He must be carrying a weapon!  Anyone have a guitar?  Or an AK-47?

Not as a weapon, but we could try invoking the ACLU.  I'm pretty sure he's infringing on our rights.

There are three possibilities. Maybe I'm a gay guy. Maybe I'm a girl and I just happen to have the name Jonathan. And there's nothing wrong with that. Or maybe my name isn't Jonathan S. Fox at all, and I just got sick of random people I barely knew asking if I was really a girl back in my UO days. Also on Star Wars Galaxies. Seriously, it's like an epidemic. World of Warcraft wasn't so bad, because I played horde, and back then they were all "ugly" races.

Actually those options aren't all mutually exclusive.

Guy OR girl?  What do you think we are?  Conservative?

no, they aren't, you could be a hermaphrodite named John (but not actually "Jonathan S. Fox").

But actually you are both male and gay. or at least you were back in 2003...

But let's better go back to the real purpose of the thread...

"Serial killer had bought bullets for his automatic weapon in a k-mart" (or maybe college assassin, but that is too strong I think)
"gays beaten up by a gang in a park"

"government uses 700 billion to bail out wall street"

mmmm this is a bit excessive, the news have to be more common and general so as to permit repetition in a very long game. 

How about a black president getting elected and causing a massive ripple of riots across the country in logic defying ways. That'll be funny.

Funny  :D but too specific, we could put something about a liberal type being elected to a position (not featured in game, mayor, governor, etc) and causing trouble among conservatives.

Trust me, if you've seen all the news reports in the game, you wouldn't think these things were out of bounds.

Examples:
-Drunk rednecks kill a gay man, then pee at the cops as they flee.
-Conservative Judge is found peeing on a prostitute.

yeah... but those can happen multiple times in brief periods of time... The election of the president is something you are watching and influencing someway.

I agree that the Prez thing is probably not a great idea, although the election of a new president should perhaps play more into the game.

Really, I was talking to you and the starter of this post, narskie.  Couldn't decide who to quote, so I went with the newest.

I like your K-Mart suggestion, though I couldn't buy a knife at K-Mart when I was 16...

EDIT: Best to go with Wal-Mart instead. ;D

I would rush to your aid but...

I really don't know that much about flag burning.  So I'm gonna stay on the sidelines.
