There are so many guns out there that stopping the sale of guns will have little effect. Doesn't mean that you shouldn't try though. They need to change their whole culture though...often said..only in America. We will never understand the gun lobby as we have a culture where we expect the police to protect us. Criminals have guns in Europe too, but never on the scale that you get in the USA. They are trying to put the genie back in the bottle.

Switzerland has a ton of guns, practically every household has one, and everyone has had some sort of military training, and yet gun crime is not a problem over there. As for banning guns, well I don't understand why anyone needs to own an assault rifle, but remember that the Virginia Tech shooting, where 30 people died, was done with handguns, during the period when there was a ban on assault weapons. I think it might benefit the country to make it more difficult to buy a gun, but I don't think it will make enough of a difference for the issue to be as important as everyone is making it out to be. I think we just need to take a step back and realise that these shootings are anomalies which are way down on the list of things that are killing people. The sad fact is that if you want to really want to kill a bunch of people and kill yourself afterwards, there will always be a way.
 
Fancy a bit of a game, who can make the best video game cover?

I'll start. Interested to see how long this lasts...

Designing your own cover is optional, I just had this lying around.

I can't choose between Ultraviolent Pokemon Conquest, Kermit's Chainsaw Island or Professional Chocobo Voyage. Also I don't have Photoshop but suppose I could give it a go with MS Paint.

You don't realise how close you were Joe.

I played this right through, it's a pretty good game actually.

Ever go all the way with the Chocobo mini games on Final Fantasy 9? Leads to the most difficult boss in gaming history. It took me weeks.
 
I'm just hoping that there is a communist candidate in my constituency for the next election. I am fed up with living under the Tory yoke.

Today the Queen attended the cabinet meeting so I had a go at writing a speech for her. This is it.

Good Morning Mr Cameron and good morning everyone.

I would like to start by asking when are you lot going to start doing something to improve the lives of my subjects instead of looking after your chums in the city and lining your own pockets?

The economy of this country has been ruined by you lot and your friends and before you blame Mr Brown let me just remind you that he is nowhere as big a twat as George "I tell big Porkies" Osborne.

The health care of my subjects is being neglected and they are being increasingly impoverished while you all grow fat along with your capitalist friends.

I want you to spend less time worrying about same sex marriage and women Bishops and put that level of energy into looking after the welfare of my people.

Put my people first not greed.

I am going to leave now as this room has the stench of greed, privilege and incompetence.

If my people have an ounce of sense they will kick you lot out on your arses come the next General Election and vote in that nice Boris Johnson and his friend Sebastian Coe.

Good morning and please don't ask me along again.

One morning spent with you incompetent money grubbers is more than enough for any sensible person.

My God how were my subjects ever taken in by you obnoxious lot?

I thought you would all enjoy this cartoon in the Times this morning.

It would seem that their cartoonist has the same opinion of the Cabinet as me!

A farmer was denied a permit to build a horse shelter. So he builds giant table & chairs which don't need permit. I love this.

Was that where you had to get the black chocobo who could go anywhere and it led you to a boss who, once bested, became a summon monster?

You get the chocobo which can fly (whatever colour that is) and then you have to find a little shadow which can be anywhere on the map. Fly up to it, and you find Ozma.

If you beat him, you get the Ozma card and you can steal the Ark summon from him during battle.
 
Looks like your avatar bears that out Oli!

Joe, I youtubed all that, it was the gold chocobo, I do remember doing that quest but I can't remember the fight with ozma.

I must have done it though as I had the book which led me to do the chocobo quest in the first place.

Just watching a 9 dart finish!
 
I remember the infuriating chocobo race game to get Tidus his celestial weapon. You had to beat some other guy by getting loads of balloons and avoiding the seagulls.

Spent my entire IT career avoiding his crap anti-virus software [if it's the same bloke], but now it looks as if the hardware might turn up instead.
Yep it's him accused of killing his neighbour by shooting him in the head,wanted for questioning. So he's basically on the run.
 
The Justice Collective single to raise money for the Justice For The 96 campaign has taken Christmas number one away from the X-Factor winner.
