Sure, other countries are fine. But the US is bound to be fucked within a day or two.
Trust me, My uncle had ebola. Didn't die though. I just still hope he's going to be okay.
Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't come here to the U.S., full blown.
I'd almost say I'm surprised that the U.S. hasn't suspended all flights going to; and coming from Africa.
Of course though, if they did, the Government would lose a bundle, due to the suspension.
And if Ebola were to come here full swing, doctors and hospitals would make a fortune off treating the sick, like they do treating people with Cancer, AIDS, and etc.
And of course, the Government would get a huge cut, like they do with everything else.

It was not only what happened to Bob, and their showing his leg being barbecued and eaten that repulsed me.
But also Negan's sick reasoning.
I personally found it repugnant.
However I'm curious to see what happens to Daryl and Carol when they go off to find Beth.
And what will happen if Daryl shows an interest in Beth, how Carol would respond to it.
Right now, it's kinda hard to classify Daryl and Carol's relationship persay.
Though she has flirted with him numerous times, their reunion seems to suggest that he perhaps thinks of her as more of a mother/big sister.
With Beth, he seemed more invested with.
Beth was really able to get him to open up.
And Daryl thus became more friendlier, and even slightly fun.
And when Beth asked him what convinced him that there were still good people out there, Daryl in essence indicated to Beth that she was the reason why.
The main reason I'm interested in Daryl's relationships with Carol and Beth, is because in them, Daryl has grown so much as a person.
At first, he was a goddamn jackass!
Acted like he didn't give a shit about nothing or nobody.
Granted the guy did have an underlining sense of decency, but his angry-loner attitude often hid it.
But over the last 5 seasons, Daryl has grown into a visibly fine man.
In some respects, I'd say an even better man than Rick, with no disrespect intended toward Rick's character.
That's the one of the main reasons I've enjoyed watching the show.
As I'm curious to see what's gonna happen to Daryl next.
Him and Rick both, really.
What's next for these two brothers-in-arms?
I appreciate your being civil and respectful of my thoughts about Neagan and this whole pedophile/cannibalism bullshit.
Those two acts, are completely abhorrent, they are crimes against humanity itself!
Not get off track, I still wish to thank you.
So many here have resorted to disrespectful, and belittling behavior, and comments.
And out of curiosity, do you think Daryl could ever be a leader of a group?
Would you say he has become co-leader of Rick's group?
What are your thoughts about this intriguing character?
I respect your opinion since not everyone is the same thinking but you know theres alot more worse coming up so yeah since your 1 of those w… moreeak stomachs then this might make you vomit your guts up and down since it gets worse past the hunter/terminus arc lots worse i like the show but people have a point the game had cannibals just as bad but maybe the real life aspect looks of a guy with 1 leg and the other chopped off is more disturbing to ya but you know its your decision i respect ya fully and i just wanted to say my words on this post thingy
Dude, a man fucking died from Ebola then came back. I don't believe the news, but I do believe my parents.
he started eating a doctor's face. Then he was shot down. Preventing a Zombie apocalypse. But the doctor didn't come back so yeah.
Never going to quit, loved it from day one and going to keep loving it,,, The show is based around the comics so if you think its to intense for you now then you might as well quit watching it because its only going to get even more wild,,, Love it and going to keep watching...
Well I like the character daryl he could be a leader since he has the stealthy silent weapon skill to manage that role and the only thing i hate is the people who fangirl and say if daryl dies we riot and crap like that
It was not only what happened to Bob, and their showing his leg being barbecued and eaten that repulsed me.

Game has cannibals. It's alright. TV show uses cannibals. Suddenly it on TV is bad. Yeah, cool. The group never do it, so why not watch? It's about them surviving while being good people. If anything, it has far more morals than you're saying
Disturbing? It hasn't even been "disturbing" enough IMO. Did it show Lizzie get shot in the head? No. Did it show Carl get raped? No. I don'… moret see what can be considered "disturbing" unless you're referring to the gore, but even then the gore isn't disturbing, I mean the most brutal thing they've done was hitting their heads with the bats and slitting their throats. If you would consider that to be disturbing however, you're a pretty sensitive person.
I mean, you said the cannibalism is crossing the line for you, it didn't even show them cut off his leg, and I personally don't have a problem with Cannibalism (The killing and chopping off legs by force is another story however). I think it should be somebody's decision whether they want to be food or not. I was pissed off last season (The second half at least) for not showing enough "disturbing" content, but they're doing pretty good with this season by adding new elements and such. I recomm… [view original content]
I have to agree with you.
It'd be a shame if Daryl got killed off, seeing as he become such a huge; and intricate part of the show.
However, he is just a tv character.
He's not God.
And just curious, what do you think Carol's reaction would be, if Daryl and Beth become an item?
Especially since she did kill Carol and David at the prison.
Well I like the character daryl he could be a leader since he has the stealthy silent weapon skill to manage that role and the only thing i hate is the people who fangirl and say if daryl dies we riot and crap like that
Are you seriously that square? Yes, it's fucking entertaining, would you prefer something family friendly and completely boring? Also, you do realize there was canalbilsm in this game that I assume you played because you're on this forum, so what in all the fuck are you talking about ?

she killed karen and david because they were like 1 of the 1st sick and had no hope if im correct so shes not bad really it was more of a mercy kill so i think carol would be ok with daryls choices in life since shes not a bad person

