So, write a letter to your congressman, MP, or if you're Canadian your local crack addict, and tell them to get on it.


I feel offended and i'm not even Canadian or a crackhead

Because the war on terror helped anything.....

Writing the MP or congressmen ...

Oh my, GD..........
.... infectious stupidity.

Agreed, if their "cause" is worth killing for they should start with themselves.

lol they're all about as useful as belly button fluff.


They get off their butt for a little while if you light a fire under it.
You're doing it wrong, you should be using them as the firelighters, it's the total extent of their usefulness.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Don't forget about Du Annes. I can find it for anyone who has forgotten where it is.

Sorry, but it's too vague in my opinion.

Examples? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isis_(disambiguation)

About 70 things the acronym ISIS could possibly stand for.

On a more personal note - I feel there may be more healthy ways to express your anger, sadness, or other feelings over something as awful as seeing a journalists beheading over political/religious issue then trying to ban the use of a acronym in a video game about internet spaceships. I think you should focus your efforts somewhere else, where they might actually have any effect or overall meaning to people in the first place.

Thanks for reading.

I would simply never dream of watching such a horrible video.

However, apparently here in the UK, the police can take action against you if you do so, as reported in at least one newspaper.

This is not a signature.

When CCP starts changing the names of things or putting trigger warnings on game features because of sheltered, hypersensitive fools that can't handle any similarity to real-world brutality, this grimdark game is doomed.

Fun thing is that now that a certain country could really use some booted, rifle-carrying freedom, that is not an option.

Instead send in even more weapons.... history has clearly proven many times over that nothing whatever can go wrong with that.

EVE had ISIS before the terrorists did.

On that note, Archer had it before EVE did.
