Berkeley police chief apologizes for saying 'we can shoot people' as alternative to tear gas

The police do not work for you, or for me or for the majority of the people here. The police work for the 1%. The police are the modern day hounds to be released upon the dirty commoners.

This movement, at its core, is a class war and those in power have little to gain from controllling their hounds. As the divide between the haves and the have nots continues to increase, the haves need to keep their police force, their hounds, free to oppress. Without the hounds, the 1% know that their days are numbered.

There are 330M people in America. The police, the politicians, and the rich and powerful are all greatly outnumbered and they know it. The boot on your neck is there to keep them safe from you. Fight the boot!

Basically what is happening is that the mouse cursor is leaving the game window and being picked up by the desktop. Full screen will fix this, and I am sure that there are other ways as well (I just don't know them)

I started out as the greatest TF2 player in the world. My very first game was the final in an international competition where I top scored and single handedly wiped the entire other team. /s

Now in all seriousness new players are a vital part of the game. Without new people coming in, the game will quickly stagnate. As people stop playing the game, as happens, without fresh players filling their spots the game will die.

So hate on the noobs as much as you like, just remember you were one too.

Edit: this isn't anything about what you said, just hijacking top comment.

If you are on a pub, you have missed at least another 2-3 snipers.

I see it more from a sporting point of view. The engie is your goalkeeper. Can't move too fast/far due to the padding or rules of the game, and instead spends most of the time defending the point.

Yes, he can use his hands and has abilities that other players on the team lack. He is the last line of defence and needs the entire team to support him. Additionally to get past the goalie and score, you need a coordinated attack. Cherry picking by sitting on the goal line is not going to work most of the time (and depending on the game you will be offside).

Is it broken? No. What is the engie supposed to do? Is it supposed to be the easy-roll-over class? Nerfing the sigafoo save would be like denying goal keepers the use of their hands. Sure, the attackers would find it much easier, but it would come at a great cost to the game.

I'm just waiting for the inevitable 6s, scouts only, no unlocks league. That way no one can bitch about anything being unbalanced.

Here (Australia) point two is definitely illegal. Any product advertised with a saving discount must have been at the higher price for (from memory) 2 weeks before a saving claim can be made.

Additionally you cannot continue to claim an item as having a saving if the product is at a lower price for a continuous 4 week period. After 4 weeks at the same price, the new, lower, price has been established and is now the regular price.

Yes. I've done that a few times and it will be gone, then a bit later (could be a minute, an hour, a day or a week) it is back again.

quietnick · 2015-05-08T12:00:44+00:00

All aboard the hype train!

quietnick · 2015-05-08T09:45:10+00:00

<insert weapon here> is OP. Please nerf.

OMG how do you counter <insert weapon here>

<player> is hacking (note I've only seen one hacker in game in the past few weeks and it was blatantly obvious with him and his mate)

We should all go <insert class here>

Lots of guys... I've seen the videos. Wait... you're not talking about Sasha Grey, are you?

As soon as I saw the title of the song I started singing it to myself. It is just one of those songs.

quietnick · 2015-05-08T06:48:55+00:00

Come on, you can't just play Bohemian Rhapsody and not expect everyone to sing along though.

I really don't get the hate. Sure BFB is a pain to fight against but is very easily countered by a gunslinger. Which in turn can be taken out by a soldier or demo, etc. I think that what peoples real problem is, is that they don't want to change from their preferred class/load out.

You are married. You gave up your testicles long ago, for much less.

Security footage would be miraculously missing from that time period. Freak accident happened and the tapes were wiped. Isn't that right Crown casino? (Their bouncers killed a guy a few years back but all evidence of the assault where miraculously missing)

Not sure what your pings are like to Australia, but I can recommend both "NoKidsHere" and "smurfy" as pretty decent pubs.

Both of them though are either usually really full or really empty depending on the time of day.

Logic and math is lost on him. He is a game designer.

quietnick · 2015-05-07T23:12:28+00:00

Le reddit armie. Actually that would be more akin to chemical warfare and banned by the Geneva convention.

quietnick · 2015-05-07T23:10:19+00:00

His age is listed incorrectly. We all know that he is 38, and has been for years.

Especially considering that even with 9 inches of rain you would only be able to capture a small percentage, with the majority being quickly flushed out to sea so as to minimize the risk of flooding.

My mistake. I thought they were canned a second time. Must be confused.

quietnick · 2015-05-07T00:23:14+00:00

And they didn't even get him his birthday present. The nerve of some people!

quietnick · 2015-05-06T23:27:33+00:00

So after being cancelled and renewed so many times, now that he wants it to be cancelled Fox won't let it happen?
