I disagree the mech only adds 20% to his badassness as remember he was the one who modified it and takes care of it so the other +30% is still to be credited to him XD

Correction, said modifications and maintenance are supposed to be conducted by the hangar's grease monkeys. The best the Colonel can do is give instructions on what he wants customized.

So in effect, said mechanics are 30% badass

I think...

touche but he is unfortunately dead so we will never know ... unless our theory of him returning as a cyborg in Avatar 2 pulls thru anywayz

Local politician murdered in Philippine ambush: police

Quote:A local politician was killed when gunmen ambushed a convoy carrying about 50 people in the Philippines on Monday, police said, echoing a horrific election-linked massacre last month.

A local politician was killed when gunmen ambushed a convoy carrying about 50 people in the Philippines on Monday, police said, echoing a horrific election-linked massacre last month.

Six other people travelling in the convoy, including two village officials and a police escort, were wounded, Ilocos Norte province police director Senior Superintendent Benjamin Lusad said.

Four hooded men ambushed the convoy, which was carrying candidates and supporters of the opposition Nationalista Party just outside Dingras town in Ilocos Norte, according to Lusad.

Joen Caniete, a village chairman who was running for a seat on the Dingras town council in next year's national elections, was riddled with bullets and died immediately, Lusad said.

The attack came barely a month after armed followers of a powerful political clan stopped a convoy of people in the southern Philippines and murdered 57 of them.

The dead included relatives of a rival politician to the clan, plus journalists and lawyers. That attack was carried out allegedly to prevent the rival from running against one of the clan members.

Lusad said it was too early to conclude that the ambush in Ilocos Norte, in the northern Philippines, was politically motivated.

"We are looking at so many angles," he said without elaborating.

I find it hard to believe that anything in this country now is not politically motivated. Fucking cowards.

I hope the victims rest in peace.

Kung sana lang ubusin na nila ang isat isa. Putang mga pulitiko yan.

Ubusan ng lahi? I would approve of that, except for the little thing of me getting involved in the crossfire.

Problem is, that kinda thing won't work too well for the political scene in most of the towns in Ilocos Norte, especially in my place. The term "Political Dynasty" applies oh-so-perfectly in that region as most of the seats in any given town are occupied by people related to each other. However, these guys don't usually get all that well together and infighting is pretty common. Case in point - fully half of the politicians in my town are related to me through both sides of the family, with a grandfather's cousin as the mayor and a father's cousin as the vice-mayor, both of whom were constantly at each other's throats.

Out of curiosity, would you by any chance have known the victim or his political rivals?

That Caniete guy? Not personally but he was just a family friend of one of my buddies in high school.

WTTFFFFF!!!!

Walmart and H&M throw out AND DELIBERATELY DESTROY unsold goods. WHAT THE HELL.

I can't understand it. Selling for cheap/donating will tarnish the brand? Is that what they're thinking? HUH. That hardly makes sense.

Set up surplus stores or outlets. Detag them and resell. Something. But don't freaking deliberately destroy them. Liquidating the stock makes so much more business sense.

EDIT: And the same's done for food too. Sigh.
