    Iraq is now a Soverign Nation

    Because it doesn't really effect the day to day lives of most Americans. Social unrest generally requires things like widespread poverty or famine, which aren't prevelant enough in America to force change.

    How truthful is the government?

    Heh. Kerry's best political capital is that he's not Dubya. Anyway, I wasn't aware that 'politician' wasn't synonymous with 'liar' in European nations.

    French 35 Hour Work week

    Eight to five is nine hours, MadDog. Minus the hour for lunch, you're still working an eight hour day.

    Good LAN games for old computers?

    If you have Doom, Doom 2 or Heretic, take a look at Doom Legacy. They updated the engine, including some of the multiplayer features.

    No More Moore!

    But even that point was so poorly made that you'd be better off directly recommending the book Moore mentions rather than this film. One of the examples the author uses, that Moore doesn't mention for obvious reasons, is the huge exposure school shootings were getting at a time when they were...

    No More Moore!

    There are very few statistics in the film. Most of the "inaccuracy" comes from dishonest portrayals, not just factually incorrect statements.

    Guns: are they necesary for home defense or a public menace?

    Or, if you don't like my interpretation of the bill, let's see what Minority Leader Tom Daschle has to say about it:

    Guns: are they necesary for home defense or a public menace?

    The exemptions say it in plain English, Welsh. You can still sue for negligence. I'm not misrepresenting anything.

    Just saw Passion of the christ.

    Checking it out on imdb... Oh, it's one of those foreign films. Well, I don't hold with that. It might get a spot on the Netflix queue, anyway, though.

    Lord of the Rings at the Oscars

    I think LiT tends to be a bit overrated. It was a good movie, but I don't think it was better than RotK. I haven't seen Mystic River, so I can't really comment on that.

    Just saw Passion of the christ.

    No, I've only seen the 70s one. Is the remake good?

    Just saw Passion of the christ.

    Catchy songs, too. I saw a live performance of it once.

    Guns: are they necesary for home defense or a public menace?

    Welsh, I'm not sure what Bill you're reading, but both of those clearly allow negligence cases to go to court. We have a criminal justice system with very high standards for an important reason: to avoid persecution of innocents. All these bills do is bring civil suits to that same careful...

    Lord of the Rings at the Oscars

    The Order is a separate entity from NMA. The Order's topics should have no bearing on NMA topics.

    Guns: are they necesary for home defense or a public menace?

    That small fraction of dealers probably don't deserve protection against civil suits. However, that tiny minority of dealers may poison an entire industry. There have been dozens of suits against dealers and manufacturers, and all but one of these that I know of have been completely thrown...

    Guns: are they necesary for home defense or a public menace?

    Is it fair for a company like Bushmaster, that manufacturers rifles popular for use among hunters and competitive shooters to face a lawsuit because of the criminal actions of two men? Even if Bullseye were negligent, should Bushmaster be liable for trusting the government's licensing program...

    Guns: are they necesary for home defense or a public menace?

    A straw purchase is making a firearms purchase for someone who couldn't legally make one, and it's against the law federally. If the dealer knew this was going on, then the dealer would also be committing a crime and could still be sued. If the dealer didn't know the purchases were straw...
