Region: Libertatem
Unfortunately though.. their WA is non exec.
but brition will cte any moment we need help when he does
Don't worry Mak, we got this situation under control.
Are y'all gonna refound?
I hope they do, brition is never coming back the biggest thing he might do is come back and kick the delegate from executive powers. I suggest we go in there and install mekeb so he can refound the region.
We are currently formulating a re-found plan as we speak. But there is little to worry about right now.
We're making a strong recovery from our population recession! Soon enough we'll be back at 100!
Une question. (French) What are your fondest childhood memories?
When I was about 5 I went on my first fishing trip with my great grandparents. We didn't catch anything so my great grandfather said I could feed the fish the bait worms. So I sat on the dock and stuck my feet in the water and started tearing up worms and feeding them to the sunfish. When suddenly one mistook my toe for a worm and nipped it.. lol It didnt hurt but I cried hard, my great grandfather would always laugh so hard when he thought about that story. I miss my great grandparents, wonderful people.
Aww, that's a good story.
I was 9. My father introduced Star Wars to me when I was younger so it always was and still is our thing. He took me to see Revenge of The Sith at the midnight showing and it was awesome. I got a sweet free giveaway poster from the theater that they threw around the crowds and I got one somehow. It was packed and an awesome experience. Then the next day(or rather later that day) he took me out and spent like $100 on Star Wars action figures for me and then we went golfing. It was an amazing day.
I LOVE STAR WARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Revenge of the Sith is the only decent Star Wars prequel. I remember when I saw it, when I was ten years old. It blew me away.
House defeats Obama budget 413-2
http://www.tpnn.com/2014/04/09/wow-house-defeats-obamas-budget-413-2/
President Obamas call for increased government spending has failed miserably. With a vote of 413-2, the presidents 2015 budget that called for increased government spending fueled by tax increases was soundly rejected by the House of Representatives on Wednesday.
The 2015 budget was largely considered to be rejected as it effectively served as a Democrat wish-list, a means of aiming high and whittling down. However, Wednesdays vote signals a thorough rejection of the fiscally irresponsible budget.
Obama offered his budget proposal a month late in March and it was met with a lack of interest from Democrats who are enduring the choppy waters in an election year complicated by the Obamacare disasters. With so much political capital tied up in Obamacare, the Democrats did not readily embrace the 2015 budget proposal that called for increased government spending and called for a breaking of an agreement between the House and the Senate with regards to discretionary spending.
The House vote was a staged vote that reflected Obamas 2015 budget proposal with Republican Rep. Mick Mulvaney a substitute amendment to the House GOP budget that reflected the presidents budget.
In 2012, Obamas budget was unanimously defeated in the House. In 2013, President Obamas budget came so late that the House didnt even vote at all on it.
Reps. Jim Moran of Virginia and Marcy Kaptur of Ohio were the two Democrats who voted for the plan.
The House will continue debating certain budget proposals as caucuses continue to offer budgets based on lofty goals. Obamas budget called for $3.14 trillion in government spending while the Congressional Black Caucus 2015 budget called for $3.26 trillion in government spending. The budget called for restoration of cuts to food stamps and extended unemployment insurance and was soundly defeated 116-300.
This Republican budget rigs the system so that only the children of the well-off and well-connected can get ahead, said Rep. Jim Clyburn
No love for Attack of The Clones? Honestly other than the stupid love story the action in that movie is awesome. I like how they explain the origins of the Stormtroopers with the clones of the awesomest character ever: Jango Fett. Star Wars Bounty Hunter is also my favorite Star Wars game just because of Jango. Well that band it's a pretty good game anyways. My personal ranking of Star Wars movies is this:
1.Empire Strikes Back
2.Attack of The Clones
3.Revenge of The Sith
4 A New Hope
5.Return of The Jedi
6. Star Wars The Clone Wars
7.Phantom Menace
That's right, I put the animated film higher than Phantom Menace. U WOT M8?
413-2 lols.
*and*
not band
Attack of the Clones is the worst, by far. I like Empire and Jedi equally. I don't even put the Clone Wars 'movie' on the list.
Not as bad as its unanimous defeat in 2012.
What in Dawkinss name did you just say about Star Wars Prequels, you insignificant plebeian? Id like to inform you that I won my local Dungeons and Dragons tournament, and I have orchestrated over 300 confirmed memeings. I am trained in medieval literature and I am the top Mountain Dew sculler in the entire world. You are nothing to me but just another meme victim. I will tip my fedora with precision the likes of which has never been seen at any anime convention, mark my damn words. You think you can get away with badmouthing me on the internet? Think again, noob. As we speak, I am having a group chat with my fellow admins, and your IP address is being traced right now so you better brace yourself for the storm that is coming, fool. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your swag. Youre done for, plebeian. I can be anywhere, any time, and I can tip my fedora in over seven hundred ways, and thats just with my right hand. Not only am I extensively trained in meme making, I also have full access to the arsenal of my middle schools role playing game club, and I will use it to its full extent to brutally meme your miserable being off the face of the earth, you uneuphoric child. If only you could have known what sort of retribution your clever little comment was about to bring down upon you. Maybe you would have held your tongue. But you couldnt, you didnt, and now you will pay the price, you goddamn idiot. I will pour Cool Ranch Doritos all over you and you will drown in it. Youre finished, punk.

