I recall seeing the * ban in that thread and thinking it was a feisty joshing-about...Might I suggest a grain-of-salt approach? It's not that yer Belgian, you collided with a quirky Dane is all!

Japan actually doesn't "really" exist anymore. What we think of as Japan is actually a physically present and collideable holographic projection that they project on the world.

And for those that wanted to see the POV of him walking into the camera:

So, spawnflagger, it seems your theory is if someone upsets you, you can steal their property? They may have been wrong to be there, it does not excuse her behavior.
The stupid lady tried to get herself run into (so she could call the cops and claim assault? I've seen this tactic before) then tried to steal the kids property. If he had been hurt when she jumped in front of him and he fell, she would have a HUGE lawsuit coming. She wanted a confrontation, the kids wanted to leave. The kid that lost the board certainly seemed to have jumped off to avoid hitting her, not in an attempt to collide with her.
She has nothing to press charges for, the police won't usually come for trespass, and certainly wouldn't waste time investigating this.
I feel like she got what she deserved for trying to hit the kids and steal their things, she fell on her face. If she had caught them, it could have been assault at best, and possibly kidnapping and unlawful detainment, you just can't do that people. They might have been within their rights to beat her senseless until she let them go.

Fuck those little bastards. The lady was acting very reasonable - she's the manager, it's private property, those kids were 100% in the wrong. It also looked like the one that lost the board was intentionally trying to collide with her.

I hope this video gets popular, the police trace it down (dumb for uploading it...), and she presses charges against them. Of course since they are under 18, not much will happen, but hopefully they learn something.

When morons collide...

Not the Largest Man Made Non Nuclear Explosion
Halifax has you beat.
The Halifax Explosion occurred on the morning of Thursday, December 6, 1917. SS Mont-Blanc, a French cargo ship fully laden with wartime explosives, collided with the Norwegian vessel SS Imo in the Narrows, a strait connecting the upper Halifax Harbour to Bedford Basin. Approximately twenty minutes later, a fire on board the French ship ignited her volatile cargo, causing a cataclysmic explosion that devastated the Richmond District of Halifax. Approximately 2,000 people were killed by debris, fires, and collapsed buildings, and it is estimated that nearly 9,000 others were injured.The blast was the largest man-made explosion prior to the development of nuclear weapons with an equivalent force of roughly 2.9 kilotons of Trinitrotoluene (TNT). In a meeting of the Royal Society of Canada in May 1918, Dalhousie University's Professor Howard L. Bronson estimated the blast at some 2.4 million kilograms of high explosive.

I take offense at the assumptions you made here and on several other posts, assumptions you seem fine with that help to define your presence online-I come off as a terse, bitter asshole on certain offerings here often due to the slanted banter but mostly when my smug meter pegs the red too many times after reading smegma like,

"So they need skills like this to walk around and shoot up rapists?

"Knowing how to walk around and shoot stationary targets is not that useful in real world situation...unless you are walking through a school shooting up kids laying on the ground".

"you gun crazies"

"these delusional gun crazies"

"Did you get those stats from NRA's PR department?"

"Ok, i'll bite your troll bain"

Your comments on threads that take offense at the direction of Congress on this issue sound EXACTLY like the creature Feinstein as she clucks and embarrasses herself daily in these hearings regarding another ineffectual attempt to standardize worldwide, the availability of boomsticks of any kind to citizens anywhere-I have been watching the slow train-wreck of U.S. politics for 40 years with the help of the massive disinformation/indoctrination mechanism of the media machine.....it's offensive, as are those living in an insular and idyllic world of fantasy and delusion, not unlike yours.

Especially detest the smug, holier-than-thou bullshit tone (as I have stated hundreds of times before when someone crawled-up my ass on this site), and ESPECIALLY on issues of police vs. citizenry, firearms, and left vs. right (two meaningless labels that have nothing to do with the mechanism of how the game really works).

I am happy to remain a voice crying in the wilderness here but I won't take asshole or douchebag lying down- ...I am a very gracious, and reasonable person otherwise-

I promoted this video for Buck, a recent addition to the users here, because the issue is fundamentally connected to the reason the U.S. is still here and get's swept aside in favor of kitty-cats, Russian car wrecks, and people fucking themselves up....

Oh, and because I like the cut of Buck's jib-I regard ANY new user who actually embeds videos here, votes and comments who offers an alternative to the regular fare here a breath of fresh, fucking air-

You appear to me to be another person deluded by their own world view enough to use labels, stereotype (which you have obviously done with myself) cry racism, or employ a similar tactic when faced with common sense or reason colliding with your ideals. It's sophomoric and offensive and unimpressive.

