I gotta say I detect some degree of exaggerations and posing of problems that aren't real (illegal drunk drivers ?) here and there when you lot talk immigration and immigrants, but that is nothing new I suppose. I think it's pretty sad that you have come to regard them as a kind of second class citizen (illegal citizen, but the distinction is not important). Whether you like it or not they live and work for decades in the US, part of its economy and its demographic, but without political representation because they don't vote. Given the high birth rate of Hispanic families there might well be more of 'them' than there are of 'you', in specific states. That kind of situation tends to necessitate political change.

Napoleon did more ass kicking than running away. Anywho not every country has an island guarded by the largest fleet in the world to return to.

It's obvious that he has been influenced by the strong arguments in the various gun control threads and just recently had an epiphany. I don't like to blow my own horn (what a disturbing figure of speech).. but.

Today was one long exercise in getting pushed around by various people. It's a good thing I don't excite easily.

California, who are you kidding ?

That is kind of like saying don't blame a rapist for breaking into a girls bedroom when her parents weren't home. The opportunity presented itself. Also, since when did illegal immigrants become a race to be bigoted against? That's also like saying don't speak ill of murderers... its bigotry. Yeah well we aren't really talking about illegal immigrants, we are talking about Mexicans. Opportunity means they are trying to build a better lives for themselves and their families, I'm sure you are familiar with the concept. Surely you don't believe that illegal automatically equates with something morally wrong.

You know we have a word for broad negative generalizations about a specific group of people. If you want to stop illegal immigration make the borders more secure, don't blame people for trying to find opportunity wherever they can.

Explain the big words from your economics class for the plebs pls.

You mean the political blow-back of the Madrid bombings ?

It was that Senator who is on a crusade against the FED and regulating interest rates, I forget the name. Anyway apparently either he was full of it or I remember it wrong. 10% is the unemployment rate for the US and for California according to this http://www.bls.gov/

I noticed some guy mentioning that the US has a 16% unemployment rate. That's quite a lot, and with everyone expected to fend for themselves times must be hard for a lot of people.

Whats a floppy.

Well, I gave three reasons why I think the repair system is one of the highlights of Fallout 3's gameplay design. Care to tell me why you hate it so much? It adds nothing to the game yet is highly annoying? Weapon condition should not be scalable to damage at all, 3 or 4 stages of disrepair is quite enough, we don't need the full range of 1-100%. If those stages had separate animations, weapon jamming and forced reloads, even skins, that would be something worth having.

That would be me, the shallow person that is. I guess I have a high standard for the effects needed to pull SF off at all. I have no patience for klingons. Anyway isn't it time Macgyver was put out to pasture.

The Pitts is the best adon imho it feels very fallouty. Broken steel is just more combat and more levels. I feel like i did that already. Point lookout is not very coherent, but pretty fun the first time around.

It was better than I thought it would be. I like the Baltar likealook.

I'm bored with this thread now. Arguing about sexual consent and age is dangerous ground, and there is something to talk about I'm sure, it's not all black and white. It would be easier if we weren't talking about someone who admittedly forced himself on a minor though.

The bloat flies make good target practice with the mouse, radscorpions and mole rats are just annoying. Radroaches you can just ignore. Anyway there should definitely have been more than a handful of different wildlife encounters, and they needn't all have been hostile.

If you help some wastelander against the a weak deathclaw, it's health is already very low and it moves very slowly, you can get the deathclaw gauntlet schematic at lv1. Thats another random encounter. Deathclaws become the wasteland cliffracers at around lv 18, interspaced with giant radscopions. If you can't wait that long they congretage around Old Olney, bring your alien blasters.

No time to play it now, it'll probably play better after the obligatory patches anyway.

eh, how'd you do that? i had a minigun and a AK-47 ar whatever it's called few minutes after i left megaton. I wouldn't call it hard as much as repetitive. I found at least 2-3 hunting rifles while clearing out the school and the super market. I don't know if it's my pc but there have been some weird things happening. When I do some critical hit and sent my opponent literally flying around, there's sometimes some weird scrap of metal flying around in the distance just like an UFO. I avoid getting close to it as it may hurt my character but it flies in circles and makes a weird noise (just like a sword, ya know, "swoosh"). Really weird. I have seen this 3 times already... Well there is a random encounter where you hear an overhead explosion and a UFO crashes, I thought I was being attacked by meteors and didn't pay attention to where I was, but there is an alien blaster and precious alien power cells for booty if you search the area. If you remember where it was go back and advance time to night, the power cells will glow in the dark, the blaster is a lot harder to find.

my guess is the 2$ guy is running a pyramid or a chain letter scheme. You get promised all sorts of nice things, and then they cleverly cloud the fact that you are doing all the work.

Poziomy, you have defended your position into a corner and now you can't get out because it would mean losing the argument. You don't know anything about the character of the girl Polanski raped. The fact that she had sex before is unusual, but not relevant to whether she was raped. Polanski admitted the crime and fled, knowing full well that if he ever got caught he would go to prison. If you are going to cry 'miscarriage of justice' show me something other than speculation.

I don't have the patience to wait 10 episode for the mystery non affected man to be revealed. I just know I'm going to de disapointed when they finally do roll out the full plot.

Does the combat system work this time ?