Despite how hard he has tried, Obama has failed miserably at becoming 'The Democrats' Reagan'. The Gipper could unite people and understood that he had to compromise sometimes to get what he wanted. Obama has alienated half the nation and still insists on playing politics. In Reagan's fifth year the country was in the midst of a strong economic expansion and maintained strength abroad without compromising its principles. He used his charm and skill to persuade the Democratic Party to help him pass tax and regulatory reform and cut down the welfare state. Today, Obama's number-spinning lies can't mask the fact that millions of Americans have dropped out of the labour force and the welfare state has been expanded massively. His sole legislative achievement is built on an idea he pledged to fight against in 2008, and has succeeded only in turning even more people away from the idea of corporatised medicine. Obama spent his first two years with a Democratic Congress, making incremental gestures towards fulfilling his agenda and generally acting smug and lazy. When Clinton was given a Republican Congress, he worked with them, instead of sticking to some ridiculous quasi-ideological principles to imitate the opposite side of the isle. The Obama Presidency, so far, has been a resounding failure. Even Bush had more solid achievements than this.
BURN
I think it's ridiculous how some gun control advocates say "Well if people can own assault rifles then why can't they own nuclear weapons and ICBMs?"
Firearms and knives are designed so that their users are able to choose who they target with them, so they can be used effectively for self-defense rather than mindless indiscriminate killing. WMDs are built as weapons of mass murder. They are designed to terminate the lives of thousands of people in a given area. You can't program a nuke to kill some people and not others.
Firearms are tools of self-defense that can be controlled by mental impulses, but WMDs are haphazard killers, so are naturally unlawful and can never be used in any legitimate conflict situation without destroying the lives of noncombatants.
Did someone actually say this?
Post self-deleted by Pevvania.
My own mother, unfortunately. When I see her, we have frequent "debates" about gun control. Hers almost entirely stem from emotional "BUT WHO WILL PROTECT THE CHILDREN???" arguments.
So you're like Alex P. Keaton?
Ha ha, I guess you could say that! My mother likes to think of herself as "right-wing", but in reality she's your typical liberal, although a more centre-right one. My dad is more conservative, but he is also quite pragmatic, so he believes in the minimum wage and other ideas that we supposedly could not do without.
Yeah my Dad's a libertarian and my Mom's a democrat.
Talk about polarizing.
I am not a gun nut, I don't own any guns and I may have only shot one once, and that was not with real bullets. (not a bebe gun)
I would only require gun registration and a fair ammunition tax as a way to regulate guns, otherwise I prefer localities and states to regulate them as they see fit. As you may know I am from the suburban north where there is a lot of crime and domestic stuff, so I can't see complete legalization happening here, perhaps a bit, but not fully.
On the gun debate.
Haha yeah.
What Does Everybody here think about Capitol Punishment?
I agree with it personally.
A gun registry would make for the government easily tracking each and every gun with ease, and isn't ammo expensive enough as it is?
It amazes me that all 50 states have concealed carry laws. If that can happen, then there's hope yet.
I'm in favor of it.
Proportional punishment is the way to go. Capital punishment should only be an option if the offence is murder, and if the victim permits it.
Revenge of the Sith
Return of the Jedi
Phantom Menace
Attack of the Clones
A New Hope
The Empire Strikes back
WUT
I'm no party.
My dad's no party
Mom is REpublican.
That and Treason No one Betrays America! Murica!
This conversation again.....No. It's terrible.
Speaking of Capital Punishment for Treason what about TTA.
This is an extremely dangerous concept, since those who define treason are most often men in power - the most treasonous parasites of all.
The only reason you are still here is not good enough for you to go spouting off. I think we can all agree that no one here wants to listen to what you have to say.
I will be on for another hour, then I will not be available at all until Sunday afternoon. Miencraft is interim Chairman until then. He will assume all responsibilities.
Okay since returning to this region I have done, said or happened upon anything rude.....How about you be quiet.
Or how about you leave Benedict Arnold!
Because Britain Exiled me for I think 24 more hours now....
So why do you just come here? why cant you hang in UCR or something?
Cause....I'm.......Hmm...Ermm...
I'm a little puzzled why someone who left a region in a rage, calling all its inhabitants libertarian racists and fascists, would return expecting everything to be fine.
You have not one supporter here.
>:(
Empire is the best one, followed by A New Hope. Attack of the Clones, Revenge of the Sith, and Return of the Jedi are all tied. And, of course, The Phantom Menace is the worst one.
He's right, TTA. I was at least willing to defend you until you took the liberty of saying not a one of us promoted, well, liberty.