Don't sweat it-If You creep-through my past comments I'm sure you'll find many examples of my own foot-in-mouth-Peace

I want to talk about something that to my regard is pure lunacy. But, to me, though I appreciate the doubters, the ones who question everything; would change their attitudes completely. None of the atheists should go on ranting until they take the ultimate bungie jump a human can have: DMT. One thing I would note is that I do not know if it was put there by aliens, evil spirits, sacred spirits, the Earth itself, God. No, I do not know and no one knows. I do not know if there is a price to be paid by having witnessed the underpinnings of technology, soul, afterlife, the universe, consciousness, the brain or whatever the hell it is. I have no idea, I just know that this experience is as real as fuck. Mind blowing. Scary. Terrible and healing all at the same time.

I was agnostic going into this, did not believe in soul, appreciate string theory, quantum mechanics but do not believe in it at some factual level, did not believe in any sort of God, or the afterlife. In mere seconds all my notions of what I thought or did not think or could never had merely thought up, all my permeating existential beliefs were thrown off like a nuclear bomb had gone off; revealing some partial truth of what we really are, witnessing an alien computer program, based on simple equations that manifests consciousness itself. Not a new conclusion and one I thought only drug addled scifi writer or schizos would ever believe.

It were as though I had found some way to put my head into the Large Hadron Collider itself whilst every proton turned into Higgs Boson; I then found out that this is not uncommon for such an experience. I know that can sound incredibly narcissistic, incredulous, unbearable, impossible. But what I got out of it was humble and that is another story.

There are experiences out there in which a person can feel as though they had been thrown into another dimension, experienced the Big Bang and met Gods of the Ultimate Power, they may or may not be and died on levels not many ever knew possible. In mere seconds the regular doors of perception are shut and a new life is born. That is where it gets tricky.

Until any of these guys can figure out why the human mind can explode on an infinite universe level of pure digital consciousness, think it can perceive these things and witness them on all levels and in new ways and come back to a normal human life in a normal brain without having in fact died? Well, I think they ought to stop talking and do more research. We have no facts and an experience like that will make it very apparent that the walls of reality can be so easily shattered to see new alien worlds, languages, dimensions, spirits, births and rebirths beyond all human comprehension. It sounds like the ultimate atheist experience, right? Not at all, it leaves room for something of the highest power that is manifested through pretty much any religion. We have to remember... you have to go to school, you have to get a job, we get wrapped up in our world. We have to act like we know what we are talking about and I am saying there is no evidence out there to support the fact that anyone can say that there is absolutely no God. There is absolutely no afterlife. Anyone that feels that they know anything about the nature of reality and who they are or what any of it means and apply lectures to it in the event that they become so arrogant and stubborn that they say what they think is absolutely correct when it is not accounted for by science, should do this. Do it after a lot of research. I say science but it is a paradox, I believe in Science first and foremost, it is our hope for tangible evolution, repeatable fact, but I am fairly sure this is something Science will never figure out. And after reading a similar experience: http://ewwty.com/2012/02/24/dimethyltryptamine-dmt-experience it seems in this experience there are some reoccurring themes. Science has so far written this off in the easiest way it can: to call it a psychedelic or a hallucinogen. So, find out. We know absolutely nothing in a very non existential way.

Skipping off the atmosphere or perhaps colliding with the many many tons of garbage spinning around the earth at incredible velocities? Have you seen the high-res radar scans of all the crap up there? I'm amazed the ISS doesn't get pelted more often...

And supposedly not a single star will collide with another. I always liked this video which shows what will happen from the surface of Earth.

No, firearms are not designed to "kill". They are designed to accelerate a projectile in a specified direction. Some projectiles are designed to expand when they hit flesh, other projectiles are designed to cut perfect holes in cardboard or paper. As a comparison example a knife is designed to part molecules and a hammer is designed to collide two masses together.

Their designated use is determined by a human's choice. They may be designated for use as a weapon or for putting holes in paper targets.

Just recently a lady decided to mow down someone who threw some chips at her car. You can use just about anything as a weapon even if it is designed for something else.

In regards to guns vs cars - he has a point. Cars do cause significantly more death each year. It's just not purposeful death, therefore it's a risk we take because it is impersonal - an "accident". I don't know the relative risk but I'd say you're more likely to die in a car accident than to be massacred. Should we accept one sort of premature death more readily than another? (I don't know)

The Large Hardon Collider is easily visible from the moon.
