PRICK.
I DO NOT deserve what the government is throwing at me.
(Thanks for the support, even if it was both for and against me).
BTW, if you never notfied the mod on yourself, you dont know what you're missing.
Sure it feels good to notify on others, but sometime it feels best when you do it on yourself.

Forum: Bonus Whores | SBR, whose site is very similiar to BW's just announced they plan to create a separate site to allow US players to acces SBR without fear of violating the new rules.
The new site will have all the same information and forums as the regular (non US site), but all links to books, ads for books, and contact info for books will be absent from the US site.

Forum: Bonus Whores | The people who run this country are fucking mutts and have no motivation but greed. The wanna police the world? You bet your ass they do, because in their eyes there is no other way of life, but the one THEY want you to have!
You cannot reason with these people and their agendas.
There are so many things wrong here, its sick to even think of it all.
Our Gov only allows the sale of tobacco and alcohol for one reason and one reason only. Money! They do not give two shits about your average american and the whole thing is a sham.
Its all about control and keeping people in checks and balances. They have the power and will do everything possible to make sure that they are not challenged for it. Keep everyone in their own class, and if the threat of them breaking through to the next class does occur they control things to cripple the people of this country. Gas prices, higher taxes, etc. They will never let the people who can make a real difference get ahead, and th... | | Read Entire Entry |

Once your governing bodies take a while to mull over what they did last Friday, and see the hypocricy as mentioned here, and the possible violation of International trade laws etc. etc., can they find a way to backtrack? At least in the way the laws will be written anyway.
The kind of debates that are going on over have been inflamed by the recents murders at various schools in the USA. The gun laws will always come to the fore when this kind of thing happens, but countries where gun ownership is difficult are finding it hard to believe that you guys can just pop out and buy a gun, but can't now spend a few bucks having a bit of a flutter on the internet.
Unless your politicians can get their act together somehow, the outside opinion of the way the USA seems to be trying to police the world, both externally and internally, will not improve.
This is no way ... | | Read Entire Entry |

Pretty soon the U.S. will have police staking out McDonalds drive thru windows and pulling people over because they are not treating their body the proper way in the eyes of law.
You are allowed to order one kid sized burger, and a small fry, but anything over that: Your ass is going to a fat farm and then a nice 60 day stay in jail.
If you even look at a Taco Bell, thats an automatic sentence of 6 months. | | Static Link |

Read this... And, read the law itself. Not only are the money transfers illegal, HYPERLINKS to sites that accept them are now ILLEGAL. Fortunately, you can only be jailed if you are accepting money from the said website, BUT you CAN BE FORCE to REMOVE your url.
You can't even link to a site from your blog.
