  1. If animation ever truly becomes a story telling medium instead of a being seen as a "genre".. I want to see this..
  2. Didnt know it was a Princess Bride.. still gotta watch that one day, seems to be one big pop culture blind spot
  3. Me neither... i could never find anything representative enough to do..
  4. There are 2) things to watch -the mobilization had an end date of Dec 15... no mention of extension has been made to the media -if not extended then replacement units should already be mobilizing (screwing another set of troops out of Xmas, unlikely) An extension is more likely, it will ultimately depend if theres any "significant" incident between now and then... but the NG could be enough to handle that
  5. Militaries when mobilized take the essential gear.."have and not need, need not have".. that being said.. the announcement is the word from the top.. we shall see how border, homeland security and leaders on the ground apply this "freedom".... clubs/shields riot formations are certainly not beyond the realm.... We shall see how "serious" of a detterance message leaders on the ground wish to present
  6. Just read through Eric Nylunds Halo Trilogy... cursed the sky for Karen Traviss being the follow up author and have now begun reading Point of Impact
  7. Its a play to both i suppose... it uses the conditions (and peoples misunderstanding of how these camps go) to further highlight how unfair, costly and stupid the stunt is.. i agree
  8. Meh, thats how basecamps are generated on the fly... troops in the field are used to this and in a camp like Donna the support units build infrastructure... its a non-story.. i know the word deployment is freely used... but this is a mobilization.. hot army chow eventually starts getting served.. its only been a week and a half
  9. And there is the issue with both parties.. they all deal with absolutes.. -abolish ICE? No, have greater oversight on them to ensure they dont cross the line... hell i'd re adjust their targets and have them round up all the high risk MS13 jerks and kick them out. -Immigration justice? Get rid of the whole "Dems want open borders BS" and set clearly defined policy and explain it to the populace.. dont let Trump dominate the narrative
  10. To many everything begins and ends with guns... its what seemingly makes us "Americans". The manipulation of peoples fear that the gov't is coming for guns is the one constant thing to be exploited.. "Gov't is going to take away your guns" is the rally cry for anyone trying to derail any real discussion on firearms..
  11. Absolutely, but the majority of discussions are all from one side wanting to jump from one extreme to the other... Its a stubborn tribal fallacy of the whole thing... the population is manipulated to drive themselves crazy fighting elephant vs donkey... meanwhile the people in gov't view the people in tax brackets, interest groups and districts
  12. -Exactly, both sides work to undermine the other to better position themselves with talking points for next election... -If Reps lose the house expect Trump to further demonize and blame the ills of the country on Dems. Compromise is a word seemingly long forgotten
  13. The "theyre throwing cars" chase? might have to ponder that one a minute.. though Blues Brothers final chase is pretty crazy--- they were just launching cop cars into a pile, had nazis, the army, swat, starts with princess leia and ends with Spielberg..
  14. -2nd film was very obnoxious... the mean spirited partner schtick was tired halfway through the film... -really did enjoy that cuban mansion raid though.. obligatory this shit just got real
  15. A pigeon?... yet no bobby, Pesto or Squit.. get outta here...
  16. Trump can say whatever he wants to his base.. its whats effective... military leaders will do their due diligence and SRUF will dictate the reality for troops on the ground.. hopefully the wrong people dont take this at face value and fire on the troops at first sight
  17. I wont be.. its a working weekend for me.... plus i got some Ghost Recon: Ghost Mode to do.. when i do go in to RDR2, i will make a concentrated effort to one life the game
