The wiki definition of "asylum seeker" seems pretty loosey goosey. Wouldn't 100% of illegal immigrants claim that status? Yep it is, but it's something they have to process through rather than start swinging the hammer. I guess it is also a case of not doing things just because you can, certainly is no harm to keep the families together and handle them as a unit in either asylym seekers or plain illegals. Or at least to me. https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/politics/Family-Separation-Border-Homeland-Security-486035941.html - could be BS, could be true and it'd be a cheap easy win for Trump

Well Morocco's out as well, kind of a shame. Saudi Arabia not getting crushed by Uruguay...thought not sure if it is down to them or Uruguay just being uninspiring.

I don't know how they could be. The same thing happens in our criminal justice system even for citizens. Both parents get jailed for a crime, with nobody else to take the kids(s)? Into the foster system with them. The asylum seekers is the issue, that's not a crime as far as I know. Apparently they are caught up in the zero tolerance mentality as well.

Crocodile tears would be the ones coming from the administration if any, seems the critics are genuinely upset. Also, is some debate if they are separating asylum seekers from their children, which if so, is confusing but never doubt people's ineptitude.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS - VISUAL NOVELS ALLOWED
Seems like something people shouldn't be too surprised at. "tracking" "mostly harmless", those don't belong in the same sentence without a negation. Well, Vice was the only one I had found at the time, It's on PCG and others now. Interestingly some people are a-okay with it, some saying it's needed to make the games better.

Which games have aged well in your opinion?
Hard for an adventure game to age poorly, I guess the text parser ones may be more so than others but that's just the users being lazy even some 3D ones have aged ok for me. Actually, no, forgot games that can get into an unwinnable state, those have not aged well.

True, when I read unite I had pictured voluntarily joining the nation rather than the US deciding to become the Third Rome- World Cup 2018
Well Russia is getting it done, bit of a surprise to see Egypt buckle like this.- The Athenaeum - Reading updates and Literary Review from the Obsidian Elite (this means you)
Well true, but regardless of the outcome had always thought it was the case of evil corporate types robbing him of his baby rather than him more or less dying by the sword he wielded. Was funny to read EA being born as a dev focused company, too- The Athenaeum - Reading updates and Literary Review from the Obsidian Elite (this means you)
Reading Hackers, realizing Ken Williams was a bit of a ****, don't feel as badly for Sierra being taken from him. Also RMS is as extreme as I thought- RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS - VISUAL NOVELS ALLOWED

Should have been more subtle about it. Wonder what enemies Rubio is referring to, Cuba I am guessing.- Cinema Paradise - the Movie Thread Transformed
Sorry if I am coming across as rude. It being funny is one thing aside from the rest...- Cinema Paradise - the Movie Thread Transformed
Well, as you said aggression is a term, and plenty of people are aggressive without being violent, didn't say I was refuting anyting you linked. And was trying to explain TN's joke to you a second time, thought it was pretty clear what he was getting at, so not much more to it.- Cinema Paradise - the Movie Thread Transformed
Thought he was referencing people who bring up masculinity and violence when there's a school shooting and people respond with "well, not all men.." as a parry. But really, women can enjoy killing as much as men, so a female marine being the Doom protagonist still works. And again, the basis is some marine taking on Hell solo for some reason, so realism's out the window and on fire at this point,no ?- World Cup 2018
I dunno, they seemed pretty even with Japan for most of the match.- Cinema Paradise - the Movie Thread Transformed
Well, that was the joke, people bring it up when some dude lights up his school, etc. Aggression isn't violence necessarily, anyway, people certainly need to find healthier outlets for it based on commuters' behaviour- Politics Thread - Ka-tet of 19
Wonder what government system it would have, I guess we'd probably stick with the US system and end up with the US portion dominating the rest of the country. One good thing, you can send all the wannabe soldier cops down to Mexico to fight the cartels - Politics Thread - Ka-tet of 19
