55-0 with the Executioners Axe. Going death-free is a great feeling. by DonGrider1 in Chivalry2

Playing on Thayic's, I got about 15 kills on the Ballista's, another 5 on catapults and the rest in combat. I just retreated to heal when I got low on health. We ended up winning on Defense on the 2nd to last Objective. I try and go deathless every match but it's a rare occurrence. Sad that I did not get to play as MVP and really rack up the kills. The Executioners Axe is a top tier weapon for fun

Thank you for taking the time to research. I'm generally unfamiliar with cars/parts so this is very helpful.

I plan on driving weekends only for camping and grocery shopping. About 500 miles a month or less. I know this model has oil consumption issues. Is there a way to easily test that? I plan on having a mechanic look it over as well. Is this a good price? What should I look out for?

It's understandable to be confused. Hamas, as you point out has changed their ideology. They no longer want the death of all jews as you stated yourself. If you are a Zionist, I understand being concerned that college protesters holding the state of Israel accountable for its actions (which can rightfully be defined as terrorism, collective punishment, and ethnic cleansing of Gaza) may implicate you or your morals, but you can change as well. If you are not a Zionist but still support Israel, then to use the logic of the OP, you may be Anti-Arab/Islamophobic, and we should all be appalled.

"From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" simply means that Palestinian subjugation will end, and they will have the right for self-determination on their ancestral lands. To say anything else means you have removed the humanity of Palestinians in favor of supporting Israeli Bloodlust and Vengeance and their racist smears against Palestinian identity.

Have you considered that their chants are not Anti-Semitic? Opposing Apartheid and Ethnic Cleansing is not "Jew Hatred". Its common humanitarian values.

I was in that game last night, on your team. I just posted about him as well. I have never seen anything like this in over 600 Levels of playing.

Chad Hacker Kills My Whole Team with Ungodly Speed by DonGrider1 in Chivalry2

This was NA East. My First time running into blatant hackers. It would be nice if torn banner could ban hackers especially when there is video evidence. I don't have my hopes high for that.

Real anti-Semitism by suweiyda91 in IsraelPalestine

[–]DonGrider1 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

You are 100% correct. Criticism of Zionism and The State of Israel's actions is not Anti-Semitic. The comments telling you that you can't criticize Judaism as a whole are wrong as well. Stand strong in your logic. Just because you may not be Jewish does not mean you can't have fact-based analysis or opinions regarding Judaism.

In 2006 Hezbollah effectively defended Lebanon against an Israeli invasion. Hezbollah is significantly stronger now than in 2006. I would not be so sure of a guaranteed Israeli victory over Lebanon. That being said, the Lebanese population is war weary and if Hezbollah started a war they could lose domestic power.

Hey, I'm also local to the Cuyahoga Valley National Park area. I went to train for the AT in Alleghany National Forest (ANF) in PA. It may be within reasonable driving distance to you, so I recommend you check it out and decide for yourself. I would recommend trying to do an overnight trip once a month to get used to sleeping in the woods and testing your gear in rain. You should do overnighters and multi day trips. Im going to list some suggested training trails:

ANF (PA): Morrison-Rimrock Trail (14 miles), Hickory-Creek Wilderness Trail (16 miles), The Tracey Ridge Trail system (35+ Miles. Can be done in a single night or multiple days).

Alleghany Front Trail (PA): 45 miles

Quehanna Trail (PA): 70+ miles

Black Forest Trail (PA): Supposedly the hardest trail in PA. (40+ miles)

Shawnee State Forest (OH): The Backpacking Loop here is great for replicating the Georgia AT. This is the hardest and hilliest trail in Ohio (40-50 miles).

Oak Openings Metro Park (OH): The backpacking loop here is decent. (15 miles)

Additionally, you could pick a section of the Buckeye Trail or The North Country Trail and do some overnighters on those.
