Garrrr. I really wanted to play too.
Not funny. I'm American and love chili and I've even had chili in Texas. Childish humor.
It doesn't even have anything to do with liberals. Those people are clearly ignorant and disrespectful shits. I'm very liberal and spend most of my time in Vermont (arguably the most liberal state) and would never disrespect someone simply for being in the armed forces. People like that give liberals a bad name. I like to think that most of us are intelligent reasonable people but there are fucktards on both sides of the fence I guess.
swimming, wakeboarding, waterskiing. I ski in the winter a lot. I need to get into biking since I can't really run (flat feet so I get brutal shin splints)
Don't they usually say that only the elderly and people who are around it a lot (nurses, doctors, other hospital workers) should really get it?
I'd say 8/10. Maybe I'm easily impressed because I have no photoshop skills whatsoever, but a lot of them look pretty cool to me.

My BF2S name that is :p I would prefer if people could recognize me by having my BF2S name match my in-game name. Am i just not seeing the option or do you guys have to do it for me?
Flaming liberal and proud of it.
A bit of a cynic as well.

It makes me sad that it is not.
I agree to a point. Part of the problem is within Islam itself; it needs to be reformed somehow to discourage fundamentalist interpretation of the Koran. Remember though, Catholic masses were given in a dead language that none of the lay people understood until Vatican II in the sixties. Religions tend to take time to change and I'm inclined to wait rather than to disparage the Muslim religion.BN wrote:
The Islam faith has not progressed through the ages as say Christianity hence it has its extremists. They take their holy scriptures literally when religions need to be updated.
I'm not attempting to misinterpret the present. Fundamentalist Islam is a problem in the world today that threatens lives, especially those of Americans and Western Europeans. I don't see an obvious solution to the problem and I still don't buy the argument that Islam is inherently more violent or intolerant than any other faith, regardless of what those books might say.Kmarion wrote:

Much of it is misinterpreted.
If I wanted to spread fear I would just tell you to read these books.

I have to be honest and admit that I have not read any of them but I also have to say that all it takes to get a book published is for it to be provocative and therefore marketable. It doesn't mean that its true or that it isn't biased or misleading.
I'm not going to try to equate the level of Christian fundamentalist violence with the level of fundamentalist Muslim violence if that's what you mean. You asked for a modern example and I supplied one. Islamic fundamentalist violence is higher today than Christian by a wide margin but it hasn't always been that way and won't necessarily always be that way.Kmarion wrote:
You wanna go tit for tat?
I just don't buy the argument that there is something inherent in the Muslim faith that makes it more susceptible to fundamentalist thinking than any other religion.
Okay lets talk about fundamentalist Christians who decide that they're going to blow up abortion clinics.Kmarion wrote:

QED
Perhaps you're thinking of Mormonism with the polygamy thing, but even the Mormon Church has outlawed polygamy. Just because it's mentioned in the Koran doesn't mean that people practice it on a broad scale. There are polygamous men in the Bible as well.Smitty5613 wrote:
pros: you dont need BF2 to kill people and you can have like 10 wives
cons: everyone else hates you and your 10 wives look like men
That's precisely my point. If you want to discredit religions that advocate violence in their sacred texts then you are wrong to single out Islam.ATG wrote:

Pretty much every religious text
You're not really gonna score points by quoting the Koran. Pretty much every religious text has some wacky shit in it. Like the Bible for example:
Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death - Exodus 22:19
Go and smite the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead with the edge of the sword and; also the women and little ones.... every male and every woman that has lain with a male you shall utterly destroy - Judges 21:10-12
The Bible endorses violence all the time. It's easy to look at just a few words from here and there in the text and forget about the overall meaning.

