Gaming / Re: Is the Spartan 4 program the "true" spartan program?

What about it? How does Halo being fiction mean we can't have discussions about the things in the lore?
You can, it just cracks me up
So how does talking about the lore that makes up the series you play crack you up?
Just cracks me up how seriously you guys take it.
Like I said how do people that find a universe interesting were it's able to be talked about crack you up?  What cracks me up are the people that are complaining about sprint being in Halo or the new zoom thing which is about the same as the old zoom.
Why are you so offended? I'm just saying it cracks me up. You guys talk all seriously about all this stuff that doesn't even exist. It's funny.

Sprint doesn't belong in Halo and the new zoom is gay as fuck. And those are real things and gameplay elements to talk about. But I don't care, because I'm most likely not getting Halo 5.

The biggest flaw with private gun sale checks


So the fact that people who shouldn't have guns legally own guns isn't a problem because they might get one illegally?

So try and get it changed.
That's exactly what they're doing.
It seems to me they're pissed off that they can't do private sales without background checks. They can stomp their feet and call it tyranny, but it isn't.

This is a good law. I don't think it needs any changes and you guys are just talking about something that won't happen to strike down a law that ultimately will hurt private sales.

It also fucks up private sales by making them a big hassle. How are you supposed to run a background check for a private sale?

http://ballotpedia.org/Washington_Universal_Background_Checks_for_Gun_Purchases,_Initiative_594_%282014%29

The measure was designed to require background checks to be run on every person purchasing a gun in the state of Washington, even those who do so via private sales. However, transfers of antique guns and those between immediate family members are exempt from the background checks. The measure also required that dealers who are facilitating gun transfers - whether they are through the licensed dealer or a private seller - receive confirmation in writing from the chief of police or sheriff that the purchaser in question "is eligible to possess a pistol [...] and that the application to purchase is approved by the chief of police or sheriff." Furthermore, the initiative rendered it illegal to hand off a firearm to people outside a person's immediate family, though exceptions were mentioned, including situations in which people are at a shooting range or hunting.[1][2]
Ok.

What's the problem? The exceptions take care of potential misunderstandings. Otherwise, people should not be handling your firearm. If your friend wants to shoot your gun, he/she can legally do so at a firing range.

At the end of the day, all I see is people complaining background checks are now necessary for all sales, twisting the wording of the law to make it seem as if you hand your buddy your pistol for a second the secret police are going to take you both and torture you to death. More ignorance and fear mongering from the gun nuts. Shocking.

What if I have a visitor in my home who would like to get a feel of the action of my new rifle, to see if he should get one himself? It is unloaded. Should this be a crime?
No. I don't see how you'd get arrested for it either. Pigs aren't looking through your window, won't know if he's family or not, and would need a warrant to enter your home which they wouldn't get. There's also this awesome invention called "curtains". If I were you, I wouldn't tell people where I had my gun anyway. If they wanted to try it, I'd drive to a gun range and let him/her shoot it instead of holding it unloaded in my house.

Maybe you shouldn't be letting strangers handle your gun unless you're in a shooting range?

And really, I doubt you're going to be arrested for letting somebody hold your gun for a minute because he wants to check it out not only that, you have the exceptions you can call back on, notably loaning it for hunting. What's the officer going to say? "I don't think that's true"?

I just don't see how you think you're going to wind up in prison when nobody will find out and you have these exceptions in the law.

Background checks for sales are okay, but there is no reason to require one for physically holding a fucking gun.
So try and get it changed.

But don't complain about background checks and applaud people whining about it calling it tyranny. Either way it won't be a problem.

And even then, people can ask for a clause to be put in so these misunderstandings don't happen. There's no need to break the law and conduct private sales because they're mad background checks are going to be put in place. This has nothing to with freedom. This is just spoiled little babies crying that their loophole is going to be closed.

It would be nice if that was actually what it did, but they fucked the wording up so bad that it basically means you need a background check to hand a gun to another person.
Would you like to prove this?

I briefly read it, and from my understanding this is about sales and closing the gun show loophole.

http://wagunresponsibility.org/about-594/
Quote
Criminal and public safety background checks dramatically reduce access to guns for criminals, domestic abusers and other dangerous people from buying firearms. But in Washington State, only guns bought from licensed dealers are subject to a background check. This is a loophole in our law that allows criminals to buy guns from strangers – in parking lots, on the Internet, and at gun shows – with no questions asked.
Initiative 594 closes this loophole in Washington State by requiring that private sales and transfers —including those at gun shows or on the internet— go through the same background check process as sales through a licensed gun dealer.

We can though. See, advertisers are not fans of controversy. And you need advertisers if you want to run a website.

Actually, all this shit has just given these losers publicity and page views.

Seriously, this is a joke.
Clearly you have no idea what the fuck you're talking about. They're bleeding advertisers. We hit Gawker so hard they're trying to hide their advertisers (which is illegal).
And? These people still hold their ridiculous opinions and will continue to be in bed with developers.
We can't fix their delusional minds, but we can make it career suicide to associate with them.
But you're giving them all the ammunition and justification they need for their little justice crusade. In the long run, these people will be replaced by similar people and nothing will have been gained.
It's nice that you have a magical time machine and know the future, but I'm gonna keep going anyway.
No, I just know how these things end. If you guys think you're going to stop developers from bribing game reviewers by throwing a tantrum on the Internet, you're sorely mistaken.
