          If you have any specific questions I may be able to answer them as well, because I tried to absorb as much as I could with this event, and I'm also very disappointed nothing came of it other than Erdagon seizing more power and the US kissing his ass the entire time, and the US media in general using the words "democratically elected" so often, sometimes multiple times in the same sentence, so often it was like Edward Bernays wrote the crap.

          Just like the US did with Pincohet.

          Great historical example!

                  Budgie smugglers = Speedo's
                  Budgie smuggling = Wearing said Speedo's

                  Budgie = Budgerigar (educational linky)

                      Coworker of mine pointed out this deal to me today. There's a site you can get it for $25 less from but the customer service is highly regarded as total shit. Here's the link. It's pretty cool and a damn good price for what it is.

                          Some nieces and nephews of mine have already been warned, well, they already know to basically stay away from anywhere that has grass that isn't an active park. Perhaps a bit over the top, but better than the alternative.

                            I have a suspicion that a lot of people are going to ignore the dangers.

                              They should work with the company to make those areas not populate any pokemon etc.

                                I heard that there was a request for that but they declined to do so. Not sure how formal it was or just a media request not to encourage people to blow themselves up.

                                  Oh, I don't suspect they will, I know they will. I already know I'm going to be that grumpy old man yelling get off my lawn, the older I get, the more jaded my view of humanity.

                                    I wonder what the legal fallout is going to be. In the US it is encouraging people to trespass that is going to wind up in a lawsuit. In Bosnia it is going to be encouraging children to blow themselves up. That a video game was released that rewards kids for playing in mind fields is unbelievable.

                                      It's very difficult to sue the state in Bosnia, much more so than in the US, and even if you can, it's even more difficult to win.

                                        It's not the state that you sue in that case, but the state suing the video game maker.

                                          Oh, I see what you're saying, I completely mixed that up.The problem though too to consider with that is that neoliberal policies, even in the EU (being that they are in perspective member status), makes it easier for a company to sue a country, than a country to sue a company. It's pretty crazy.

                                            I am not one for witch hunts, but this really pissed me off. It looks like, from the reactions of the public, that she will definitely be getting what's coming to her for this. I hope the woman in the picture is strong enough to just brush it off.

                                            Dani Mathers has already lost her job and been banned from all 800 LA Fitness's. It will be interesting to see if it just stops at that...
