Yes, yes it is.

Well, he did find Vortigaunts that weren't hostile on Xen, so he might hold his fire initially.

That wasn't their reaction at all. It was more like "Hello opportunity to expand our empire!". Huh. I thought the canon was the combine were scared shitless that Gordon survived Ninlanth. Which is why they hit us so hard. Oh well, now it's headcanon Since the Combine had probably been hunting down stronger versions of the Ninhlanth throughout the galaxy, I doubt they'd be impressed by Gordon. Remember, they conquered Earth in seven fucking hours.

Excuse my ignorance here, please, but why would that be a factor? Regards The militia movement feels threatened by it, that's why. My guess is that BTG means "civil war", but reality is "crazy far right movements".

That wasn't their reaction at all. It was more like "Hello opportunity to expand our empire!". You should see this thread then: http://www.accursedfarms.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=7565 We don't know for sure what lies within the deep depths of Xen. For all we know there really could be an Elder God there.

My mistake. That seems more rational than before. I still think that the actual possibility of it happening is about as likely as Indonesia becoming a Caliphate, though.

When they claim 9 things out of ten are violations when they aren't, and then proceed to gloss over or ignore the ones that are (occasionally), my respect for them tends to decrease considerably. I consider this a serious problem, the reason I'm not really showing a serious reaction is that this has occurred since 2001, and is sadly unlikely to end. Your claims of "civil war is imminent" are unfounded, however.

There were a total of two to four violations. 90% of the supposed violations were (what a shock!) conservatives complaining about policies that they hate. For the other 10%, you were correct.

1. Not a violation. 2. Not a violation. 3. Not a violation. 4. Not a violation. 5. Not a violation. 6. Not a violation unless it's conclusively proved to be Obama's fault. 7. Not a violation. 8. Not a violation. 9. Is a violation of several court amendments if implemented, but I have no idea if it was or not. 10. Is not a violation. War in Libya: Violation. "Undermining the military": A complete lie and far-right accusation. Abortion rights: Not a violation, and I don't even know if this happened. Appointing "czars": Not a violation. "Illegal recess appointments": Not a violation. "Forced" Healthcare: If you believe this is a violation, then you might as well stop. "Not enforcing laws": You're scraping the bottom of the barrel. Fast and Furious scandal: A violation, but for much different reasons than presented. Just want to point out that this was a Bush era policy. "Violation of voting rights": Another far-right lie. EPA "Violations: Not a violation. "Net Neutrality": I fail to see how this violates the First amendment. Not a violation. Violating "State's Rights": Subjectively racist claim. NLRB "Violations": More information necessary. 1. Illegal without a doubt, but not a Constitutional violation. 2. Violation. 3. Not a violation. 4. Not a violation, and will most likely cease being an issue in several years. 5. Violation on state level, not a federal one. Keep in mind that these come from the Bush era. Doesn't excuse its abuse by Obama, but was without a doubt abused similarly, if not worse than before Obama. 10. Bush era policy, and frankly given the context I don't care if it's a violation. 9. Not a violation (why is this even an issue?). 8. Not a violation. 7. Not a violation. 6. Not a violation. 5. Not a violation. 4. Bush era policy, but wasn't a violation either way. 3. Objectively racist claim. 2. Not a violation. 1. Not a violation. Which rarely corresponds to your other sources. Not at all, in fact my teachers have not "drilled" anything into me or my classmates. Your source for this is also very biased to the right. Just a question, did you get your values drilled into you by your parents?

A year ago I would have agreed. A year ago I was very uninformed. The US navy, intelligence services, armed forces, and the sheer distance and natural barriers in the way would turn it into a disaster before it began. This is a bullshit far-right delusion. The US government is not violating the Constitution.

He might have gotten shot in the face, though. Yeah, Freeman has nothing on Simo Häyhä.

Against my better will and judgement, may I see your proof? It was as logical as Jim Crow laws. No, that's the thing about governments; depending on what kind of government it is, it either believes in no personal freedom, a little, as much as possible, etc. Nazi Germany and the USSR were embroiled in one of the most violent theater of war on the planet, and yet they still took the time to kill or imprison as many dissidents as they could find. I trust the people who came up with the PATRIOT Act as much as I trust a sack of mulch. On the contrary, they would likely be the ones campaigning for restrictions on freedom, as they are "necessary war-time measures".

I would ask for sources, but you probably have none I can trust.

Insane.

Half Life. A fish, or no fish?

Reading a very long "novel" on 1972. http://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=150154

That's a thing I didn't even consider. Oh, and some even worse shit? There was a massive argument on Israel and its policies on Palestinians. To make the whole thing worse, Holocaust deniers started showing up, then the whole thing turned into a discussion on US foreign policy (the "nuke Mecca and Tehran" crowd showed up then), Then on the Cold War, then denial or glorification of crimes against humanity, etc. The worst part? This happened on a comments section for a video on Minecraft. Nothing to do with the video itself. Fucking Jesus tap dancing Christ....

Now that I think about it, there hasn't been a confirmation or denial of Ross doing HL2. The ambiguity is killing me here!

Amazing! Now when's the next season? That's a joke, people.

From what was seen in game, City 17 operates more like Poland under Soviet/Nazi occupation than Oceania.
