In Canada gun ownership is not a right guaranteed by the constitution. It is a privilege. If the government decided to take guns away we will be #@$&* out of luck. If the government decided to go the way of Austrailia, gun nuts would temper tantrum like little toddlers and the guns would be rounded up. The US is a different animal. The 2nd amendment was an addition to the constitution that lawmakers decided was needed years and years and years ago. The change made then is celebrated but proposed changes made today cannot be done because reasons. Let's also remember that there is language that often gets omitted when people talk about the 2nd.

I can understand the need to separate the two when the TV series was a season or two in and people wanted to talk about the red wedding. However, now that the series has "caught up" and is veering from the books it is not like book readers have any major spoilers hanging over the heads of non readers. About the only spoilers would relate to some of the cliffhangers that populate the end of A Dance \with Dragons. It seems like those final spoilers will be dealt with by the end of this season. And since when do people not talk about what MAY happen in a show. This season, book readers will finally have very few "spoilers" hanging over the heads of watchers.

The Official European Football (Soccer) Thread
thedestroyerofworlds replied to Scottish⑦Canuck's topic in Off-Topic General
Here is to hoping that RVP's career year was a one off and he reverts back to the guy who averaged 9 goals and less than 30 games a year. Go Gunners -

If you want to see what may happen to Strikeforce, look no further than the WEC. They will keep the two seperate until existing fighter contracts with Strikeforce are done. Once that happens it will be "easier" for them to "clean house" and merge the two, or turn SF into the "minor league". Money talks and BS walks, whichever makes Zuffa the most money will be the direction they go, period.

They have them because their athletic commisions interpret the Criminal Code "different". It all stems from the CC law that lits sports that can be sactioned making the events legal. MMA is not "listed" and some (see Ontario) take it literally --> meaning MMA is illegal. The law they state is ANCIENT.

http://www.sportsnet.ca/mma/2010/02/17/ontario_mma/ Look at this BS. What BS. I guess they are waiting until New York regulates MMA, then Ontario will bring UFC to the big smoke. All this because of an ancient law regarding "prize fighting". What a joke.

I thought that Sportsnet was going to show it, but it probably won't be on as early as on spike (I'm guessing here since the showed the shows on sportsnet later in the evening that when spike aired them)

He does............. Does Matt Sera ring a bell???? That is the only way that he gets the win. Otherwise, it's GSP all the way!!!!

I can see the Kimbo similarities with Brock, only difference is he has fought some REAL OPPOSITION. Overhyped, somewqhat, but somewhat legit.

Really??, Garcia, Flutie, Moon. What about Cam Wake who will be in the NFL next year. I hate how CFl hates keep pointing this out, but if you were a good player where would you want to play? In the league with BILLIONS of $$$$$$$ in revenue, or a smaller, second-tier league. If the CFL had SIMILAR revenue, then the calibre of players in the league WOULD GO UP. Compairing the CFL to the NFL is like compairing apples to oranges. They are both fruit, taste different, are different. If you are a REAL fruit lover, you appreciate them BOTH. It's the same kind of argument between MMA and Boxing. Don't bash something just because you don't like it. There are plenty of people who like it, and enjoy watching it.
