Humans were never said to be Forerunners

Was 343 Guilty Spark's quote to Chief just his Rampancy going overboard, or is there another canon explanation for that?
Humans like the Chief have geas within them. These geas contain ancient shit that connects them to old Forerunners long gone. Like Chakas' connection to the Lord of Admirals and stuff.
A bungie employee even stated that the original intention was that the Forerunners were humans.
yeah, the original intention, something they didn't follow through on.
343 didn't change anything, they continued what bungie wrote.
Quote
@HaloArchive I mean, the Precursors never existed before Halo4, at least at Bungie. Much of the fiction in Halo4 is pretty new. Good stuff!
That's from Paul Russel, he was part of the Halo team at Bungie from 1998-2010.

I do not support gun control, because I believe every mentally mature adult deserves the right to own a gun if they wish to.
What purpose do fully automatic weapons serve?

And while people who have mental illnesses cannot get guns part of the reason is if mentally ill people were allowed it would cause a lot of fear and paranoia.

Deci you've always freaked out when someone calls you gay or threatens your masculinity.

Same reason as everything else, mildly annoyed.

And I won't lie, having your masculinity discredited actually does hurt. Remember that one time Isara said that I actually look more of a man with that fucking mask than my actual face?

Yeah.... That stung.

But... I got over it.
My point. You don't think highly of yourself,  and you struggle with your image. You get violently angry when people imply that you're gay or effeminate, and you're bitter at people who brag about sex.

Violently? Bitch please.

You act like you know me irl.

And there is a reason why I don't like it when people brag about sex. It gets mildly annoying.
People called you gay and it make you explode. Multiple times.

People called me a faggot in middle school. I walked away deciding to ignore them. I only hurt people when they throw the first punch, or attempt to.
So unless these people are beating you up and throwing you in ditches why can't you walk away if you clearly don't care what people say.

Because forums != irl

There is always that one thread about someone who tries to get laid that sucks up all the discussion from the other threads and refuses to die....

Oh wait that thread is real.
word are words

There's always that one person like that. In real life all you have to do is not listen, online all you have to do is click away.

I had a bad feeling after Avengers 2 that Marvel might be losing their way. This seems to prove it :(
But then they go and make Guardians of the Galaxy
That was before Avengers 2, but yeah--there's still a lot of gas in the tank, and Guardians has the luxury of being a good distance from the rest of the MCU while still being intertwined with it.
Ant Man was also a great movie

-License to purchase a weapon that must be renewed every 5 years
-All guns must be kept in a safe when not being used
-Random checkups to ensure you're following he law
-Mandatory background checks with mental evaluations when purchasing a weapon and a license
How does this hinder criminals except through mild inconvenience?
Because criminals won't be able to purchase guns like they can now. In the long run it would be harder for them to illegally buy rifles as they slowly fall out of circulation.

Literally none of this impacts which guns can be bought or even how easily. It just means they have to buy a safe and have a background check, which is very common already.
It's not law on a federal level. And it's not common at all, many states don't have this. Also more thorough background checks should be made.

Trump: Virginia shootings "mental health problem, not gun problem."
http://www.cnn.com/2015/08/27/politics/donald-trump-virginia-shooting-mental-health-gun-laws/index.html
Spoiler
Donald Trump said Thursday he is opposed to tightening gun laws in the U.S. but is in favor of addressing mental health to prevent shootings, one day after a man shot two journalists on live television.

"This isn't a gun problem, this is a mental problem," Trump told CNN's Chris Cuomo on "New Day." "It's not a question of the laws, it's really the people."

Calling the gunman a "very sick man," Trump said mental illness is "a massive problem" in the U.S. He suggested more resources should be devoted to addressing mental health -- hoping to prevent shootings like the one in Virginia, which he called "really, very sad."

So, Trump, if this guy had mental issues then why is it so easy for people with mental issues to get guns in this country? Obviously there's nothing wrong with guns.
Even if it's just part of his platform and bid for votes, mental health is actually a huge problem that needs a solution right now and a candidate starting that discussion is good.

But I'm not sure how well any new programs can defend from the likes of this guy, he was functioning and seemed clean until this snap.
More and better attention for mental health care = great.
Guns and easy access to them are not a problem whatsoever = opinion discarded .jpg

Time to argue with you again.

I'm just going to say this once and only once.

If you take guns away, that's not going to stop shit like this still. They will still happen. It won't change a god damn thing. If anything, it will make shootings and murders even more common.

If I really wanted to, I can go get a gun right now at a flea market, illegal? Yes, but why would I give a fuck about the law if I want to commit murder or a mass shooting?

If you don't get the point now with your side of the argument on taking away guns from everyone who LEGALLY bought theirs, then I refuse to accept your side of defense entirely, and I always will, because you're wrong.

Try living in the US for 22 years before you decide what our laws should be, friend.
He's not talking about getting rid of guns he's talking about getting rid of the easy access to them.

Impose a system like the UK.

Mmmhmmm good luck with that. That's not going to change a damn thing here.
I'm talking to a brick wall.

I feel the same way with people who think they know best and yet they don't even live in this country.
Sometimes in life, it takes an outside observer to point out the flaws of someone or something

a valuable lesson you should keep with you <3

I like to go to a place with no people whatsoever.
Here's another life tip. When someone gives you advice you don't dismiss them, if it doesn't apply to you then don't say anything.

« on: August 27, 2015, 07:28:44 PM »
I would implement a system similar to the UK

-License to purchase a weapon that must be renewed every 5 years
-All guns must be kept in a safe when not being used
-Random checkups to ensure you're following he law
-Mandatory background checks with mental evaluations when purchasing a weapon and a license
-Ban fully automatic rifles nationwide
-Ban semi-auto rifles but bolt action rifles are fine
-Still allow handguns and shotguns
-Ban open carry
-Concealed carry is only licened to a person if they're in an emergency
-Ban private sales of firearms
-Ban handguns that have a barrel length under 4in

Full auto rifles are not needed at all, neither are semi auto rifles. Bolt action rifles should still be allowed for hunting.

If this were to be made law people that have banned guns would have to trade them in or face huge fines. Then to continue owning their legal guns they would need to apply for a weapon license and have it approved.

With this guns are still allowed in the U.S, but we're still getting a lot of guns away from people. In the long run weapons that can be purchased illegally would slowly decline in supply as less people acquire rifles. Although it would not eliminate illegal gun trade which nothing probably ever will, it will still make a good impact on it by taking guns out of circulation.

And to be serious, if the citizens ever truly needed to rise up and revolt against the Government the military would be one of the first to revolt. And other countries would also intervene to help the citizens as well as the U.N.
