I thought the reformed troll aspect was interesting. Granted it could be entirely made up, but the idea that there was a rock bottom where said troll realized they had a problem presents an interesting parallel to other kinds of abuse. Heh, almost sense a really backhanded shot here. But good that he had some epiphany and gave her an ego boosting apology. I suppose this new class of troll (where it's harassment rather than winding up) have that issue.

What was interesting about that ? Just the usual "bullies are mean to make up for $shortcoming" yarn.

Pretty much, if it is unjustified you'll get off (the cop'll get severely punished too, heh..) so in the end not worth arguing with what potentially is some meathead lusting for a soldier moment.

Ontario salts a lot, city dumps a lot on park sidewalks too which turns icky when the snow is gone - this makes dog walking annoying as that salt can irritate their paws (and my princely dachshunds fight wearing boots). Does make your car nice and nasty to the touch too, unless you rinse it off after every drive.

Well, believable that would happen, I am not sure Ukraine is immune to corruption especially when one has valuable weapons (ok, or just weapons..). Though I'd expect it to go to organized criminals rather than another country.

So long as you're not expecting to play a Tomb Raider game. If you're down to play a cover shooter with a tiny bit of exploration and some insultingly easy platforming, then yes. Never actually played a TR game (I should try the ones I got off GOG), but that sounds pretty boring. But, I suppose I do need a shooter in the current rotation (CS:GO fills in the "Need to hate humanity" role).

Nothing wrong with what he said, slapping your kid on the butt or whatever isn't the same as taking a PVC pipe to them or using an extension cord to whip them (Trinidad discipline, man)

Doesn't, but treating them like you do a strange dog (any of them can bite you) is just prudent. As for cops shooting you for not complying, well, that probably depends on the PD. Refusing to comply will probably get you roughed up a lot at best.

Tomb Raider worth it at that price?

You work for Lockheed Martin, don't you.

Well, cruiser mounted ones is a bit better than a fleet of cop UAVs around. Well, treating every cop like a thug will keep you from getting your ass kicked or them otherwise abusing their power on you, up to a point at least. Thugs are generally dangerous, like a feral animal, after all. Is more pragmatic to treat them out of fear rather than anything else, really.

Tell some meathead the tool he has is nonlethal and he'll start using for anything and everything, people are lazy after all. And shooting projectiles at people does pose a risk of injury regardless. Amusing to hear justice in the context of riot control, at least in the instances I've seen in practiced Hm, wonder if you knock one out of the sky will they charge you with assaulting an officer.

Well, if they are really sketchy, I'd hope you would be a bit bothered by it even with a low chance of it happening to you. But then again, they wear badges so never know. Yeah right, no danger to protestors when it shoots projectiles I can see this coming though, now your average cop can pilot a drone. When they do that up here, the RCMP is going to kill hundreds, useless bastards all of them

Another kickstarter then.

Have to feel an F-5 would beat an F-14, at least in a dogfight.

Military pilots involved in more **** waving, really. Ho hum.

Empty Quiver would have been a better title

Assad might have won out or they'd have a tough time of it that maybe this ISIL/ISIS group wouldn't be running amok in Iraq. Could have been better. But, the world is what it is now, not what it should or could have been.

Wonder if they'd just left Assad alone what would have resulted from that.

Well I did say if you wanted to be mean to them. Can't get much more meaner than dooming someone to a lifetime of brutal servitude that they are only free from with death. Perhaps I just have a thirst for vengeance today, though.

Well, it's just weird to see it mentioned these days, granted I am out of the loop in ways to kill people (necklacing is something I found out about 2 years ago). Rather brutal way to die. If you want to be mean to ISIS people I'd go for enslavement, rather than death. Make them build roads or something.
