"That still does not mean game can't be the catalyst, geez" Ye,s it does. I don't believe for one second that a game (or any form of entertinament) cna be the 'catalyst' or the 'reason' for someone becoming violent. It's just silly. If someone beats me up becausd ehe wants my copy of 'To Kill A Mockingbird' so bad, I guess we should blame that book and ban it. LMAO Vioent people ar eviolent because of who they are, the situation they grew up in (absive home being a common reason), alchoholism, inability to control their emotions in uncomfrotable/unpleasant situations; NOT because of a game, or book, or movie. I have seen no facts to disprove that. None. It's like ther lameos who tried to blame D&D for certain violent acts in the 80s... yet, conviently ignored more obvious factors like horrible home live, poor choice of friends, generaldepression, etc., etc. top lamely focus on the book with the dragon on it. L0L Period.

Unlike poison, Mnahunt 2 will not hurt anyone. It's a game. It's not real. It's not gonna drive *anyone* who plays it to violence. Just because someone plays Manhunt 2, and then commits violence doens't mean the game made them do it. Chances are soemthing else caused the person tobecome violent. It be like someone watching Price Is Right then going out to commit robbery, and then someone blaming POR causing the person to commit robbery by showing others getting rich by 'playing a game' and making viewers jelaous. It's ludicrous! Games do NOT turn otherwise peaceful people into violent pyschopaths. Period.

You tmay think it lacks any redeemable quality; but that's just an opinion with no real facts to back it up. Why should you just whether a game (or book, or movie) is worthy or not? It's silly. That's what the old book burners thoguht too - their opinions and beliefs mattered more than others. I have played violent games all my life, and while I may be soemhwat of a jerk on the 'net; I'm no violent perosn. The same goes for 99% of people who play, watch, or read violent things. And, the otehr 1% were likely already prone to violence, anyways. The fact that a game company spent millions on this games is worthy of kudos. Silly dicators trying to tell other people what they can do in their OWN HOUSE. Gah.

Hmm. I figured mustard gas was considered WMD. Ah well. Did he use some on Iran? If not, than ah well. Anyways, Iraq did have WMD which is why they agreed to destroy them all, and later claimed they did just that without actually proving they had.

I'm speaking in general terms, silly. I'ma rguing the same way non Amerikans argue about Amerikan laws or non Kanadians argue about Kanadian laws (not that anyoen cares what we Kanadians do anyways, lol). It's really simple that ina country that brags about being 'free' like Britian does; they should actually follow thats entiment and TSYA OUT OF THEIR CITIZENS' HOUSES (barring actual dnagerous activity that can ahrm innocents). Unless I'm mistaken, and Britian is actually a dictatorship. My bad. Game over.

O RLY? It's a lie to state that Hussein was mass murdering his fellow Iraqis? That he had WOMD which was *proven* to be the case since they HAD USED THEM? That he paid suicide bombing terrorists? That he was a threat to the US and its allies? While it's true that not everything was accurtae, and Bush (or those who reported to him) lied about certain things; not everything was a lie. And, i don't think that inofitself is enough for impeachment. Don't bring up Clinton as I opposed his impeachment as well so it won't work.. P.S. I am more pro Clinton than Bush which is why I felt the Iraq War wa sjustified as Clinton stated it was when *he* was in office and his constant bombing of Iraq.

They wouldn't be disgusted by it if they didn't play it. IMAGINE THAT!

He did nothing illegal in the Libby case as far as anyone knows so its not an impeachable offense whether you (or I) like it or not. What does Enron have to do with Bush? I musta missed that.Outside of eveyrone being rich businessfolks and Bush likes the rich business folks. As far as the Iraq war.. while it has obviously been mishandled by EVERYBODY involved; I don't see how that's relaly impeachable either. And, no disagreeing with it is not enough.

Irrelevant. I don't care how violent the game,, or it makes someone sick, or whatever excuse is used. Games (like movies, books, and the liek) should not be banned and/or censored. If you don't likes oemthing; don't buy/play/watch/read it. It's really common sense. Violence is the point of the game including such popular games like God of War, Gears of War, and a host of others. I don't want to live in a dictatorship that tells me what I can or cannot do when what I'm doing isn't hurting anybody else. We have enough of that with other stuff. Basically, get OUT OF MY HOUSE!

