qu1j0t3"As an active Rotarian I know just how much good the Gates foundation is doing for the total erradication of Polio. Whatever credit or press he and Melinda get for their activities and Philanthropy is well deserved.

XFaCEThe premise was that a computer program fought a virtual war, and those that "died" were executed by their own sideJan 20 02:14

qu1j0t3"Honestly, I don't give a rip how they made money, even if it was all from blatant piracy. To me, the problem is that the US has no legal authority to arrest people living and working in a foreign country, who have never set foot in the US, no matter what they did. I don't care if they were grinding up kittens and using slave labor; it's the responsibility of the country they're in to Jan 20 03:58
qu1j0t3police their activity, not the US arresting them for breaking laws in a country they've never been in.Jan 20 03:58
qu1j0t3If you (plural, general) disagree, then you need to fly yourself to Iran and turn yourself in for breaking their laws, as I'm sure you've broken some of their laws. And you need to send your wife and daughter to some village in Afghanistan to be stoned to death for not covering themselves in public.Jan 20 03:58