I started watching the series from the beginning, at the request of my brother. But I stopped at an episode or two during Season 2, cause I felt the series was dragging out. Plus, the characters...look I know it's the apocalypse and all, but I just couldn't connect.
Rick's group do their best to stay good people. So long as they don't enjoy the violence or bully or threaten groups for no reason or to feel tough etc. they are good people to me
Rick's group do their best to stay good people. So long as they don't enjoy the violence or bully or threaten groups for no reason or to feel tough etc. they are good people to me
What really disturbed me was the guy's reasoning, when he sat in front of Bob while eating his leg.
His trying to justify his depraved behavior, as well as that of his group, basically saying it was just business, is what really unnerved me.
Same thing with Brenda St John.
Though at that point, I was to engrossed in the story, and in the characters in the group, that I didn't pay as much attention to her depraved state of
mind.
After seeing the episode where Bob dies, Rick's kindness and decency toward Bob and the others in the group, as well as his fierce protectiveness of the group, allowed me to get passed the depravity of the Terminites.
On that note, I must say that Rick and Daryl are my two favorite characters on the show.
They're both tough, hardened men, who have still managed to maintain their humanity.

I agree, the darker the better, it's a more accurate representation of what happens in a world like this. I've seen some people complain about how dark Season 2 of the game was, but I thought it represented just how people change and are forced to adapt in a zombie apocalypse.
I actually really like it this season. The darker the better for me (but I prefer the feels from the game more). But watching a disturbing show is not going to turn you into a psychopath.
Well i saw Episode 5-1 this weekend, and it was absolutely over the top. The girl i was with wouldn't stop talking about it. I don't want to see that shit. Children should not be watching this stuff, no wonder there is so many crazy kids out there shooting up high schools. Hollywood should take responsibility, and convey what is morally acceptable. However that doesn't happen when the all mighty dollar.
Hollywood/Parents really should be ashamed of themselves. The destruction of our moralistic culture is going to shit. Whatever right, we don't need "self value" in our life, we can deal with endless school shootings, teenager sex, or whatever ills on society that was caused by shitty influences.
Girls thank people like Miley Cyrus. She is the "perfect" role model. Its what Hollywood wants you to be, a brainless dumb ass.
Yes....Let's blame TWD for "School shootings, teen sex, and other societal ills"...No I blame it on a bunch of bullying from assholes, just teens being teens, and parental issues. The Walking Dead is a good show but it's not for kids, this show doesn't show it as morally acceptable...hell anything but.

I have to agree.
Hollywood should be made to take more responsibility for what they feature in the media.
And game companies should be held to a higher standard, with what they are allowed to feature in their games, as well as having a stricter rating systems.
Is it any wonder why things like that shooting in that theater in Colorado happened?
Violence on the media, encourages real-life violence.
And studies have shown that to be such.
And I definitely have to agree with you on having ones like Miley Cyrus as a role model.
Her and Justin Bieber are nothing but spoiled-rotten, drug-handled brats.
To say these kind of people are role models, is like saying Hitler was a humanitarian.
It's completely ridiculous!
Parents also, need to give greater thought to what they games they buy their kids, and what they allow their kids to watch on tv.
For example, I was in target, and I saw a mother buying her 13 year old kid a game that was rated mature.
As I was watching this I thought to myself: "Ma'am, do you really think that that is an appropriate game for a 13 year old kid?"

The theater shooting because of a crazy ass prick. I think that blaming games for this is dumb, these psychos would've done it anyway, violence on TV doesn't enforce "Let's go shoot up a school", that's the person's life that caused that thinking, from abuse or a ego complex or a mental disease. You really think after playing COD or watching TWD people think it's okay to do it in real life, that's some lies. I play VG and watch VM and if anything it releaves stress and makes me want to do it less is RL.
Yeah Miley Twerking it Cyrus and Justin "badass" Bieber are bad drugged up role models so high on money they think they're invincible.

Like I said before, I disagree. Hollywood and video game companies don't need to be held to any higher standards in what they choose to produce as entertainment. If something offends you or there's a movie and a game that goes against your beliefs and moral values then simply don't buy them. And I also don't believe violence in the media encourages real-life violence, at least not to the scale you're implying, because if it did, events that you mentioned would be happening all around the world, especially in countries that portray just as much violence in the media as we do, and that simply isn't the case.
The reason those people did those shootings was because they were messed up in the head. And like GolednPaladin said, they would have most likely done it anyway whether or not the games were a motivation. Video games are basically the new scapegoat for irresponsible parents to blame, just like they did with music, TV, and comics back then.
I've been playing rated M games since I was about 4 or 5 years old. My first rated M games were Doom and Duke Nukem on my dad's PC, and even at that age I knew the difference between reality and fiction, at least enough to know that it was definitely not okay to do the things I was doing in the games in real life. I've been playing games for twenty years and have watched all kinds of violent movies, whether live or cartoons, and I've never had any motivation whatsoever to do the things I've seen on them.

Dude, i was just like you. I remember when John Kerry wanted to ban all violent video games.
Then i grew up, and realized children are extremely influential. How many times do we have to read in the newspaper about some stupid kid doing something stupid because of some outside influence.
Yes....Let's blame TWD for "School shootings, teen sex, and other societal ills"...No I blame it on a bunch of bullying from assholes, just … moreteens being teens, and parental issues. The Walking Dead is a good show but it's not for kids, this show doesn't show it as morally acceptable...hell anything but.
Yes and therefore children shouldn't play those or watch them. It's up to the parent to watch their child and make sure they are raised right not the gaming companies. John Kerry is an idiot.

Not everyone can be as exceptional. Kids are so stupid they're killing each other because they "think" they might see Slender man. Personally i think its a bullshit motive, and they're trying that insanity plea but W/E.
As a gamer i support the ESRB rating system, because that way i can say u kids need to stop playing my adult video games.
