Not sure. I saw it posted on another forum and liked it.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

A prosecutor in New Jersey has started charging heroin dealers with homicide under strict liability.

In the same CNN story a talking head claimed overdose of opium (opiates??) is the 3rd leading cause of death in Massachussetts.

That happened under English law. It took a long and tortuous route through the courts before everyone decided it didn't really work. Maybe it will in the US.

:bleeding: Strict criminal liability is something that belongs in Saudi Arabia or Afghanistan.

That really sounds like it should be a legislative change, not on the initiative of the prosecutor.

The first mission in every game is to destroy Swadia. After that I decide who I am going to back, usually Nords or Rhodoks.
