    I didn't say computer simulations are the same.  Do I think they help?  Sure.  My point was, the testing that used to take months or years to do, now can be done much, much faster.  DNA testing wasn't admissible in court until 1986 because it wasn't reliable.  Now, we can have testing done in days, or a couple week at most and with extremely high accuracy rates.  We have more evidence of what components of vaccines and such will have lasting effects.  Again, that isn't to say it's 100% completely foolproof, but to compare testing and research times from 40 years ago and then say that today's stuff isn't as accurate or trustworthy because they didn't take the same amount of time or is also not accurate.  

    You are defending a stupid attack by talking about unrelated items. I made statements of fact about the COVID shot and your response was to argue that the shot works as advertised, which only the dumbest believed.

  2. Any argument that 2020 was a more secure election than any of the previous ones for at least 100 years is stupid and intentionally ignorant. Everytime you add an additional  layer  between the voter and machine you add a chance of malfeasance/incompetence. Every time you don't verify the voter you greatly increase the chance of malfeasance. And if the vote is not done quickly and efficiently you add in the ability to mess with it. All three of these items were present in 2020, and GA and PA had them in huge amounts. These points are inarguable to an intelligent person, the only question is what conclusions we teach from these facts.

    You're vaccinated, right?

     

     

    Depends on your definition of vaccinated

    4 decades ago, we didn't have the science or the testing capabilities that we do now.  How were computers 40 years ago?  Televisions?  

     

    I am not saying to follow everything blindly, but the idea that things today take as long as they did 40 decades ago is ludicrous. 

    Do you actually think the computer simulations are the same as actually having even 10 years of research? I can't remember if you were one of the people who told me that there was no evidence of long term issues with the COVID shot in summer of 2021 but several people here did, proving the lack of understanding of all scientific principles. A five year study still takes 5 years at a minimum, which you seem confused by.

    I love how these idiots are making the case for vaccines and don't even realize it - lmao

    Before COVID conservatives were the ones who believed in vaccines, while liberals, especially in places life California, fought against the mandates. Now you equate a shot that protects you for 6 weeks with unknown side effects with a vaccine that has 4 decades of information. You truly are gullible

    Do you dispute that the topic is in bad taste?  How about a topic called, 'has your kid been killed in a school shooting yet?'  C'mon man. 

    Both phenomenon are from the same source, liberals. School shooters are 80%+ liberals and illegals are 80%+ liberals. As I have stated multiple times, guns in my neighborhood outnumber people but I don't fear being shot. I fear evil people and those that allow them to flourish, hence I will never move to an area run by liberals.

    I will never agree with squatters rights laws but it's worth noting that all 50 states, including Florida, have laws regarding them.

     

    I guess everyone is a Commie, right Roy Cohn?

     

     

     

     

    Florida squatter right laws kick in after 7 years of continuous residency, which means you would have to be unaware of your property for 7years, not 3 days

    Did Trump perform better last night than he did four years ago?

     

    Are you aware that the Democrats canceled their Florida primary? Why didn't the GOP do the same for Trump?

     

    I am glad you admit that the Dems knew Biden could not handle a primary. 80% of Floridians voiced an opinion that Trump was our man, just like every other race in Florida history.

    Who funds this crap?

     

     

     

    I tried to find the budget of the movie to simply see if it was gonna be a $50 million loser or a $200 million loser and I cant find anything about the actual budget. I have a feeling that this was recognized as a loser a while ago and only released so they could not be accused of squashing it.

    Your defense of provable liars is hilarious and one of the reasons I like you on this site, it gives me a good laugh so often. NO ONE with any intelligence believed Hutchinson from the get go much less now with all the info out

    I mean the kids are simply not capable. And since intelligence is highly heritable, they can thank their parents for that.

     

    The blank slate insists that if "anybody" just studies hard enough they can grasp and apply algebraic concepts. This is simply untrue.

     

    Now are there a couple of these kids that may be able to understand 8th grade math well enough that simply have no structure or support at home? Sure. But do we really think the vast majority of them, given that this is a school specifically targeted to and structured for "at risk" kids, could pass 8th grade math standards even with such structure and support?

    The concept of being proficient at math at these ages is much more along the lines of effort for 90% of students, because the math is simply not difficult.  I have only had a few students, about 5-8%, who truly could not complete up to the level when they tried. Much of the issue is simply showing up to class and working through concepts, which is primarily on parents. The way that LeBron has set up the school is truly no better for these kids than the local public school since there is no requirement that parents be involved. LeBron is not the problem but he is not the solution at all.

  11. A good friend of mine is right now dealing a POS principal who has instructed her not to teach the "Outsiders" in 8th grade despite it being approved by the state for that level. The teacher has taught it for 10 years without objection because she informs parents at begining of year, in January and just this week before she starts it on March 25th. Parents can opt for an alternative assignment but the principal is pretending that she is concerned about the law when it has been approved for 8th graders. When I see headlines about how difficult this law is to follow I get pissed because it is easy to follow and this teacher has gone out of her way to ensure parents with immature children have an alternative.

    Any idea how much draft capital is needed to go from 28 to top 10?  
     

    IMO…very very small chance of this happening. 

    The Bills got the minimum from  KC a  on the pick  for Mahomes and that was the next years 1st along with the current 1st and a 3rd rounder. 

  13. First time jumping on this signing but how are people trashing the guy? He has to be used properly to flourish but that is why is not getting paid $30 million a year. If we use him and the other receivers properly I can see an offense where 5 guys have 60+ catches on this offense. I like the signing even if it seems  like we have a lot of "slot" guys.

    The Press That Spread the ‘Don’t Say Gay’ Lies

    Now Lies About the Settlement Reached Regarding That Law

    by Brad Slager

    In Florida, a court challenge to the hotly contested Parental Rights In Education Act has ended with a settlement reached between the plaintiffs and the state. You can read through the media reports about this conclusion and see the bias plainly on display.

    .

    These articles are hilarious in that they are celebrating that  nothing has changed. The only people who are going to change are liberals who pretended the law said things it did not say. My safe space sticker on my door has remained up the entire time, my male students are always discussing their boyfriends, and the lesbian teachers have had their family pictures up the whole time. The law was aimed at a few terrible teachers and they are the only ones who had to change because they liked discussing their sex partners with children.

  15. If he is still available when we can trade up for him I would be very happy with that pick. Josh has shown he can work well with tight ends and he would give us a ton of flexibility on formations. No reason we can't use all three TE at once and use Kincaid and Bower as split out receivers.
