  • If the knight was equipped with a shield and sword - Knight.

    If the knight had neither - Knight.

    Even if the knight had no shield or weapons, it would fare better because his limbs become the next weapon being covered in armor a lion cannot penetrate. At least immediately. The only chance a lion remotely has is if it manages to knock the knight’s helmet off and go for the face and head following a takedown.

    But I also wouldn’t say it’d be easy for the knight either because, all of that weight will just fall onto him should he be tackled. A full suit of armor typically weighs 50 pounds all over combined. So if a lion tackles the knight and manages to have enough intelligence to try and use suffocation as a means, that’s 50 pounds + the weight of the lion of 420, that knight is not getting up anytime soon.






  • I don’t think there really is any other way, without making it incredibly awkward. Can you imagine the scenario? Who would you find? Who would you know is directly responsible for the thing you’ve pirated?

    See, there is quite a slope here to go down on when it comes to this very thing. Let me put it into perspective for you.

    Pirating movies isn’t really hurting anyone that badly. Usually, actors and actresses are paid six to seven figures a film with lesser-than actors probably getting four to five digits of funds. They’re fine. It’s the greedy, ungrateful and unappreciative executives operating the studios that want more and more.

    That’s just an example. A lot of the time, the rights of media content is largely signed over to the networks anyways so it would be a moot point to bother with doing this. I really don’t know what to tell you in regards to this.

    I just think it’d be awkward to hunt down almost every individual involved with something you pirated, to directly support them. That’s a lot of lives to sustain and make up for in directly supporting. Not everyone here has bottomless pits of cash laying around, that’s why they sign with record labels and make deals with studios, because they have that kind of pull and money.

    Also to consider, maybe some people are against piracy whom you want to support, you don’t know that. You can run into the wrong person, tell them you pirated their material, they could get offended and take you to court for it.

    So to wrap it all up - it is not simply worth it. We know who we’re “hurting” and it isn’t the creators. All that they’d ask us to do the most, is appreciate what they’ve done.




  • I don’t get why these kinds of questions are still asked, when it has been the Republican and particularly, Trump’s mission to throw the government in disarray. He’s in it all for himself and everyone is at that expense.

    There is nothing that is in it for them, except dismantle everything recklessly, plunge the country into complete internal chaos and then leave any competent administration, if there’s any left, to spend all of their time fixing them if it is possible. Just in time for the chance of another Republican body to come in and do it all again.
