I don't get what they mean by "probation". I read on NASCAR.com that he will still be racing? I'm confuzzled.

Theres a new company that's sole purpose is designing an overall better police car for US police departments.

Here it is.

Quote from Becky Rose :

A 3 year old shooting themselves with blanks will still die.

I HIGHLY doubt that, she would get severe burns, and the pressure would definitely hurt her, but kill her, I don't think so.

Quote from mrodgers :

Indeed. I'm sure this girl would have inspected the gun without picking it up (went off when she grabbed it from the table) first to check for a red tip.

You have a lot of faith in what a 3 year old is capable of doing.


What purpose does having a gun sit on the top shelf loaded but with a trigger lock and the first 3 rounds blank? Why not have it unloaded with the clip and bullets located in another part of the house?

It has been proven that children respond well to colors(especially bright colors). When I was little, I was aware that fake guns had blaze orange on the tip.

Safety, granted, we don't use the gun lock unless there are children in the house(the youngest person living here is 16(my sister) and she knows how to handle firearms, safety, etc) This may sound a bit paranoidish, but if there's armed intruders in your house, and you run to get your firearm, and the ammo is in another part of the house, it's not much use if deadly force is needed. The blanks just give you an extra layer of safety (accidental firings, etc) and like somebody said, could scare an intruder. I also have a rifle in my room with ammo nearby, like I would ever have to use it, but it's there just in case. (and yes it's locked)

Quote from Alex_Ward :

That's what I was thinking, but there is a black Wii now though :S

No, but they sell black Wii controllers, which makes sense when you see the black gun, but seriously, the company should be punished. If I recall, it's illegal to NOT have blaze orange on the tip of a toy firearm.

EDIT: nevermind, apparantly they do make black Wiis, just not in the USA, my bad.

Quote from Inouva :

Hah. "Chris Hansen uses Take a Seat, it's super effective!"

What kind of Wii controller component company doesn't paint the end of the Wii "gun" orange? I mean, if it was, the girl could've easily identified the Wii gun as having a red tip, and would have never messed with the gun in the first place. I agree that the guy is retarded for having a LOADED gun in the living room. We have a loaded pistol on the top floor of our closet, but you have to unlock the trigger lock, cock it, and the first 3 rounds are blanks.

The same thing could have happened in the Hamlin/Keslowski incident as well, it's just a matter of how things turned out. In the end, everybody that does it is pushing quarterpanels, what happens after that is completely different.

Quote from logitekg25 :

guys be honest please, does anything happen if i try the triforce thing....be honest please.....i dont any personal stuff erased, at all....

It actually recharges your HDD. Don't know why people are freaking out about it.

I agree that it was a stupid move, but they didn't suspend Hamlin for intentionally wrecking Keslowski, or Montoya intentionally wrecking Stewart in the Homestead race. It's all just anger caused by close racing.

Quote from PMD9409 :

I just watched a video to see what you are saying. Basically the cars produced less power which made the racing closer. I'd rather watch an Indycar at Richmond where you can't just put a brick on the throttle.

I went to the IRL Richmond race this past summer, unfortunately, they took Richmond off the schedule . It was a really fun experience, I'm a huge NASCAR fan, go to all of the Richmond races, and I am kinda surprised that they sounded so much louder and (in some ways) better than COT's. Unfortunately, the shortness of Richmond(which we all know creates great races in NASCAR) didn't help IRL that much. There was a total of like 3 passes the whole damn race, and maybe 2 wrecks(single car spins of course....) It was great seeing the cars, experiencing the piercing shriek of their little V8's bouncing around the grandstands, but the racing unfortunately wasn't that great.

Quote from Takumi_lfs :

SidiousX @ Are you racist?

E: Kalev, you stole my idea. You racist!

Quote from Kalev EST :

You're racist!

If other people think I am, then I guess I am, everybody is racist if you think about it, there's just varying levels of hypocrisy, once people realize that, everything will be just dandy.

http://www.fugly.com/media/IMA ... my_fish_funny_picture.jpg

I bet people will call me racist because there's a black kid in this picture.

Quote from matijapkc :

Funny pics make me laugh.
But making fun of some **** doesn't. So if you want me to not hate you, DO NOT touch black people. They had some tough history and they should be given some rest. OK?

lol you think black people are the only ones who had a "tough" history, There are none alive that even experienced slavery(in the US that is), so they can't use that excuse anymore, seeing as no white people are old enough to experience slavery either. I hate when people feel like we "owe" them something, just because people enslaved them over a hundred years ago (a time when none of my relatives lived in the US..)

I'm glad they haven't resorted to copying NASCAR in trying to turn the racing into a show rather than a sport.

These days they are the same thing.

Quote from PMD9409 :

He was giving her the finger. Danica tried to cover it up by saying he was trying to tell her to follow him up on the outside for experience.

Finger points up = high.

They were talking about him talking to her on the radio and telling her to follow him.

This isn't a sniping sim, but it is a long range shooting simulation. It's a pretty good sim, you need to do some math to hit the target though.

Can't remember why it's mirrored and upside down...

Here's another which isn't so cryptic.

Ah, I've seen the whole pentagram thing, thought it was something else.

Political correctness is complete bullshit, you can't say anything today without being chewed up for it.

Don't have to tell, I've found out it sometime ago, I'm starting to get old..

First one made me cringe. I'm afraid I don't understand the Whitehouse one.

Quote from P5YcHoM4N :

No "sniping" game will ever be like shooting in real life, for the fact that the things that affect a shot in real life will not in a game. Many have faked motion, but it is hardly realistic and ballistics that are inconsistent.

I've missed a shot before because I had consumed too much sugar before going out and that caused tremors, I've also had tremors caused by a lack of sugar. There is also breathing, eye position how you hold the rifle, trigger control and how well you cleaned it.

So really they are all stupid as they hold no relation to shooting in real life other than the fact you have a rifle shaped object on screen.

If you want point and click shooting, grab any FPS. Although good luck finding one for free. You could get a mod for HL1, if you don't already have it, as it is about $3 these days. Same goes for BF1942.

Well the same thing goes for any type of sim. For instance(in real life), trees alongside the track keep flashing sunlight in your eyes which gives you a seizure, and you hit the wall and die. Can't really replicate that in a sim realistically. Sniper Elite is pretty realistic, probably the best sniper sim out there, although I don't really know of any others.

Quote from 60iano60 :

i relli like sniper games and want to download one on my laptop to play any one know any good ones to play or where to downlaod them

no stupid ones also

Thanks Ian....

Sniper elite is a sniper sim, it's pretty good, kinda hard too.

Quote from PMD9409 :

She can't drive the car. It's a driving sport. They say its about "entertainment and PR", but if she is running so slow that they can run the same speed with a restrictor plate, then well, she shouldn't get any props.

It was her first race, give it a rest. It's hilarious how hard people try to find flaws in her.