And I care why? I'm simply sitting here for another....let's see Maybe four hours....
You can't just use this region as a place to squat because you were ignorant enough to be banned from another region. It would be in your best interest to leave.
And what would you do? My best interest is to sit here without being talked to for another 4 hours or so...
Or you can get out now.

What is up with everyone's weird Star Wars rankings... It's clearly:
1. Empire and Jedi (tied)
3. A New Hope
4. Revenge of the Sith
5. The Phantom Menace
6. Attack of the Clones
7. Piss-poor Expanded Universe canon
But why come here? I thought we were libertarian fascists?
Under the agreement of the Attorney General and the President, I will bring a vote to the Board to have The Time Alliance permanently banned from Libertatem for treason. Under normal circumstances we would have a trial, but as the accused renounced his Citizenship, he will not be given the opportunity to defend himself. The Board will simply vote on the RMB. While, I will not be available this weekend, in the event the vote is a two-two tie, mine will be the tie-breaker. I am, of course, in favor of permanent banning. Chairman Miencraft will be the one to authorize the President to carry out the sentence, whatever it may be.
Return could have been better; I feel as though having a second Death Star and a planet of fuzzy bears was some sort of cop-out.
The best thing about the best movie - Empire - is that it wasn't directed solely by Lucas. Kershner was the genius behind making the middle installment the dark, yet engaging one.
As for why I put Attack of the Clones as high as I did...the acting (with the obvious exceptions of Portman and Christiansen) was the most believable of the prequels, the action scenes were excellent but not over-the-top, and it wasn't as depressing as Revenge.
I don't know how a movie with one of the greatest plot twists of all time is the least best Star Wars movie?! And how does Phantom Menace beat out Attack of The Clones?! EXPLAIN THYSELF!
You too Pev with Phantom Menace beating out Attack of The Clones?! Just how! I mean, Liam Neeson is an obvious plus, but the worst film sin of all time, Jar-Jar Binks is part of that movie. Other than the stupid love story Attack is why better.
And way to be a Star Wars fun die and put the originals in front of the prequels. Both trilogies had problems, but don't discount the prequels man! Jedi is way weaker of a film than New Hope also. Like seriously, the largest and most feared military force in the galaxy is defeated by Teddy Bears? That right there is total BS.
fundie* not fun die lol
I like All of them This is just the order in which i like them. Although 2 and 1 could be swaped.
Ya it is like the US being Defeated by Canada.
Then again We were Teddy bears compared to the British.
Exactly my point
Ok but the Ewoks were literally Teddy bears. Stormtroopers had guns and they were beaten by sticks and rocks, and 3 humans with guns. That doesn't even make sense.
I will ask the Board for a three-month ban rather than a permanent ban if TTA is found to be worthy of the region's graces. Even after everything we have witnessed at his hand. If he wishes to defend himself, so be it. But, now that I have pressed charges (the right of any citizen of Libertatem) I will leave it to the AG and the Board. I have a trip to Indy to take and won't be on until Sunday.
My favorite star wars movie:
No way dude that's my favorite too
Lol, given your previous responses i'd say otherwise =P
I think i'm the only person alive who does not like any of George Lucas' films..
Not even the Indiana Jones series?
We now return you to our Elder Scrolls themed programming.
Up next: You, Me, and Jauffre
Nope. I tried... his movies just don't grab my attention. He's a talented man don't get me wrong... I just don't find the stories enioyable.
I did beta testing for ESO... It was kinda boring, but definitely a good game for the story.
Maybe we should consider banning you , this is just as treasonous
Banning someone for not liking Lucas Movies?
I'm all for banning anyone who doesn't put Empire in the number one slot.
And then we'll ban you for questioning our reasoning for banning
lol
I watched Indiana jones as a little kid basically whenever I could And I think it shaped a fair amount of my personality. Indie rocks.
The stories of literally every Indiana Jones movie apart from the second one could have been done without him.
I'm in the middle of drafting the Codifying Overt Utilities of the Regional Tribunal (COURT) Act that will clearly define the powers of the judiciary.
Neat.
Ill have you banned for considering banning me! ;)
Anyone here watch any of Stefan Molyneux's videos?
I don't know if that's really fair, it's definitely debatable which is the best.
What does that even mean in terms of the movies being good? And the movies are about him, so every film's plot wouldn't even happen without him. I'm searching for logic here but I keep coming up empty handed.
I love the Indy movies, but in every film but The Temple of Doom, the artefact being searched for is deadly to all who attempt to unlock its secrets. In the first, third and fourth films the bad guys are killed by the Ark, Holy Grail and Crystal Skulls, and would have died even if Indy wasn't in the films.
Yes. Some of his stuff is very good.
I especially like what he says about the government and "free evil".
We're all a little quiet today, it seems. I'll be busy tomorrow (doing a 3-mile run), so the COURT Act will likely be presented as a draft on Monday.
Assembled with Dot's Region Saver.