Here's a thought. If you don't want your games playing a certain game don't let them play it. Perish the thoguht of parents actually doing their job. Manhunt 2 shoud be left alone. Censorship is for cowards with no self control, and being judgemental who annoy me because they get me to write posts like this judging them as well. It's a vicious cycle they start.

Proof, please.

I've changed a lot. And, I blame the internet 1%.

EA is awesome. Period. They would make ana wesome FO. My chocies would be companies who make games that i enjoy which would included both BIO, and Obsidian and completely nullify Bethesda.

Wow, thats up there. Even for you Just because something is illegal doesn't make it immoral. I have no perosnal problems with people speeding. Espicially, since 99.9% of drivers do it without getting into accidents. Speeding to me is not a problem; it's lack of control of the car is where the problem starts. I mean isn't there that one super highway somehwere in Europe that allowspeople tod rive at 'insane' speeds comapred to most NA places yet supposedly they don't, in comaprison, all that much problems with accidents due to that speeding? Game over, DUDES, game over.

Interesting. Can they prove a signature, though? I doubt a 'verbal agreement' will suffice in a court of lw in this case with Washington having (presumably) asigned deal.

I agree; but that wasn't the issue that some were arguing. They were whining how this proves Bush was going 'above the law' when, in essence, he was following the law.

"I have no sympathy for people who intentionally break the law and get caught." Aren't there laws that disallows many silly things? I mean, if a place made it illegal NOT to own a slave; I guess you would cheer if a non slave owner didn't follow that law? R00fles!

"the bigger picture of above-the-law antics the administration loves so much." You seem confused. Bush's actions were presumably LEGAL which means he FOLLOWED the law. Git it?

I think all these laws punishing drivers is beyond dumb. It sounds like a horrid mix of greed and delusional over protectiveness by nanny states.

Wat i find funny is I'm no big fan of Bush; but his haters are so asanine, foolish, illogical, and hypocritical in their criticsim of him; they make it *eall* easy for me to support him and me come across more pro Bush than i am. I wanted him to lose the 2000 election, and I like Clinton way more than Bush . Well.. I used to. until his uber supporters went insane. This is another instance where Bush is the Anti Christ despite doing something that pretty much every former President has done as well. *shrug*

Disrespect for the law? Huh? That's weird. Isn't the President LEGALLY allowed to give pardons, and 'commute' sentences? If so, this was the President upholding and using HIS legal powers. Nothing about disrepecting the law here.

Oh yeah, front loaded.

Where are people getting the idea that Gomez is being paid $10 mil? I'm seeing about $7 mil. Either way good for the Rangers. Too bad about Nylander - he and Jagr are perfect for each other. Now, hopefully the Rangers can trash Shanahan and gain by subtraction. Shanahan is too old to help.

"I don't know better, can you share your story? Who doesn't get free coverage?" I, for one. The only coverage that Kanadians are guaranteed are life threatening ones, and you would have to show that is. In fact, in some ways, it is better to be on sociala ssitance than have a low end job because you'd get more overall coverage then. I know this by experience. And, I've seen people putting in 40 hour weeks with actual helath insurance and still not be fully covered and have to pay for it out fo tehir own pocket. This myth that Kanada has fully free health coverage insurance is plain old fashion bogus. Is it better or worse than the US'? I duno. Can't compare the two since I've never been the US; but the US isn't the only country with some horrid 'worst case scenarios'. Taks makes a greta point about that thing. Not to mention the wait times can really be horrible in my country. Good health coverage; but FAR, FAR, FAR from perfect.

"There medical systems are better than ours." O RLY? That must explain why many Kanadians head south to Amerika for health care. Not to emntion, the absolute constant whining one ehars about our health care system. It's non stop, and annoying. And, we don't get fully free coverage for every Kanadian. That's baloney, and if Micheal Moore is trying to spread that kind of lie through this new movie; only a fool would believe it.
