DarkSaber: Although, unsurprisingly, he's just being called an idiot alot and criticised for being as illegible as always.

Valdearg: @DS: Im sure that's what they'd do if it wasn't legal to just tell Gays/TG's to "Screw off," just because they're who they are.

DarkSaber: Whoever told him/her/it that is dumb. They should have done like most companies and made-up some bullshit, yet legal, reason for it not getting the job.

Andrew Eisen: Shouldn't be. Spirit of anti-discrimination laws would seem to include sexual orientation (and eye color). Plus there's always equal protection and such. Never know until you try.

Andrew Eisen: Should have sued (unless that wasn't an option given her financial situation or something). Might have won.

Valdearg: Story about a Male to Female TG who was expressly told she wouldn't be given a job because she was TG. Its not the main point of the story, but explicit, perfectly legal discrimination like this exists.

Valdearg: Lol, I don't know. It may very well be legal to do so. Though that might able to fall under the "race" restriction, depending on how that point is argued.

Valdearg: I don't think they do have any legal recourse. I'll have to dig around, but I seriously believe that if the law doesn't specifically mention Sexual Orientation or Gender Identity, they can still be discriminated against in those 29 states.

-Ultimately what will do in mankind is a person's fear of their own freedom-
My two favorites are in Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball's opening FMV and during the mission in China in either Splinter Cell, Pandora Tomorrow or Double Agent. I forget which one it was in and I'd have to go through a lot of game to get to it. It was so pretty I stopped for a few minutes. The mission could wait. Those weren't in there, sadly.
Also, agree on the "simply cool" tag.
"That's not ironic. That's justice."
I'd count Mercs 2 myself, depending o nyour definition of fireworks >.>
What? No Splinter Cell Double Agent Chinese Newyear level? Climbing up the outside of a building 60 floors up while fireworks being set off everywhere! Blasphemy!
Also Ace Combat 6 mission after "winning" the game, you fly around Gracemaria while fireworks going off...
Would have been better if they'd just just let them play through instead of splicing them up all over the place like that. I couldn't sit through the whole thing (the splicing plus too much buffering). But I'm glad to see Animal Crossing made it on there, because the fireworks for the game are actually quite pretty.
This is boring filler "news", I want to get angry about something like a rape game.
I'm angry that I have nothing to get upset about >:|
