Granted, but he explodes when James Bond makes a minion crash into his car. I wish for more hippie chicks.

Yeah, it's got to be Vice City, but I've always been style over substance. The jetpack in San Andreas was awesome.

Alright, no hippie chicks/dudes for anybody. Just kidding. I was more interested in the crazy scenarios people could dream up, but philosphical discussions are fine in short doses. I'd recommend you guys talk on IRC or start a philosophy thread in case others want to chime in. My definition for violence is strict (I've edited my first post to include it) because the word gets hijacked for just about everything involving conflict (which can be nonviolent, such as MLK Jr. or Ghandi's efforts). Orwell wasn't too wrong about the direction of media. Also, I haven't smoked near enough wacky tabacky to start on philosophical discussions regarding the nature of reality. I'm happy to accept this world as real unless I have overriding evidence to the contrary, even if my sensory apparatus is flawed. My senses are the only input I get, everything else builds on them. Including abstract concepts.

The key is that Obama is actually a communist as evidenced by his health care plan. Any scholar of history knows that fascists (like Nazis) and communists (like Obama) are actually symmetrical antiparties of each other. So all you have to do is wait for Obama to accidentally collide with his Nazi servants, and both will be annihilated in a shower of energy. The Nazis will be dead, so the force field will turn off. The tricky part is that this collision will spark a detonation so intense that it turns the beaches of Normandy into glass. I recommend anyone storming the beach wear one-inch sole boots to shield the wearer against the sharp dunes.

Given the amount of history between those two, I'd need to know which specific problem. If it's Joker bothering Batman in general, Batman just has to relinquish the cowl and donate his money and gadgets to the Gotham police. Then Joker would get bored and go after someone else. We can easily answer this without resorting to any violence. All it takes is one punch, done the right way by someone trained in combat. Most knockouts come from rotational forces, not pure power or amount of strikes. It might be kind of a cop-out, since I'm using data that was previously discovered through violence, but you could also use accident information to determine this as well. Since Mafia is a game, there's no real violence happening. Please see my definition of violence below. I will go with a strict definition: An act that purposely causes physical harm to a sentient being. For our purposes, we'll stick to humans and fictional aliens/races defined as sentient. I really don't want to argue over animal rights ATM. Also, I'd like to stick to physical harm (blows that cause injury) rather than mental harm, which I get at NG on a regular basis. Generally, the solution to most conflict is more alcohol. Offer him shots until he passes out. Unless he's got a bad liver, then offer him some weed. We'll start with the FPS/WT question. I believe both are types of video games. No sentient beings. No violence. Successful genocide, i.e. destroying an entire race. Happening right now in Japan, the U.S., & Europe thanks to birth control, porn, TV, and video games. So, you just set an impossible ideal living standard for everyone, and then make it easy not to have kids. It'll take a while, but it's still happening. Major surgery isn't intended to cause harm, but I'm willing to give out a hippie for this one anyway. Please specifiy if you want a chick or dude. No more medical gimmies for anybody else, though. I'm assuming you're talking about movies, in which case almost every one is simulated violence at best. Theatre blood and fake screams are not violence. Keep 'em coming guys. I've got plenty of hippies to give out for nefarious purposes.

Since IRON has far superior analytical capabilities than my brethren at NG, they are a perfect community to consider my hypothesis "Violence never solves anything". So I challenge all IRON members to post any problems they can think of that can have violent solutions, along with the solutions themselves. I will periodically drop by to refute all solutions posted in order to further debate and insult the intelligence of those posing them. Quick addition: Any that I cannot refute will be rewarded with hippie girls or guys (depending on the preference of the poster). Edit: My definition of violence-An act that purposely causes physical harm to a sentient being. For our purposes, we'll stick to humans and fictional aliens/races defined as sentient. I really don't want to argue over animal rights ATM. Also, I'd like to stick to physical harm (blows that cause injury) rather than mental harm, which I get at NG on a regular basis.
