Doom is pretty much superior to Wolfenstein 3D in every way, better controls, strafing. (You couldn't strafe in Wolfenstein 3d iirc). and an engine that actually made levels look different by having angles in rooms. I think there was also other improvements like better lighting. Oh, and the weapons weren't nearly as wimpy and you had 8 of them..

Take a look at any Wolfenstein picture on the internet or that game link that was posted before yourself and then compare it to this. You really can't make a picture like below with the Wolfenstine 3d engine I think.

You're falling into that trap again saying that all Republicans think that prisoners deserve brutal treatment. Now, Republicans are generally known for their "law and order" stance when it comes to criminality, but let's not say that would condone beating random prisoners like you would see in a third world prison. Also, while it is true that most conservative Republicans tend to have a narrow perception, the liberals are just as worse with this, having a one-track, pass the buck kind of mentality.

Like many other people in this thread have stated. The United States only has a 2 major party citizens, so regardless if you think like a republican economically in terms of the free market or tend to agree with them on some subjects. When you vote for them, regardless, you support the activities the big polticians in their party want to do, like make prisons worse as an example, even if you don't agree with those practices. Also. In my area, 90% of the Republicans all think in the same backward way, where they'll vote somebody just because they say they believe in Jesus or something like that even though they probably don't and end up screwing everybody over.

Once again, you're falling into the exaggeration trap again. The lot of the drug offenders (let's say marijuana users as an example) that end up in prison are either part of a RICO case, (gang members basically) or have a lot more than what would be considered a personal amount. How can we change this? It's rather easy, a few states are legalizing marijuana while a lot others are mulling it over (most likely for medical rather than personal) so that should ease some of the incarceration rate.

As for rehab, I totally get that as well, though the problem is that no one wants to deal with them if they relapse again, you can only treat a person so many times before people just give up on them and can't function without it.

Banning those drugs in the first place is what started the immense gang and black market activity around it, look at the alcohol prohibition. What you said about one drug getting legalized probably won't ever happen for a lot of southern states.

and I suppose a good solution is to completely ignore the problem with those relapsed drugies is throwing them into a rotting jail cell for what they do to their own body?

Finally, the last sentence you made was absolutely retatrded, I just don't know where to begin with that. I will say this however, Wal-Mart isn't to blame for people's health problems, it's idiots who doesn't give two shits about healthy living in the first place. Sure they stock smacks, soda pop and other such foods, but that's a part of their business, and you have the choice not to get them in the first place.

Are you kidding me? Everything from corporations like Wal-Mart is heavily processed, from the obvious junk food to the steroid filled meats raised in extremely poor conditions. In the town I live in, it seems like they ripped it dry.

Freedom is a good ideal. If you don't like that ideal, I don't feel like educating you on why it's a good thing. BECAUSE I'M FREE TO DO SO.

You damn liberal fascists have no fucking clue.

Way to use a political buzzword to make yourself seem smart.

America for the most part is an individualistic country which prides itself on individualism to a certain extent, part of this is why there is so much resistance to most types of European-style of socialism. That actually makes a lot of sense considering that with a population of nearly 320 million people, with various faiths, creeds, philosophies and what have you, it's hard to implement true socialist measures beyond the city or state level whether it's through usual resistance or simple a matter of cost and application.

No offense but what has socialism have anything to do with this.

I generally disagree with republicans sometimes because they tend to have a narrow perception, especially socially. For example, in terms of prison systems, they seem to think most if not all prisoners are the same and deserve brutal treatment. When the reality is; most people who end up going to prison or jail go for very different reasons, and a lot of them don't deserve the harsh punishment they get, especially drug offenders which need to go to rehab but republicans and especially conservative republicans say "NOPE! FREE LABOR AND EVERY PERSON WHO GOES TO JAIL IS BAD!!"

Not to mention the innocent people who go to death row and rot in prison even though they're not guilty of the crime. Death row in general shouldn't exist in the US for the sole fact of innocent people alone, but hey, the law system is perfect and let's not use any money to help restructure, and just use it to invade some random country. or help fuel corporations that leech off small towns or replace all healthy organic food with preserved trash that will make you obese and might give you other health problems down the line like Wall-Mart.

The whole prison thing is just one of the reasons why I see the Republican party as it is.

Societies change. Once they change, are they the same as they once were?

Philosophy might interest you if you're willing to take your horse-blinders off.

Is it just me that has noticed or have other people noticed it too? I don't mean to offend people who are republicans. It just seems like there is quite a bit for some reason.

undereducation on your part has alot to do with it. And lack of real-world experience. And probably a healthy dose of propaganda from left-leaning sources you really aren't too excited to share, because they probably have a recognizable name like "mommy" or "daddy 'bama"

Maybe you should actually back up why you seem to be implying Republicans have good ideals instead of passively passive aggressively attacking me like some nerd from R/Atheism

I don't understand why most of them only think for themselves and not for society as a whole... it's not like you're going to be here forever anyway, the society will, but not you. On that note. Several republicans are also conservatives, and are pretty hypocritical, because for religious people, they sure do like to destroy the land that they think God has given him, and like to be mean-spirited toward others.

Why are also so many of them socially backward or think with their emotions instead of logic? That leads to a country that operates on mob mentality.

Sources: I live in a very right wing area and my experience with Republicans on this forum?

these kind of threads don't help, especially when everybody reports that they had babies even when using a condom and after checking for holes/tears.

