Best Police Interceptor Of 2014
Crown Victoria by a long shot, still a widely adapted, versatile vehicle that has been battle tested and approved. That car is a tank. My second favorite, and a little bit more modern is the explorer. A mid size SUV, modernized, with plenty of space for equipment makes that vehicle another top contender.

Dover Police Department Funny Video
What's funny about this is actually how important it is. You might think it's a police officer just dancing/singing whatever, but community outreach is so damn important to Law Enforcement Agencies today, much more than ever in policing history. The public is so skeptical of policing in recent years, with some communities outright denying to engage their local law enforcement and instead protest it. This makes the job of a Law Enforcement officer so difficult to protect and serve a community that refuses to recognize law and order. These videos, as silly as they are, help win over the community. Now every law enforcement agency, big and small, engage the community through use of social media, which greatly helps people understand the job of a Law Enforcement officer. These outreach programs help engage the community to tell them why the police do what they do, and these small little videos can convince people that at the end of the day, cops are just ordinary people. Rock on Dover, Delaware.

Christmas Money + Birthday Money = New PC :D
Good rule of thumb - Upgrade ever 2-3 graphic card series. OP, I'd recommend buying the GTX 960 since it's brand new, and in my opinion, extremely affordable given the high performance they put into that card. It was very aggressively priced. I believe they will start shipping within a week or two.

windows 7
Microsoft will have official support for years to come, but third party developers will stop developing and optimizing for the Windows 7 platform, and move on to more modern software and hardware. In the end, it's the creators of programs who you should pay attention to, not Microsoft.

Fox 10 Phoenix has an excellent segment in which they took two people, one Police Critic of the Use of Force on minorities and another, just an ordinary TV anchorman, and put them both through 3 scenarios in which they decide how to handle a situation Police encounter every day. See for yourselves the outcome News Story: RAW Scenario 1: RAW Scenario 2: RAW Scenario 3:

Grand Theft Auto V Release Dates (PC, PS4 & Xbox One)
Not saying you're wrong, as you might as well be right, but considering all the talk of optional, 4K High Quality Textures, that's probably why the game will honestly be 60 - 70GB after Day 1 patches. Damn even 60 GB though, how many CD's is that going to need? xD

Your favorite song?
I always had a thing for the stones, and Vietnam, and the 70's. As Anti-Hippie as I am, I thought that was such an interesting time in American history. Things really started going downhill, and this song really captures a good portion of that time period.

What is your download speed?
That's really good! The only reason why I said education and businesses shouldn't count for these sort of things, is because they're paying for premium speeds and are paying for the infrastructure to handle those speeds. Whereas in a house, hopefully, one can do the best with what the consumer has available and make a measurable difference in most cases. (Ex: Wifi --> LAN) EDIT: I'll be living in a college dorm later this year, I'm looking forward to those sorts of speeds. :)

What is your download speed?
Sorry guys :3 It's no google fiber, but I've yet to meet somebody who has faster internet than me going to their house, which isn't an education or business. There's a lot of basic and advanced networking things you can do to boost your speed though, most importantly, using a wired connection. (Not an education or business connection either)

12 Dead in shootings at Paris Cartoon Office
If anybody hasn't seen this video of the final hostage raid in France, I recommend watching it. Please take into consideration, the video depicts graphic content including death. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKziiM_lEqY If I could insert my considerations here, I'd like to point out that within the past year, we've experience an increasing amount of Urban shootings on multiple continents. Canada's Shooting of a Soldier at the Memorial, Sydney Australia's Cafe Siege, and two events in France (Related), a shooting of a Journalism Office and another shooting at a Cafe are prime contenders. All of these attacks have been executed by Muslim Extremists. The horrific loss of innocent life is tragic, but there is a Silver Lining, which the post above mine highlights. These extremists want to target the Western, Modern World and act as Martyrs, and be completely glorious even if killed. What's so wonderful, is how the modern world comes together to protest these sort of sick, preying on the innocent attacks. The terrorists want to make a point to the Modern World, but instead the Modern World makes a strong, undeniable point to them of how the Modern World will not bow down to terrorism and extremist demands.

12 Dead in shootings at Paris Cartoon Office
Oh absolutely, the Catholic Church alone has been known for violence, funding Hitler in WWII, Inquisition, Middle Ages War in Europe, Crusades, ect. I wasn't saying Mulims were the only violent religion, because they're not. But the amount of extremist fundamentalists is much higher than other religions today.

