You can actually. Pedestrians always have the right of way. You must have failed your driving course, because that was definitely one of the test questions...

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

If you want to discuss how traffic and criminal laws (should) work, please follow this link: viewforum.php?f=20

Otherwise, back to topic folks.

The law is not really the point here, Afforess. I'm talking about moral responsibility.

EDIT: I didn't see your post Blaat. Apologies.

Never underestimate the power of cynicism, pessimism and negativity to prevent terrible things from happening. Only idealists try to build the future on a mountain of bodies.

The Thing to Remember About NationStates is that it is an almost entirely social game - fundamentally, you have no power beyond your own ability to convince people to go along with your ideas. In that sense, even the most dictatorial region is fundamentally democratic.
