  1. Yep Im going to have to agree that the cars arent to blame but the drivers. Ive driven vans, SUVs, sedans, etc... Ive had just about one of every type of car since Ive had my license and in 5 years Ive never had an accident and only one speeding ticket. Sure 5 years is a fairly short time but Ill tell you that the scariest place I ever drove was the parking lot of my high school. There are a lot of drivers out there that dont have a lot of things that are just common sense and safety in driving. The one that gets me the most is the people who change lanes extremely fast on the highway. I was taught to ease over so that if someone was in your blind spot you wouldnt hit them. Slowly changing lanes has saved me from an accident on 2 occassions because no matter how safe you are and how many times you look there will be that time where you just dont see someone. When I lived in Chicago I saw crazy drivers on the highway going 90+ mph and swerving in and out of traffic with no care and they were labeled by me crazy drivers :P Now I live in Seattle and the majority of the drivers dont even go the speedlimit :huh: yet they still dont really know how to drive. Driving around other people drives me nuts cause so many times Ive almost been hit by other people.

     

    Most idiotic thing Ive seen is when I was on a one way street in the center lane to go straight. The guy in the right turn lane decided to try and turn left and smacked right into my car. We were even at a red light so there is no excuse for him to not see me he just didnt look where he was going. Then he changed his mind turned right and sped off so I couldnt even get his license number. Luckily he didnt do any damage to my piece of crap car that I had at the time ;)

  2. If the life is created by the mother, it's hers to decide what to do with.

     

    Careful on your wording. By your definition there your mother could abort you right now.

     

    a·bor·tion

    n.

     

    1. a. Termination of pregnancy and expulsion of an embryo or of a fetus that is incapable of survival.

    b. Any of various procedures that result in such termination and expulsion. Also called induced abortion.

    2. The premature expulsion of a nonviable fetus from the uterus; a miscarriage.

    3. Cessation of normal growth, especially of an organ or other body part, prior to full development or maturation.

    4. An aborted organism.

    5. Something malformed or incompletely developed; a monstrosity.

    Source Dictionary.com

     

    Its funny that by definition the fetus or embryo that is aborted is incapable of survival and not just a possible burden on ones lifestyle. Abortions are an excuse for people to be irresponsible with their choices in 99.9%(This number is purely made up from my guess) of the times they are performed.

  3. You arent making the decisions on your own though. Your parents have put in you some sort of morale values from the start maybe not with words but with actions. We all know that actions speak much louder than words. I could be wrong but I doubt your parents are chain smoking alcoholics or anything they probably set a better example than that for you.

  4. SNES > All other gaming platforms ever period. Let the list begin: FF2, FF3, Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, Zelda, Super Metroid, Mario World, Yoshi's Island, Mario Paint(fly swatting game owns), Castelvania, Battletoads, F Zero, Mario Kart, Star Fox, Mario RPG, and many more.

  5. Every kid is going to rebel against their parents. It wasnt that long ago that I lived under their roof and sure I did my share of rebelion. However the morales the brought me up with and demonstrated stuck with me to a certain degree and I wouldnt go so far. I am coming up on 21 Ive kissed a girl but I am not having sex with my girlfriend mostly for 2 reasons. 1) I am not ready to have any kids yet under no circumstances and 2) we will be waiting till we are married. It is much harder to go without something that you have all ready had. If you do go out and have sex it will be much harder for you to go without. Also I think everyone knows that oral sex will just lead to real sexual intercourse. You experiment with one thing and your curiosity peaks and you test something else. I dont see anyway that this class will help any pregnancy rate and if anything it will only encourage it.

  6. A woman should never have to bear a child against her will. It should be the right of every woman to have abortion on demand. This goes hand in hand with the right to vote. Why bother giving a woman the ability to vote if she can't make decisions about what to do with her body?

     

    She isnt making a decision about her body. She is making the decision about the body of the child that she is carrying in her body.

     

    Did you know that the majority of women who get an abortion wouldnt do it again because they have regrets and its a really emotional experience for them?

     

    Several times the right to have an abortion was compared to the right to vote. The two arent even close. Abortion is talking about dealing with 2 living people(some people debate it as 1 person but even then they have to admit that it is 1 living person and 1 living thing) whereas voting only effects one person it isnt a matter of killing a living thing/person at all. Even if you deny that a fetus is a living person you are still killing a living thing. A fetus is alive whether you want to classify it as a person or not it is.

     

    What really gets me is I have a real life friend who is pro choice yet he got in a strong debate with me that cosmetic companies and drug companies shouldnt use animals to test their products. He would rather see them tested on humans and risk human life over that of a rat, cat or rabbit. I dont understand how some people can put the value of an animal higher than that of a human. And a fetus is a human from the time of coneption imo.

  7. I would do it if I knew how. Im sure I could figure it out as I have done my fair share of programming so I will attempt to look into it possibly sometime in the future. I would love to change he_tennis to not be able to buy stuff that was always my only complaint about the map.

  8. I saw someone else questioned a map on here so I will to even though I all ready bugged Fatty in game :P he_tennis and he_tennis_dd are available in one of your map packs for download and I love the maps myself so if someone would be so kind as to put them on the server so mid day when we have a low population and play a fun map from time to time we can throw them on that would be great :)

  9. golly gee! cry for all the people with retail. Go to your local software store spend $20-30 and buy Half Life. Best FPS game for single player ever. That and Deus Ex :). If you play CS and you have never played through HL you owe it to yourself to do it at least once ;) GREAT game.
