Re: Upcoming US Election

Otherwise, I'm too old and weak to win in a fight for it. I mean, if my choice is either fight for my h...

Re: Upcoming US Election

Re: On competition and co-operation

Warriors on each side of a conflict want to work together to kill competing warriors on the other side. This is an example of both competition and cooper...
