  1. I see the conspiracy theorists have jumped on the bandwagon around the net bang on time with some very flamboyant claims whilst hiding behind their keyboard stirring up theories despite not having concrete knowledge of the events. It only takes one speculative comment and suddenly everything gets twisted and misconstrued as it multiplies and spirals into more outlandish tales. Seems to be the same people who said the Boston bombing was a performance of a smoke grenades, fake blood and a cast of paraplegic actors. Whilst there is a lot of bullshit in the world and things we don't know and are within our rights to be suspicious about; I find some of these remarks online extremely disrespectful and offensive. Even the father who spoke bravely after hearing his son got gunned down was branded an actor as his son was taken into hiding. Can't people just accept this happened the way it did and there is no ulterior motive behind the tragedy? I don't even want to mention the tragic events of Sandy Hook and what was spoken about that. It may be early days in the investigation but this wasn't some upper echelon farce to manipulate and engineer laws. It's a common tragedy and this happen in this day and age around the world every day.
  2. Zlaaaaaaataaan He's good he is
  3. I thought they already did Jeez I thought Vettel pissing it last year was boring but this season is a forgone conclusion already it seems!
  4. Killing Floor £2.99 Co-op zombie shooter similar to Left For Dead.
  5. ^well said Megan. We of course don't know whether his actions are also that caused of the illness or if he was fully aware of what he was doing. Many unfit to plead/insane murderers are acquitted due to hearing voices or believing that a unknown force was controlling their body. Many murderers/serial killers also get assessed and find there was no underlying mental defect that caused them to carry out their actions. Not all murderers are therefor classed as mentally ill or if their killing was a result of the illness. Many murderers usually have some form of personality disorder or mental disorder but it doesn't make them insane in their actions.
  6. I think the underlying problem here is the allowance of someone with mental health issues to own a gun. Having such a weapon can increase the risk to themselves and others. These should have been confiscated until he was determined fit post-treatment. Regardless of the gun issue; he still stabbed 3 people first so perhaps the systematic failure is not just gun control but allowing him in society. Sure he was recently assessed but considering how stretched the services are and how everyone seems to be all treated the same when mentally ill; more detail needs to go into ensuring the well-being of the person and others around them. It'll be interesting to see what his doctors and the officers who visited say in their reports and whether this incident could have been prevented. His mental state could have deteriorated severely in recent days or perhaps he was able to hide his real intentions and mask everything as fine. Allowing him a gun is very irresponsible under the circumstances for me and this needs to be addressed.
  7. That sucks! I said Madrid would win and I was right I knew I should have put something on Bale to score going into extra time. It was almost inevitable it would happen and it did. Didn't see 4-1 coming though
  8. He's probably had everything laid out on a plate for him his whole life and hasn't had to work or put any effort into getting things he wanted. Perhaps a bit of a culture shock when ladies didn't fall head over heals for him and he didn't get what he wanted.
  9. The XP boosts work with DXP but don't ask me to do the maths! I wish I had a 200% one right now as I'd fly through the ranks in minutes
  10. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-27562917 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8ZEjruo5eI https://www.youtube.com/user/ElliotRodger/videos This is gonna further fuel the gun control debate. Personally I don't think it's wise that someone who is being treated for mental health illnesses to have custody of guns regardless if they are owned legally. They should have been confiscated particularly under the advice of family and after his recent alarming behavior. A tragedy for all parties involved. I don't know what the mental health services are like in the US but here in the UK; they are desperately underfunded and many homegrown murder-suicide incidents still occur with disorders being a proven factor in the reports. It's a tough subject and lessons will be learned but each person and incident has to be based on its own merit. Taking away his guns still wouldn't have prevented the stabbings and after being assessed by deputies; they were operating in their remit to allow him to remain in the community after no immediate threat was identified up on a recommended visit. This will be scrutinised to buggery no doubt. Elliott Rodger could have easily gone on a knife-wielding rampage alternatively and perhaps done more damage than with the guns in an area so the guns can't be entirely to blame but the bottom line is his risk to the public would be greater enhanced with them. If his family suspected he was a threat in which they did alert police; should they have taken steps for his safety and brought him home and does this fly-by visit by deputies work effictively? They are doing what is asked and although they determined no threat; it was wrong. I don't believe they were to blame as Rodger could have conned them and I firmly believe they did their work under the correct criteria laid out in such circumstances. Perhaps incidents like this are completely non-preventable and more needs to be done for people with mental health issues and quicker also particularly if they demonstrate the alarming behaviour Elliott did in the 24 hours before his rampage. I think they need to address gun ownership with people who are at, or pose a future risk i.e the mentally unstable but overall; is this a failure of many parties or just something that could happen to anyone, anywhere?
  11. Can't argue with the result after seeing the stats:
  12. If you had said to me in the 92nd minute that Real would win 4-1; I would have phone an ambulance for you Fair play to Real; they did boss the game. Bale was poor but I'm pleased he scored. Marcelo was on another level tonight and he thoroughly deserved his goal. Ronaldo was below par but he engineered a lot of the play from the second half onwards. Modric was also solid in the center. Diego Simeone is a prize cock so I was glad he had a hissy fit at the end. Athletico have had a superb season and they did play well tonight for the first hour but it was just way over their heads in the end. 4-1 was a bit flattering but Real too their few chances in open play.
  13. Wow going into ET in the final. Thought Athletico played really well and defending solid all game but Real just turned the tide for the last 20. I think they'll go on to win now and the best Athletico can hope for is seeing out penalties. Real haven't been at their best and Ronaldo and Bale have been fairly below standard but they should be looking to up the ante in extra time. Diego Simeone; time is a great healer but he'll always be a cheating Argie bastard
  14. Bugger, 10 man QPR beat Derby 1-0 in the last minute
  15. Destiny alpha 3rd of June Not sure who this will be open to though - maybe a small select of beta owners.
  16. PSG looking to snap up Eden Hazardous now. Be really shocked if Chelsea let him go although Mourinho seems pissed at him and Oscar despite them being their bets players last season. There's me thinking PSG were under the cosh with UEFA of the FFP rules and now they could blow £100m in a few days.
  17. Finally some gameplay (although not much) of this exclusive PS4 game http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8pl3aVnsyE&src_vid=m1EWKYvlWus&feature=iv&annotation_id=annotation_1233240987 I'm intrigued but not overly excited for this. Hope to see more at E3 though
  18. David Luiz done deal £40m http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/27553042
  19. HOVER BIKE 3D PRINTER RIFLE (YES THAT'S A 3D PRINTER GUN) PLASMA RIFLE (OH DEAR, NOT VERY COOL OF DOOZY) EXO SUIT SOME WEIRD FLYING THING
  20. Shame there ain't more info on this game as it looks pretty damn intriguing. Another one to keep my eye on and I hope they make E3 with it.
  21. Good idea doing it that way as it worked well for Titanfall on PC by saving the aggro of everyone downloading on launch day. I think 99.9% of people will be buying a physical copy of the game so it wont really matter but it's nice to see them being sensible in streamlining the service for the people who are buying it digitally.
  22. Dave Louise for £40m is scandalous. £40 would still be considered a ripoff even in today's inflated transfer market. Patricia Evera signs a 1 year deal at Man Yoo too. Champions League and Championship finals tomorrow - can't wait! Dunno who I want to win the European Cup but just want to see a quality game. Hope Derby beat Dirty Harry's QPR though.
  23. I haven't - to be honest, I didn't even know there was one
  24. How did I miss this from last year; it's class!
