Some things that i would like to see in BOA would have to be,

New weapon styles like axes or maces or maybe a blow gun type missile weapon.

A couple new characters styles from a different continent maybe a ninja style or an imperial solder character.

The two swords would really been cool but in stead of two hits have one be a defensive sword with a penally for deflecting missile weapons.

The ability to throw more then one razor disk, ninja star at one time maybe for more action points you would get to throw 2, 3 or 4 doing more damage but with a higher accuracy penalty maybe the same with arrows.

New spells like some area effect spells like a fire wave that lets say forms a line of 4 or 5 squares long and moves across the screen burning the enemies in it path but it does not stay put like quick fire.

More characters would really be nice and maybe have the ability to split your party in to 2 groups and have them take two different paths in the game and also have the ability to build an army of NCP'S to help in, lets say the attack of an enemies castle.

The ability to hire a boat and travel across the sea to distant lands.

Will that is all I can think of right now thou I will probly come up with some more later.

You appear to have used two opposite logics here. Firstly, you say that better enforcement/tougher sentances etc. of gun control will not affect criminals, as they don't pay attention to the law anyway. Then you say that tougher sentances/ more enforcement for gun related crime should be increased, and that this would affect these crimes. Surely by the logic of your first arguement, this would have no effect, as criminals would not pay attention to these anyway.
I never said that better enforcment and tougher sentances will not affect criminals. I said I do not support tougher gun control and licensing of firearmes. Those will not affect the criminals. The only people that get licensed are the law abiding gun owners the criminals will not go and get a licensed, and tougher gun control will just make it harder for law abiding citizens to purchase a firearm not the criminals. I do support better enforcement and stricter penalties. These will affect the criminals by locking them up and keeping them from committing another crime, and the stricter penalties will keep them locked up a lot longer.

Maybe you do. Others however do not. And when you say you know what you are doing, what exactly does this mean? You know how to shoot somebody well?

What it means is I know the proper use of a gun I know how to handle it and how not to handle it. When to use it and when not to use it. And as for others, maybe if people where not so close minded and learned how to properly use and handle a firearm then their opinion might would go from, guns are bad, to if used properly a gun can be a very safe thing and have it's uses.

Do you stand against licensing of firearms, then, and tougher control of guns? It's my personal opinion that only those who know how to responsibly use firearms should be allowed to do so. That way those who can responsibly use firearms are able to, and those who cannot are not.
I do not support tougher control of guns I support stricter penalties for crimes involving a gun, and as for licensing of firearmes. What will that do? Criminals will hardly be affected by licenses, they get them illegal anyway. If properly enforced the gun laws that we have on the books now would be very effective.

Even if the bill is passed and I hope that it is not, it will do nothing to stop the criminals from using them, they are readily available throu the black market or by smuggling them in to the US from other countries.

Before you try and take away our guns (I mean law abiding, gun owing Americans) you really should take a look at the other countries that outlawed guns such as England and look at their crime levels and then ask yourselves, if their citizens had the right and the ability to defend themselves would their crime levels be so high?? I think not.

You can criticize all that you want to, I am a proud member of the NRA as well as an avid hunter and target shooter, (Oh no I said I am a hunter. Here comes PETA to scream at me. Haa Haa Haa) and I know that the guns are not the problem it is the people using them that is the problem. I have been shooting sense I was 5 years old and in the 19 years that I have been shooting I learned how to properly handle gun and how to respect it. So maybe instead of outlawing the guns maybe they should outlaw stupid people. But in the words of a great man "You will have to pry my guns from my cold dead hands" and that man was Charlton Heston. Former president of the NRA and a great actor as well.
