Pretty much either leave the Commonwealth or live with it.

No birds near our house, but plenty of geckos. In the summer, they love to sit on our garage doors in the evenings and soak in the residual heat. Every night I come home, I get to watch them ride the door up and hope they don't get caught in the wheels on the side or fall down.

I remember reading about that when it happened because the monkey shares my name. I am glad she got a new face and hopes she can get back as much of her life as possible.

And try to stick your girlfriend's pink gun into your pants.

Not necessarily. I have already read reports where guns have been taken up, so they are out there. Many of the people in those riots don't care about laws, so if there are laws against having guns, they ignore them. No matter what a society, even an island society, tries to do, guns will make it...

Definitely, and likely he will ruin his career, but it shouldn't be about destroying a man's career, but bringing him to justice or stopping an injustice.

Oh, you can upgrade some laptop graphics cards, but it is very difficult and as was mentioned, is too expensive and too much of a hassle to be worth it. I had a laptop as my first computer, then got a PC because I wanted the ability to upgrade it and a bigger monitor.

While I am glad a wife beater was stopped and charged, ruining his career is not something to be proud of. Bringing him to justice is what it should be about.

I also note it was his girlfriend's gun, not his own. That would probably explain why he didn't know jack about it and put it in his freaking waistband. What a moron, truly, but at least the only person hurt was himself. That is why they require gun safety courses to get a carry license.

If a movie was good enough to warrant a remake, that generally means it is good enough to be left alone.

Definitely. For me, it was a medical issue because anyone who has been admitted under suicide watch (even though I made no attempts) is pretty much SOL for getting into the military. Yes, it is possible to get a waiver (and God knows I tried for months) but it is very, very hard. Despite that...

America just broke 300 million people a few years ago. We have a LONG way to go before we hit 380 million. Hey, why don't you consider that a lot of people tried to get in the military but were rejected for various means? The way the military has its entry standards set up, most of the...

A couple of points on that. 1. Many of those things are funded not through federal taxes, but local or even state taxes. I know they are all taxes, but people generally have a lot less of a problem paying local and state taxes because they know it more directly benefits them (as it should)...

Beskar better not stop them cold. That was one of the absolute worst ideas that Karen Traviss ever introduced into the SW world. Nowhere in canon was that present other than her works.
