I would reply with some answers, including convenience, being in the neighborhood, etc., but it sounds like you are way too high up on your horse to hear the response.

This isn't Rosa Parks at the back of the bus. It's freaking immature 17-year-old boys who think saying "fag" and "nigger" are funny. And guess what, 17-year-0ld boys will continue to find it or whatever is a taboo word in society in the future funny.

OK then, lets hear your practical solution for eliminating jerks from online gaming.

No, people are allowed to be bigots, as I'm allowed to ignore their bigotry. Conditioning individuals to think and act exactly how you want them to think and act is a slippery slope.

Wait, I'm lost. Did Batman's dad die in this one? Wow, interesting plot twist.

Just back up everything to your PC before deleting. Makes it easy to keep track of everything and save room on those small memory cards.

Wait, why are they making another Hitman movie? Did people like the first one?