For all you "torture works" people. I agree to a point. Torture is quite effective in making most people talk. It is not necessarily effective at making people say anything of substance or tactical value.Ajax_the_Great1 wrote:
Your statements are wrong. Torture works. Do you people just argue for the sakes of arguing?
Furthermore, even if torture was effective, that fact alone is a piss poor argument for engaging in it.
That's a pretty lofty accusation and I'd love to see you back it up. Also its important to note that when speaking of countries "doing" torture we should limit the discussion to sanctioned torture, not individual acts. Just because a few soldiers from a country decide to torture someone does not mean that it should be said that that country engages in torture tactics.usmarine2007 wrote:
By one persons opinion? If it truly didn't work, why does damn near every country do some form of it?
This doesn't apply in the case of the United States however, since the current administration in all its wisdom has effectively condoned torture.
Actually you are completely off the mark. Freedom of speech does not exclude words that might insult people. Freedom of speech excludes things that could be dangerous to people's safety (like yelling "fire" in a crowded theater), not things that might be harmful to one's delicate sensibilities.cyborg_ninja-117 wrote:
Freedom of speech doesn't give you the right to say anything... Freedom of speech is allowed only if is not insulting anyone. But why don't they ban all racial slurs as well?
stats not updating......again?
You my friend are a fucking moron if you actually believe that. All of that gateway drug bullshit is just that, bullshit. I smoke weed and have no desire whatsoever to experiment with heroin, coke, LSD, or any other drug (not that there's really much risk medically of trying any of them once). As far as a certain lifestyle, I'm not really sure what you mean. I'm a social person who does a lot of other things besides smoke (including going to class and having a 3.47 cumulative).=MCHD= arush5268d wrote:
Marijuana leads to a lot of other stuff, and quite often, a certain lifestyle.
Marijuana is less of a health risk than tobacco and alcohol (I drink but don't smoke cigarettes) and is literally impossible to overdose on. If I wanna sit around with my friends and smoke some green, why should that be anyone else's business?
The marijuana prohibition in this country is a product of fear and lies. It's time to at least decriminalize it, if not legalize it right away.
I don't really agree with the join a clan stuff. A lot of people (myself included) are looking for people to play with and have fun, not an obligation to attend matches and practices and to have to deal with the bullshit heirarchy system in a lot of clans. I just know a few people with the game who I'll call to see if they wanna play.
Oh and all the people who are anti-unlock can suck my balls dry. I don't give a shit if you think unlocks are lame, I'm going to kill you with them anyways.

I agree to a point. In my experience, any Jalalabad server with more than 32 players seems to devolve into a big stalemate. For some reason 32 seems to be the dividing line. I've had a lot of great Jalalabad rounds with less than 32 players and a lot of shitty ones with more than 32.
What the hell is VB? Oh and I also didn't see Sam Adams on the list. So that might have to be my favorite non local. Especially their seasonals. But I really don't care what you think about Corona. If it's summer, there isn't much I'd rather drink than Corona with lime.cyborg_ninja-117 wrote:

Yeah there are probably about 500 times more assholes calling anyone with an ounce of skill a hax0r than there are actual hackers
I don't respect ranks in general unless its REALLY high. I respect skills. Any asshole can bumble around for 500 hours and get a decent rank. But I'll respect someone more if they have 50 hours but are actually skilled.
EDIT: Case in point, that Dominiko guy bumbles around with exceedingly average stats for 830 hours and has a much higher rank than me. But I would consider myself the better player.

Sniper: Best L96A1 Worst SVD
SpecOps: Best G36C Worst AK-74
Engineer: Best M11-87 Worst MP7
Assault: Best AK-101 Worst G3
Medic: Best AK-101 Worst M16
Support: Best PKM Worst M249 SAW
Anti Tank: Best DAO-12 Worst MP5
It's actually probably a tie between the AK-101 and G36E for medic for me. Depends on the situation.

any idea when stats will be back?
I have better stats than that guy and I don't hack. lmao. Not that that stops insufferable noobs from accusing me.
I like to think that I'm a pretty big deal.

Yeah there are crazy fucking rednecks out there so you might want to use your brain the next time you feel the need to 'cause trouble'.
Kind of a poor example since the guy who shot that kid will almost undoubtedly be charged with murder 2 or maybe manslaughter if he's lucky.Sgt.Kyle wrote:

i got piss drunk and pretty high this weekend. no ding dong ditching though.
OK. Good to see a fellow ground punder out there. Definitely good weapon skills and a pretty ridiculous SPM. Probably a bit of a medic whore though. I did a quick calculation and you get more than 1 revive per minute as a medic.
is there some sort of eta for when we'll be able to get the stats again?
