And that’s why Assassin’s Creed: Unity turned out so great!

Yet, those that have fought for you find you in contempt of their sacrifice, since you do not honor the right of free speech the fought over.

Actually, I’m pretty sure the whole walled online garden thing was started by Compu-Serve back in the late 80's...

When at any point both feet leave the ground, it’s considered running. One foot has to be on the ground at all times

He was being polite...

How do they not die of heat stroke?

it’s in torrent, it will NEVER disappear now...

Nonetheless...

Yet, we just watched a video of people about thirty feet away from someone shouting about Dragonite stampeded towards the shouts...

Well, look at it this way, does anyone ever think drunk driving is right?On the other hand, how many people thing “just this once” while they’re drunk? Let’s not even forget the infamous line “hold my beer and watch this.”

Sooooo you’re saying he was going to molest someone when he was sober, he just hadn’t gotten around to it? How fatalistic of you.

Drunkenness weakens the risk/reward and consequences assessment of the brain. So while they may be capable of some self control and rational thought (because, face it, those also take a hit with drinking), they may not be completely aware of the wrongness of what they do.

My sentiments exactly, though my statement of owning up was more accepting the punishment than just simply feeling contrite about what he did.

Well, the issue I have is that harboring ill thoughts does not make you a definite predator; in fact, that’s a dangerously fatalistic attitude to have (particularly with crime and justice; one of the reasons why we have such a high recidivism rates in the U.S.)

I would concur partially, but while it’s easy to say he should have controlled his drinking, I don’t think either of us are aware of his past alcoholic issues, whether he’s suffering from an addiction or not. I lean towards no, but I’m not that draconian.

Yeah, that’s always been bullshit. Just because a person has a dark side, doesn’t mean that that dark side is the whole of the person. You understand how the brain works? The frontal lobe of your brain is where evaluation of consequence stems from(and not just consequence to yourself, but of all factors of a…

Exactly WHY is it you guys think this is an apology for him? He has to own up to this, he fucked up, alcohol or not. The thing I’m pointing out is EVERYONE is capable of doing something fucked up at any point in their lives, no matter how good or bad. The question is do they live up and own the consequences, or do…

That’s fine, because it was never, ever, an excuse. In fact, it’s a cautionary warning. At no point is anyone absolved of consequence, regardless of influence, on the other hand any person’s character can compromised.

You’re right, it isn’t. What gave you the impression that I was excusing him?

There’s a difference between harboring thoughts and acting on them. Also, acting on actions and feeling sorry about doing them does not mean that the actions themselves are in any case condoned. People nowadays (from looking at the multiple replies I’ve gotten) seem to forget this isn’t a dichotomy of bad and good;…
