Welcome to Gaia! ::

Liberals took over and wanted a big government and no guns so they got their wish and guns were banned, and the government got bigger, but now the government has too much power and started abusing it, so now the only way to stop the government was to start a revolution against the them, but oh s**t, no more guns. Then the whole Country of Panem was turned into a wasteland full of poverty, because Liberals no longer got their welfare check and actually had to do things ON THEIR OWN! (gasp)
Naw, it came about because King Minos failed to sacrifice a bull to appease the gods. His wife fell in love with the bull as punishment from the gods, and conceived a monstrous child, which Minos, in his shame, concealed in a labyrinth built by the inventor Daedalus. Because this 'stepson' had to be fed, Minos demanded the youth of Thebes as a tribute to his power.

And because children's authors aren't very creative, as a rule.

Didn't those liberals only take over once the conservatives destroyed the nation with global warfare?

It's almost as if you can't trust either party!
And Right Wingers were responsible for "Battle Royale".


Looks like we're ******** on both ends.

The book didn't have any Cannibals in it, thus it's retarded

You do realize that the vast, vast majority of people on welfare are conservative, right?

You really are mixing reality with fiction.

I'm more annoyed that they're eating mice and dogs, but their main interaction with bears, which I guess are still kickin', is trying to drive them out of town. I don't know what planet Suzanne Collins is from, but whether their big, bad, obviously Roman overlords frown on poaching or not, bears are consummately edible, being an enormous slab of meat. Not to mention their other useful components. I'd expect the bear hunters to be popular dudes.

I guess the ban on weapons would make it tricky, but still.

You're aware it's a work of fiction, right?
