Additionally, Jackson noted how important it was to him that his manager and team had his back. "Fortunately, I had a manager, in Johnny McNamara, that … if I couldn't eat in the place, nobody would eat. We would get food to travel. If I couldn't stay in a hotel, they'd drive to the next hotel and find a place where I could stay," Jackson recalled. "Had it not been for Rollie Fingers, Johnny McNamara, Dave Duncan, Joe and Sharon Rudi … I slept on their couch three, four nights a week for about a month and a half. Finally, they were threatened that they would burn our apartment complex down unless I got out." Jackson concluded by saying that without McNamara and his teammates, that he would've never made it out of Birmingham alive. "I would've [gotten] killed here, because I would've beat someone's [butt]." It was a sobering recollection of memories from throughout Jackson's career. The Hall of Fame talent didn't hold back when discussing the truth of what he endured over his playing career, and it is well worth the listen as MLB celebrates the legacy of Mays and of Rickwood Field as a whole.

It use to be that way. Massachusetts had an established religion up through the 1820's, I believe, but with the 14th Amendment, the Bill of Rights, which begins, "CONGRESS shall make no law..." was attached to the states, so all those basic rights, including freedom from religion, were enforceable on the states. That's why the states have to provide a lawyer for all criminal defendants

Clearly. Kind of funny that Trump supporters support this AND Trump, who sh its all over a bunch of the commandments, but that's who they are https://apnews.com/article/louisiana-ten-commandments-displayed-classrooms-571a2447906f7bbd5a166d53db005a62 BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Louisiana has become the first state to require that the Ten Commandments be displayed in every public school classroom, the latest move from a GOP-dominated Legislature pushing a conservative agenda under a new governor. The legislation that Republican Gov. Jeff Landry signed into law on Wednesday requires a poster-sized display of the Ten Commandments in “large, easily readable font” in all public classrooms, from kindergarten to state-funded universities. “If you want to respect the rule of law, you’ve got to start from the original lawgiver, which was Moses” who got the commandments from God, Landry said. Opponents questioned the law’s constitutionality and vowed to challenge it in court. Proponents said the measure is not solely religious, but that it has historical significance. In the language of the law, the Ten Commandments are “foundational documents of our state and national government.” Advertisement

You sure seem to be supporting him now. Hard to square your following Ward Carrol and then talking about how bad Biden supposidly is, but never criticizing Trump on policy. Strange You obviously want Trump to win. But why? -

Biden absolutely slaughtered Trump in Virginia in 2020, not even really close. I doubt this would help him much at all. Does Youngkin believe the 2020 election was stolen and that the Jan 6 animals are heroes and patriots?
