When Pev comes to America we shall have a real life RLP Party Party. I call it being in Indiana!

My moms revolver is the only thing that stands between us and criminals in my neighborhood.

How does anyone even.

I actually plan on bypassing all the stupid redtape in this state for guns and just go to the medieval fair this year and pick me up a sword.

Yay exceptions. Come to think of it, it's probably totally legal to just build a crossbow or something in my garage. Hm.

Oh, and remind me to move out of this state as soon as I can. I honestly don't know why I've stayed here so long.

Blue states like California,New York and Illonis are awful. They also have High Shooting rates with very Restrictive gun laws.

Don't split the libertarian vote then any more than necessary. Already the Pauls pretty much take away a lot of people who could otherwise be voting for the LPUSA. Instead, form a caucus. The only way we can rationally put a wedge into the two party system is to unite, as populistic as that might sound.

You got a deal =P

People don't vote Libertarian Party because they fear that the LP can never win. they want their vote to count in one direction.

That is absolutely nonsense. Your vote doesn't statistically change anything whether you vote Republican, Democrat, or Libertarian. If you vote Democrat and a Republican is elected, your vote is thrown out anyway, particularly since it the people do not "really" decide on the president in the end. The real game changer is getting enough votes for the Libertarian Party to make it into the debates, which would be a big enough victory as it would rock the very foundation of the two party system.

Otherwise America is held at hostage with religious bigots on one end and arrogant liberal elitists on the other, all whose perceptions on bettering society and democracy screw over different groups of people and individuals.

Got to go to the NRA meeting in Indy for the Congressman this weekend. It was literally one of the best feelings of my life.

Even furthermore because of the outdated and absolutley pointless Electoral College, our votes really don't even count. They're just suggestions. It should be called "Suggestion Day" because that's basically what it is. 3 times in history have Americans voted for someone by majority but because of the disproportionate and retarded electoral college we got someone for president who isn't even the majority. That isn't even fair, AT ALL.

I was noting on the lack of intellectual supporting detail to you rebuttals, and how your opinions might be received much more amicably if you were to rationalize them beforehand.

Lightsabers are the strait up tightest weapon out there. I would select a blue crystal and probably use Obi Wan's hilt since he is my favorite Jedi. But honestly I'd probably be a sith for the coolest force power out there: force lightning.

Well, if you knew Star Wars, you'd know that you don't just walk into a shop and select which light saber crystal you want. I, on the other hand would certainly like to sit on the Jedi Council, and, if I had the choice, wield a two light sabers.

Also, everyone knows that Exar Kun is the greatest Sith Lord.

Never did get that into Star Wars.

Lightsaber crystals can be found in various kiosks and retailers across the galaxy, but are often very rare and extremely expensive. Almost all lightsaber crystals are found in the caves of Illum.

Exar Kun is legendary, but I personally prefer Naga Sadow, the first and greatest Dark Lord of the Sith.

Yeah what he said about crystals.

Exar Kun is a n00b. While his combat is impressive in many ways, his downfall is using a stupid saber-staff. Sure power attacks are stronger, but saber-staffs are just so inconvenient and greatly limit the number of moves you can use. I think a lot of sith could easily beat him. If I ever used a saber-staff I'd probably hit myself within the first 30 seconds of use.

Another person who uses a really unorthodox and inconvenient fighting style is Starkiller and his clone. I have no idea why you would hold your sabers upside down. That's even more limiting than using a saber-staff. I guess that's really only the way he holds them while not fighting though and after the first few strikes I'm pretty sure he switched to traditional styles of combat. He could beat Exar Kun no doubt in my mind. Having amazing force abilities helps too. I wonder how unstoppable General Greivous would have been if he had force powers? Or regenerating arms or something wow.

I would probably use 2 sabers also, FYI.

Congratulations on another term, Pevvania.

Ronald Reagan And Rick Grimes wrote:Exar Kun is a n00b.

Exar Kun is the biggest n00b. Know who isn't a n00b? Darth Nihilus. He was a devourer of worlds, for Palpatine's sake. Yeah, he ended up getting killed by a n00b, but he was still a bad man to mess with. Another BAMF was Jaster Mereel. Too bad he was gunned down. That always brings my day down.

Well, Exar Kun certainly isn't a "n00b" especially when compared to Starkiller. And how you speak of his combat skills, I've come to believe that you're rather confused as to who exactly he is. He was by far much more of a sorcerer than a combatant.

I'd say a little bit of both. Jaster Mereel's death hit me hard for a fictional character.

Obviously "n00b" was used in a non serious manner in case you didn't catch on.

He's a n00b because he was betrayed and was defeated by a wall of light. Srsly? That is really n00bie for the "Greatest Dark Lord of The Sith" to die.

I'm definitely going to check it out.

Speaking of Star Wars novels, has anyone read the Republic Commando series? I read it all the way through Order 66, and I honestly have no interest in reading the Imperial installments.

I'd rather serve in the Republic Army during the Clone Wars. I think it would just be a cooler war to be a part of. My favorite clone commanders are Rex and Fox.

I thought Rex was one of the strongest characters added to the universe by the "Clone Wars" show and movie. I'm sad that that show is over now. I was an avid viewer from the beginning.