I'm just wondering if they can or not, eventually down the road if I start having a relationship with other people I don't want to end up doing something wrong and end up getting them pregnant and having to bed a dad midway through college (If I go to college.)

Also I liked Shujinko.

Along with Bo Rai Cho I also liked Havik and Ashrah, the idea of any other abomination from Hell destroying other evil and eventually rises up to the ranks of a citizen of Edenia was an interesting concept.

It's basically the US, but better.

Which is why I don't want to move there really. Some areas seem nice, but based on the Canadian media I've seen, it seems to be going through a process of cultural decay and from what I've heard the Canadian government is heading towards the direction of the United States government in terms of internal problems and strife.

Also, paying for free healthcare through taxes is better than paying for a $30,000 operation. At least in my opinion.

Like really. i highly doubt you will get a reasonable answer here.

because it's one of the only online communities I know and it's better than the other online communities I know.

:but I don't know everything about your living circumstances (Nor do I really need to know) and refuse to assume anything about them.

What do you mean? Iour house payment is around 300-500 dollars a month ( I think) and we owe around $2500, DHS is not being that responseful besides from food stamps even though we don't have an income.

Moving to Northern Europe especially a place like Norway is becoming a life-long goal for me, but as it stands. Is it really a great country? or are there underlying problems?

by that I mean things like, drug problems, bad government infrastructure, etc.

The reasons I set out Norway as a target is because of;

-Less people
- cool time patterns, such as all night days and midnight suns. (I'm a night person)
- Extremely lovely viestas with rolling green hills
- Progressive government

etc. I can imagine myself listening to my favorite music while looking at the beautiful fjords in this country, but is it all that's cracked up to be?

Shit, dude. I'm sorry to hear that.

Deal extremely large quantities of really, really hard drugs. Cash in a flash, bro

The above is also a certified piece of terrible advice

The only real advice I could give you is to work a lot & spend little, in a few months if you haven't spent much you should have the dough you need, but if other people can find work in the family as well this could be payed off much, much faster.

The problem is since our vehicle is towed it would be hard to find work that's too far off from where we live, especially considering this is just a county seat where there's not much work to begin with anyway.

Also your second suggestion isn't that bad. Considering how many people in my town alone get away with it. (though im not enough of a dickhead to sell hard filler-filled drugs)

Ok, so we have around 5 years left to pay on this house, but we might lose due to the amount of money we owe (around 2500). I'm going to try to get a job not to far from here to help pay off the debt, but DHS isn't really helping us at all apart from food stamps and our car just got towed So we probably won't be able to do any jobs far away. Help?

america is the only place where you can get less punishment for neglecting animals/killing people but you get more time for stealing, possession of low-level drugs or other stuff like that.

i don't like wendy's burgers that much anymore because they changed the receipe and imo it was a downgrade.

one of the changes was that they changed the dill pickles to sweet pickles, but they don't taste like regular sweet pickles, they taste like uncooked cucumbers drenches in sweat from the devil's a-hole. the other stuff stuff that wendy's has makes them still better than BK though.

i had an art teacher that was nice and let us work at our own pace, he also played really cool music.

My mother has been very depressed ever since her husband went away, what should I do? I keep feeling like she might do something drastic ( I doubt it though ) every time she goes through these depressive mood-swings.

Did you completely ignore my point about how bad the DHS is in a lot of states in the U.S.?

Does that mean you're saying it's hard to get assistance or something? I can't really comment on something I've never experienced. In my state it's extremely easy and people complain about people overusing it or abusing the system, or just complain about it in general.

Either way, this situation is not justifiable. You don't do that to people. I can think of a ton of other ways to "get food for his kids" that don't involve harming others. If we're going to pretend that's why he robbed a place.

In many southern states like the one I live in it is hard as hell to get DHS benefits unless if you have some specific legal quality about you like being apart of the 5 civilized Indian tribes, yet a lot of people in these states still complain everybody on itbeing lazy or some dumb shit lmao.

sometimes people go on edge and violence becomes the only answer for a lot of people.

I'm not racist in the least. I have black friends, Mexican friends, white friends, Indian friends, Jewish friends, and so on. Okay but I will grant you I am classist and there is a huge difference. But don't go throwing such scum in with the average poor. I know poor people who are very decent, upstanding people. I have friends who have lived in trailer parks and they don't go around doing this stuff.

I think you completely missed the point I was making about stereotyping everybody who's poor is because of drugs.

A likely conclusion is that it's fueling a hardcore drug habit. Might not be crack. Could be meth. Could be heroin. Point is it's very unlikely he's doing it to "feed his kids".

... Oh wait, no you didn't miss the point, somewhat. Doesn't change the fact that you're a sheep who believes that people below a certain income level that do shit like this are just doing it for drugs. Why don't you go vote for the most republican candidate out there so you can drag America back down into the industrial age when children were working in hard work conditions at age 5 and the government was even WORSE in terms of human service aid?

But the two classes of people I absolutely hate (Here comes the classist part) are low-class scum and high-class scum. If the low-class scum would commit crimes exclusively against the high-class scum I really couldn't care less

... So you wouldn't mind if a poor person like you described robbed a person as long he was rich? You realize a lot of rich people who aren't politicians are generous and give a lot of their wealth away right? but I guess to a person like you who values a person's worth based on financial class that wouldn't matter jack-shit amirite?
