Crap - my picks!
Been working a ton, sometimes get behind on this stuff....

Thus game: Didn't even watch it, but had it picked as CIN as 90%+ of the nation also had them picked, not a big deal. (All picks at Beat The Insiders).

Lots of upset picks this week - shit gets weird right before the playoffs. My fantasy teams are dead, and my home team is hanging by a thread - this is when I turn to other teams to watch great football, but have lost a fair amount of caring for the last few weeks....

CHI (upset), IND (upset, but HOU doesn't need another win, may bench players), DEN, MIA (throw away game), WASH (needs a win), TB, NYG, SEA, CAR, DET, OAK, PIT, SF, TEN.

SO many weird games and not knowing how each team will do when they only have two to six wins. Either I am going ot kill it this week, or only get four wins.....

I am currently 131-78, right up there with the pundits and actually do better than 80% of them.

You flee, you run from police, there is a pretty high chance you will be killed.

No, that's if you're running from terrible police. The firearm is not the goto law enforcement tool, it is the last resort. And if I'm ever in a position where police are chasing AND FIRING at me, I'm not going to stop and say, "hey, please stop shooting at me." Use of deadly force has long been a serious issue with the Cleveland PD and this last incident finally seems to be bringing the water to a boil.

And I think you know well enough I don't hate police. I just hate how low police officer standards have fallen. It's a thankless, often dangerous job, and it isn't attracting the quality of people such an important position deserves. I'm starting academy in January in Akron. I should hope if I get through and wind up on the streets the least I can do is not kill unarmed civilians.

None of us want to kill "unarmed civilians" but that is information found out later. The liability test falls somewhere in the area of "what would a reasonable person do" in the given situation.

I can't speak for Cleveland - in fact I can't speak for damn near any large city. They are to big and when you have thousands, literally THOUSANDS of cops. You have bad ones. Period.

I am happy to work for a great department with great training (I am a firearms instructor, rifle Armour, range master, and simmunitions instructor) and we have had a few shoots in our history and they have all been very clean cut. We don't go firing at vehicles. You are responsible for every bullet that leaves your gun. You don't want it to be a million dollars a bullet when you start letting the lead fly....

There is an old (not really a joke) joke about chases in St. Paul back in the day. No one wanted to be the first squad, cause all the other cops were on the side of the road taking shots at the fleeing vehicle. Needless to say, that isn't done anymore....

Not justifying the shoot - I am sure there are problems with it, and I don't know anything about it. But, you hear sirens and see lights? Pull over. That is what a reasonable person does. End of story. Anything that happens AFTER that while not complying? Is solely on the backs of the person fleeing.

RAGE was a major let down for me and seemed to be an insult to most PC gamers and id fans.

Some of you posted that you really liked it, but needed to go back and finish it.........it couldn't have been all that good if you weren't inspired to finish it.; I certainly wasn't. Just a thought......

You see my games list? I rarely finish games in a timely manner. I have video game ADD.

Maybe it should come down to it's ok for anyone to keep a handgun/shotgun/rifle in the house but it has to be hard as hell to get a carry and conceal permit and very heavy prison sentences for anyone who breaks it. At the very least their should be psych tests for psychopathic tendencies. I'm considering switching careers and joining customs and if you don't pass the psych tests you don't get hired.

You can own any guns in your home, as long as it meets federal requirements. Ie: no silencers without a license, no fully auto, etc. Unless you are a convicted felon. We take guns out of houses on a regular basis after a domestic. They then have to fight the system and judge to get them back.

It isnt "easy" to get a carry permit in Minnesota. But it isnt hard either. You can't be convicted of a violent crime, domestic, felony etc. The downside to that, is even without a perimt, it is only a misdemeanor to carry a gun (no jail time, don't give up the gun) and a 25.00 fine. But it isn't those people I worry about. It is the 10x offender that is going to carry a gun no matter what, and they aren't punished for it when we catch them.

Make the punishment fit the crime.

Oh, and Cleveland is still reeling in the aftermath of a recent police auto chase during which one officer fired his weapon ~40 times. The fleeing driver and passenger

Why didn't they pul over and stop? Seems weird. You flee, you run from police, there is a pretty high chance you will be killed.

I can shoot all 38 of my rounds in less than 15 seconds.....it isn't a number of bullets issue, it is a time issue.

A rifle is a rifle. DOesn't matter if it is a hunting rifle or AR15. If you try and get rid of "assault rifles" you need to get rid of everything, just isn't goin got happen.

It isn't about guns. It is about control. It isn't about guns it is about people. Lets not blame the tool, lets put the focus on the person. I grew up aruond guns (in south dakota it was still ok to have a loaded gun in a gun rack in your truck) and this stuff never happened. It is a bigger issue than guns. It is a society issue. Violent offenders are accepted and released after very short terms.

Anyway. You won't get our guns.

It's not a gun issue, it's a what drives people to the point they snap and do this issue? Plenty of countries around the world with plenty of guns and they don't have these problems which are all too common in the US. Hell, did you see any of the other insanity going around the US today? Some woman randomly shot just for opening her door. Two guys after an argument with the neighbors came over and set 4 people on fire killing them. 2 convicts were arrested in a plot to kill Justin Bieber for a buddy of theirs in prison for the strangulation and rape of a 15 year old girl. They were going to strangle Bieber and then castrate him. And it goes on and on and on.

While this insane sort of shit does occur other places from time to time, it doesn't happen with near the frequency or scale as it does in the US. What is it that makes it happen there more than anywhere else? Dollars to donuts it'll come out that this guy thought he was doing the children a mercy by saving them from the horrors to come in this world. There will likely be some religious angle involved too.

A study was done and these mall/school shootings are happening because the media is making a big deal about it. Quit putting their face on TV and people will quit doing it to be famous.

I find all of the complaints a little funny.

It is first person Diablo. How many times did you have to paly through Diablo to get good shit? I have played through at least 10x on d1 and d2, and I still don't have the best gear.

Then the PSN release isn't for you, is it? It's for a new generation of gamers, on a new console, because they didn't play it when it came out.

The "new generation" of gamers isn't going to appreciate it....
