Dear Delusional Pricks of the world:

Wow.

If I wrote an article imitating people who think like old Jacky-boy it would be much less far fetched than this garbage. I suppose we should ban guns, and liquor too; because everyone who shoots a gun become becomes a murderer, and everyone who ever drinks liquor becomes a violent abusive alcoholic. Coincidently, that isn't even the point; Old Jack's shot in the dark isn't even in the right ballpark. I suppose Jack Thompson didn't even think about the places in the world were crimes on par with and worse than what he described - even in jest - actually occur. Genocide isn't something video games invented, there are things happening in the third world that Jack Thompson couldn't even imagine, even in his twisted little dreams. I suppose... they play Grand Theft Auto there too? I find it presumptuous and arrogant that he believes video games are even a minor source of violence in our society. We should be so lucky that video games are even close to modern society’s major problem.

We'd better outlaw games. Oh, and as I said liquor and guns have to go too! Oh wait... what about religion? (Coincidently religion only causes problems because of people like Jack, since if people took MEANING out of it instead of taking everything so literally, or perhaps thought subjectivly for like 30 seconds it wouldn't even be a problem) Religion has surely caused more death than every video game and violent movie ever imagined. Yet... I don't recall Jack even mentioning that, I wonder why? Personally, I don't have anything against guns (my dad is a gunsmith, and is an excellent example of responsible use of a firearm), liquor, or even Religion (I myself am Catholic), but I just thought I'd point out that people like Jack Thompson only paint everything with the same brush if it serves their purposes. Maybe, if the National Institute on Media and the Family, Jack or anyone else has something to say about violence in video games or any kind of media censorship they should advocate some common sense among parents, and that is the nerve that leads to the root of our society’s problems. As far as I'm concerned if people stopped being such safety Nazi's and tried to teach their kids some morality instead of shrugging off responsibility for their child’s physiological welfare onto other people we'd have a lot less troubled youth, and quite a few less loudmouthed self-righteous fools like Jack Thompson.

You may be thinking “Alright Mr. Smarty Pants, what is the problem with society today?”. Well… I’m glad you asked.

Accountability.

Whether it is moral or otherwise, people don’t hold themselves to principles higher than those understood by the human ID. The problem with a minor wanting an abortion isn’t that some sexually explicit music video drove her to have sex; it’s that she was never taught to be responsible. When you shelter your children as much as Jack Thompson would have you, they don’t understand responsibility. It’s not that abortions should be legal, or illegal, it’s that people should think for more than five seconds before they have sex, and if you get pregnant... take some responsibility for your actions. When you don’t even know what responsibility is - because your parent’s didn’t even raise you, the fucking TV did because they “knew nothing that could harm you would be seen” or anything they’d have to explain to you (heaven forbid YOU should explain something to your own fucking children) because of wonderful organizations like the National Institute on Media and the Family have homogenized TV - you look for an easy way out, a way to shrug off your responsibilies (just like mommy and daddy with with you) as a human being... ie Abortion. All I have to say is FUCK CENSORSHIP. I’m all for proactive parenting. Painting a picket fence for everyone to look at is just ignorant, and it only goes farther to cripple youth from even learning to deal with reality. You know what happens when you ban cars from driving on your street because it makes it safer for your kids? You kid goes a block down and gets hit by a car, you short-sighted idiots. And you know what happens when people worry about pot? Crystal Meth destroys your small towns.

Interesting stuff

I've been looking into this Wikipedia alot, TONS of really cool information. Found an excellent quote:
"Why should the son of fire fall down before a son of clay?"

Lots of interesting stuff about religion and Myth, there seems to be a fine line between the two. I'd definatly recommend reading it if anthropology, history, or religion is an interest of yours.

The Corporate Model

I just thought I'd get this out of my system too.

Corporations are retarded; and here's why!
A corporation allows the creation of a separate legal entity that is help liable for the actions of a group of people running a corporation. The corporation is by law considered a legal entity like that of a human being; it can be sued, and it can be help responsible for things a company does. Previously corporations were created by the government to get large jobs done, such as building a railroad, but corporate lawyers saw their way to getting a corporation all the rights of a person, as well as deregulating the creation of corporations. Now, a corporation acts as a shield for the members within a corporation, so they cannot be directly held liable for something the "corporation does". I.e., a corporation goes bankrupt; the personal belongings of the people involved in the corporation cannot be liquidated because the corporation is a separate legal entity, now you may be thinking "Gee, that isn't too bad, that just means people can't lose their homes if their company goes under." and essentially, you’re right. That isn't my problem with corporations though, and now that you know what I'm talking about; I'll tell you what my problem with corporations is.

When you create a separate inanimate entity that has all the rights of a person, but is essentially being controlled by a bunch of people, you create a puppet that acts out all the most utilitarian desires of that group of people, often regardless of the moral and financial consequences these actions have on other people. The corporation is, by law, required to do what is most profitable for its shareholders... BY LAW! So, this entity does everything it can to make money, even if it undertakes morally questionable endeavors to do so. This degree of separation means the actual driving force of this emotionless thing cannot be punished for it's actions. Imagine if you had a puppet, and every time you thought something utilitarian, the puppet just did it, and it was the puppet's fault. That is what a corporation is. If you dissolve a corporation, you are not directly punishing the will that drove the corporation. The only way to punish a corporation is to dissolve it, or fine it in one manner or another.

Here you are, my final, consolidated and focused reason corporations should have never been deregulated:
A corporation cannot go to jail, but it CAN be responsible for someone's death.

So next time someone says "What’s wrong with a corporation?" tell them what I've told you.

If you are involved in Spam, go shoot yourself.

Whats with the spam comments? Do these people actually think anyone is dumb enough to follow one of these links and "Start up a home business"? Either they aren't reading their demographics, or there are some REALLY stupid people out there... but I would have thought it required at least enough intelligence to operate a computer to keep these retards off the internet. I wish I could speak with one of these spam sending people, rather the person who wrote the bot that goes and makes all these bogus comments. The convorsation would go something like this:

Keith: Hello! I'm Keith, how are you?
Useless Person: Oh I'm fi.... *Keith Slaps Useless Person*
Keith: What the fuck is wrong with you?
Useless Person: Hey! Well noth.... *Keith Slaps Useless Person again*
Keith: It was a rhetorical question you stupid asshole. Get a real job you waste of a human being.
*Keith kicks Useless Person in the shin then walks away*
