Arizona marches to the beat of its own drummer. But if that drummer gets upset and starts hollering on the Internet, he might get tossed in the clink.
After spending years targeting illegal aliens, the Grand Canyon State is turning its sights on obnoxious Internet users (commonly called 'trolls'). A new update to the state's telecommunications harassment bill could make the practice of harassing people online illegal.
Arizona House Bill 2549 has already passed both of the state's legislative bodies and is currently sitting on the desk of Governor Jan Brewer. While there's a lot in there that doesn't concern trolling, here's the line that has people worried:
It is unlawful for any person, with intent to terrify, intimidate, threaten, harass, annoy or offend, to use ANY ELECTRONIC OR DIGITAL DEVICE and use any obscene, lewd or profane language or suggest any lewd or lascivious act, or threaten to inflict physical harm to the person or property of any person.
Violators could be charged with a Class 1 misdemeanor and face up to 6 months in jail. If electronic devices are used to stalk someone, the charges then become a Class 3 felony, with penalties ranging from a minimum sentence of two and a half years in jail for non-dangerous offenders with no prior record to 25 years.
At the heart of the bill is an anti-bullying agenda. Cyber-bullying has been on the rise in recent years and has been in the news lately. A 2010 report in The New York Times found that one of out five middle-school students said they had been victims of cyberbullying.
Despite its good intentions, the Arizona law is already being called "overly broad" by critics. By using vague terms like "annoy" and "offend," it could easily encompass Internet forums or even comments like the ones found at the end of this story.
Free speech groups say they don't believe the law would ever stand up to court scrutiny if Gov. Brewer does, in fact, sign it. And many have pointed out the flaws in the bill to the governor herself.
"Government may criminalize speech that rises to the level of harassment and many states have laws that do so, but this legislation takes a law meant to address irritating phone calls and applies it to communication on web sites, blogs, listserves and other Internet communication," Media Coalition wrote in a letter last week.
So tell me guys what do you think about this? I for one do not live in Arizona so it does not affect me but still its alittle stupid.. we can't have fun anywhere can we?

You must PM a moderator and they will send you the appropriate paperwork, which must be mailed back within 10 business days...failure to do so will mean you have to check in once a day for life.

I searched and found many games threads and movies threads in the OT, but found only one which linked these two. That was by a user Dredge, and its last reply was posted on 5th July, 2011. Considering it was outdated, I thought it safe to open this one. Just hope the mods don't close this.:fingers-crossed:
Ok, so as the title suggests, this is a game on movies, only Hollywood movies. No local movies, not even Bollywood (i would like to include it, but many people here won't understand the names). A user posts a movie's name, and the next user posts another one whose name starts with the last letter of the previous movie (kind of like the last letter game). If a movie ends with a number, eg. ["movie_name" - 2], then the next user will post a movie that starts with the letter 'O' (t-w-o).
I would like to start with an old but still likable movie :-

This is indeed a tragedy perpetrated by a nutjob. Nothing more. Nothing less.
I am probably going to have to turn off the TV soon as people start asking "Why?". What drove him to this? crap. He was not firing on all cylinders. That's why.
Then will come the gun control lobby.
They will use this tragedy to try to further their agenda.

moderator number 2 welcome, The Archangel is already gonna be watching this. I really hope it does not turn political. if it does can we just remove those posts instead of closing the thread
This is so sad I hope that the families of the victims can recover and get over their devastating loss
Those children had a future
They had hopes and dreams
They had something to live up to
And a Psycho ruins all of it
Let us all hope that politics doesn't get in the way of the families recover ying from their loss

If you people can't keep the political or other stuff out of here. LEAVE NOW! I will not be tolerating it, period.
I completely agree such a sad day especially for the kids and people who were affected and had nothing to with that persons issues... my theory is if you life is messed up fix it don't take it out on people who have nothing to do with it
Rip sandy hook and bless you all

Pretty much. Used to be as soon as you went south of I-30 crack heads were the voting majority. He's south of downtown. Not cool area, well used to not be. North or uptown is where it's been built up and kinda nice now.

Yep..
18 years ago... the late Tupac Shakur died.
On September 7, 1996, Tupac was shot multiple times in a drive-by shooting at the intersection of Flamingo Road and Koval Lane in Las Vegas, Nevada. He was taken to the University Medical Center of Southern Nevada, where he died six days later.
He was so young (25)

OP...your thread and initial post have more inconsistencies than the actual investigation of Makaveli's murder...
Let's go on and analyze this here thread:
1-The title "Tupac Shakur has passed away today" is misleading as the date on your thread reads "13th September 2014, 07:54 AM" but he actually dies on September 13, 1996
2-Second of all...you ask the question, and I quote : "Does anyone here like him too?" Now...this question is being presented as a present tense but since he is now defunct...are you asking us if we like his remains or his music legacy?
Please clarify to further comment on this subject, OP.
