do run into someone with a headset on Demo/Domination they usually just have static all the time, and they never respond. Maybe it's different on 360...

Abortion
Let me guess -- you're male? Any other forms of slavery you're in favor of, or just this one? just this one Ah, okay. I hereby grant you honorary membership in the Republican Party. That's an insult to Republicans and Politics in general. How dare he insult republicans? :P (no offense to any Republicans lol) Anyway, on topic, one thing I never got was why abortion isn't just legal. If a woman wants to get an abortion than she can go get it. If an abortion is against her ideals, than just do whatever the hell else you would do with it. This may sound... offensive, but pro-lifers are ultimately destroying the world by making overpopulation come faster. It's a tiny difference, but it'll grow exponentially over time.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Finally got an 8th nuke today. Ground war TDM on Derail. Finished with 35-2, 1 death from getting shot (I got reckless once I got the nuke and ran around with a Spas lol), and 1 death from the nuke. I really owned them lol.

I disagree with that. In real life terms, this means that if someone knows how to do a specific job, but doesn't because they're too lazy, they should still get money for not doing anything at all. Basically, I could graduate high school, go sit at home and get money for it, because you say it's a human right. I disagree with that. You give up your rights if you're too lazy to work.

Creepy Thread
I think that piece of 538 is a piece of the End (hence the name Holder of the End). He tells you what happens when it all ends, and most people will feel tempted to take that part of the End he's holding. If they want to, they'll die in that very room. I think that's the explanation.

Abortion
Adoption has been mentioned a lot, and Iamdan (I think) has made a good point that if everyone were to put their kids up for adoptions, foster homes would be too full, and ultimately these kids would just have a bad life. Why would the mother have to go through 9 months of pregnancy to give birth to a kid that she didn't want to give birth to in the first place, only to put the kid in a foster home where he probably won't be happy. Though I agree abortion shouldn't be used a s birth control. That's just foolish.

Abortion
You say it as if every person that finds out they're pregnant gets an abortion. We haven't gone from protecting to killing them (hell, we're protecting them too much right now). The fetus doesn't have a conscience yet. Do you remember your time in the uterus? I sure as hell don't. No one does.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
I think I read that somewhere too. I wonder if they'll remake Bog lol. I used to really own on that map. As long as they don't bring back Crossfire lol. Bring bak old crossfire and vacant. We Pay we say. Shipment would be funny what with all the killstreaks. How would you go about using an AC-130 without killing yourself Haha, yeah, that'd be tough. I remember dying 4/5 times if I got an airstrike. Sometimes twice in the same airstrike. In WaW you got kicked if a downloadable map came on, but those didn't come on all the time. Fourzerotwo said they'd be making 2 new game modes: Stimulus and Stimulus HC. It might be the same system as WaW, implementing the DLC onto regular playlists and kicking whoever doesn't have it. Otherwise, I don't know CoD4's system, so I have no idea.

Dope.
Why should marijuana be legalized? :) Unlike all other drugs it is medically proven to have LESS harmful effects from mass consumption over a persistent period than tobacco and alcohol And I remember there is no harm done to the lungs whatsoever if you eat it (in a spacecake for example).

I don't get why you would want all drugs to be legalized. Laws aren't there so can annoy you, laws are here to maintain order. If people were to take drugs (hard drugs, that is), problems would arise. Addicted people are a risk to a society, they'll get aggressive if they don't get their next fix, they'll commit crimes to be able to fund their addiction. It goes much further than just harming your own body. Because I find it very wrong that these drugs are illegal in democratic countries, even if they're very harmful. Are human beings smart enough to make up an opinion and vote for who they think is fitting, but not smart enough to decide what's best for them? Yes. Or else we wouldn't have any problems with drugs right now. Are you claiming that if drugs were legal, we wouldn't have any addict that would be a threat to his surroundings? It's not because you know better that everyone does. Actually, the point I was trying to get across is that no, they're not smart enough to vote. Many people vote without actually knowing much, if at all, about the parties participating, their agenda etc. If, despite that, people have the right to vote, then people should have the right to decide whether or not to consume drugs, despite the risks/problems/etc. Those are two completely different things. People usually vote after finding out a thing or two on the candidates, and if they didn't know anything they wouldn't bother to vote (at least, not in the US where you choose whether you want to vote). Look, we both know both of us will just stay with our point, so let's just agree to disagree, because we've gone extremely off-topic.
