LOL... I keep saying to my friends, I do not mind smarter robots as long as there is always a BIG GIANTS RED OFF BUTTON prominently accessible and as long as humans keep making BIGGER GUNS!!

I have an aluminum bat sitting by my computer at work and if any of my systems ever get the wrong idea, "BASH"!!!

Mix liberals and people who have never seen a street fight let alone war in one room and you come up with stupid ideas like this.... Surely these are the same rejects who sat at lunch in HS arguing about Star Wars.....

Well, if someone were to say, for example, that Episode 2 was one of the better ones, then yes, there would be an argument about that