12 Dead in shootings at Paris Cartoon Office
What do you mean those people are not "true muslims"? These Muslims are truly, to the best of their ability, obeying the specific orders of the Quran. Don't even contest this, we all know the Quran in multiple parts calls for violence upon non-believers for the sake of spreading Islam. And before you call me racist, don't. Because I'm not. I don't hate Islam, I hate the fundamentalism that is being interpreted by certain Muslims. Also, Anybody better read this whole thing before they consider arguing. While it is well known that the majority of Muslims don't go around taking the Quran literally, which would imply Jihad and Sharia, upon every Western country and elsewhere, there is a small minority of Muslims who do take this religion literally, and seriously, and make the vast majority of modern, peaceful Muslims look bad. Fundamentalism, is the basis behind every "Terrorist" group we have come to known, whether it be from Al-Qaeda, Al-Shabaab, or ISIS. This fundamentalism destroys the reputation of Islam, and explains why Europe is having so much tension between Islams especially in the UK, France, and Germany. But the problem here, as mentioned, fundamentalism. When religions expand and change and adapt, as anything does in this day of age, people get nervous, and panic. This panic is fundamentalism, in which to take everything written completely literally. Honestly, these are true Muslims, what's more true than literal interpretation? With that said, anybody with a sane mind and rational thinking process knows that the religion of Islam in this day of age is a religion of peace, and not violence. While these people may be absolute cowards for doing what they did, and will do again, you can not call them "not true muslims" because that is what fundamentalism is, and what the religion of Islam states, but in no way is what the religion is about, nor any religion for that matter. Fundamentalism is a problem and a threat to the Western World as it expands, due to panic and conservatism. I'd hate to see a discrimination war against Islam because of the actions a few think it is their duty to do.

NYPD Officers Show Disrespect At Funeral In Protest
Personally, I like the cops protesting. DeBlasio and his liberal agenda ran on an Anti-Cop mayor platform (And other Democrat platforms), and since everyone in America, especially liberal city folk hate cops, he got elected. Cops don't get enough support these days, and I'm glad NYC has a strong, boisterous union showing that police are here to stay and serve as professional, public service men and women. With that said, turning your backs while somebody is speaking about a dead city police officer is absolutely revolting. A funeral is a time and place for the utmost respect, and bringing politics into the situation when somebody is remembering a dead person by turning around is astoundingly selfish, shame on them.

Who else Pre-Ordered GTA5?
My bad, let me rephrase. When it is available to be preordered on Steam, I will preorder it.

I'll probably wait until it's on Steam to preorder it.

after completing a call
They have to be placed in the rear seat of an AI car for the mission to terminate. If you interact at all, such as ask the suspect to stop, you need to arrest them. If the game glitches out, just shoot the suspect so the game won't crash.

...F-35 progression
Oh come on, you can't honestly defend the F-22 as a product of the MIC. Designed well over 10 years, if not 20 years ago, never saw action until 2014 due to numerous Operational Issues including crashes and oxygen for the pilots, massive delays, price increases, ect. That's why they stopped production cap at 200 years ago. Not saying there wasn't smart people working on the project, but clearly there wasn't enough R&D and engineers working for such a complex project. Lockheed Martin, as usual, clearly had it's eyes on the military contract, not so much the product. Anyways, Air Superiority Stealth Fighters weren't really one of the Pentagon's major interests at the time. If it were, the program would've had the money and brains for it like they did during WWII and the Cold War. So many planes during that time were built like absolute tanks including our main heavy bomber, the B-52, designed in the late 40's. To be fair, Canada doesn't have an aggressive Foreign Policy as America does. Whether it's for better or for worse, America has a much wider military operation globally than Canada. Canada wouldn't even be involved in Iraq & Afghanistan if it wasn't for their obligation to in NATO.

...F-35 progression
The F35 is the prime example of the inefficient, MIC (Military Industrial Complex) at work. I understand that the F35 is supposed to replace everything, and uses "advanced" stealth technology and such, but still. If the private sector wasn't responsible for the production and research of this, you'd probably have a much better product at a significantly cheaper, and earlier release because the companies want to milk as much as money out of the government as possible. EDIT: This reminded me of the F22 as well, that plane was designed over a decade ago and only saw combat last year. It was super expensive, and so behind schedule that they're already being phased out in the military despite them not being used at all. It's such a shame and a slap in the face for tax payers.
