I ignore nothing sir! I will read it when I return from making my lunch.
The sir is a lady, FYI.
Don't worry, Revan, we're all looking out for you :innocent:

Unless she is found to be legally insane during those acts the responsibility falls with her. Yes, we are a product of our environment and our past but as our Western laws currently stand (which are mirrored in the ME universe,) then we have rights and freedoms precisely because we are deemed capable of discerning "right" from "wrong" which in turn implies that we bear responsibility for our own actions. If not then we may as well strip away all rights since they become meaningless.
In realty we're responsible for nothing, because none of our decisions is really a decision of our consciousness (as far as neurologists know). ![=]](https://lvlt.forum.bioware.com/public/style_emoticons/default/sideways.png)
But honestly, if I really had to decide that, I wouldn't listen to a psychologist or so, but I would make my own judgment about her.
Then I disagree with those neurologists and invite them to up their game until they have a fuller understanding of what goes on in the human neuro pathways.
Frankly, all this stuff is so complex and vast that we're not even not remotely getting close to understanding exactly what inside us makes up for our mind and humanity. Consciousness and free will is something that can not be reduced to a network of synapses, as most neurologists would agree. And bar some clear cut examples falling within the rank of psychiatry, attempting to pass of criminal intentions as being forced by unconsciousness is sheer reductionism and has no place in legal society.

I've got a kid, though, so I acknowledge that my opinion is not unbiased.
On the contrary, I believe in that case you're one of the few people who actually know what they're talking about.

Wow, I just saw some guy saying that being attracted to Quarians is like being attracted to animals since their not human. Hate him.
That doesn't make a lot of sense. Sentient creatures, such as Humans, and pretty much all of the humanoid like races in ME are pretty fair game. Though, it is fiction, Quarians, Turians, Asari, etc, aren't animals. They're sentient beings.
Don't worry, you aren't a zoophile, just an xenophile! 
as far as i can tell, animals use to have hair. the asari doesn't have that, i bet that the quarians don't either, neither do the krogan or the turians..
so in my opinion, humans are more close to animals with their facial hair, hair, armhair, leghair... you get the idea
Well, hypothetically speaking, I believe this all comes down to the distinction of sentience vs. non-sentience.
I'm a dog person to my deepest core. I'll agree that dogs can be and usually are extremely intelligent, close to our own species and remarkably like us in so many ways. I'd swear my late dog could understand every word I said. But I'd still hesitate to call them fully sentient. They're incapable of pondering abstract concepts, deductive and rational analysis, their ability to act other than based on empirical is severely lower than that of a truly sentient species I'd say. That's what makes the difference between sentience and non-sentience for me; the ability to grasp the potential. We're way closer to quarians than to dogs, if not biologically speaking.
not that this would at all lessen the animals value; if anything, sentient races should take great care not to exploit the non-sentient ones IMO.
Anyway, more love for Tali needed here. I'd definitely buy a Tali centered DLC even if it cost several thousands of BW points.
In fact, that'd probably mean only one thing:
LOTS of Tali!!!
Bring it on, Bioware!!!!!!!!
