    Come on now, this one is easy. I got it on my first try after about the second or third day, based on the list of hints.  I disqualify myself because I would rather look up the answer than wait for somebody to tell me if I’m right or not. 

     

    *****.  I cheated and I don't even remember the answer!  Although it was a name I knew of at least.

    While the second cop pushing the first cop away to help looks horrible, if you watched the longer video, you will see second cop call out "medic" and the guardsman attend to to the old man immediately (people timed it, it was 15 seconds).

     

     

    Thank you.  I've been trying to figure out how long it took because, of course, every video I've seen stops after the 2nd cop says No, and then calls the medic. 

  3. He's not a hippie.  He's a peace activist.  From Buffalo News breaking email:

     

    BREAKING: Meet the man police pushed to the ground during protest in Niagara Square

    The protester who was pushed to the ground by Buffalo police Thursday night in front of City Hall in a video seen by more than 11.5 million is a longtime peace activist from Amherst.

    Martin Gugino, 75, was in serious but stable condition at Erie County Medical Center as of Thursday night, according to police.

    "He’s a gentle person who really believes that he must stand up for what he thinks is right," said his friend Terrence Bisson, who has worked with Gugino on Latin American issues through the Western New York Peace Center.

    "That’s why he went to the demonstration. He would never resist physically any kind of orders," Bisson said. "He’s a bit frail, not because of his age. He has some health problems."

    Gugino grew up in Buffalo, moved to Cleveland where he worked in computer technology, before returning to Western New York where he has been involved in a broad array of issues ranging from nuclear disarmament to climate change and Guantanamo. He has a YouTube channel with 35 subscribers in which he discusses such issues.

  4.  Mattis said this:     Mattis took particular issue with the use of force to move back protesters so Trump could visit St. John's Church the day after it was damaged by fire during protests. Several different groups, including the National Guard and the U.S. Park Police, were involved.

     

    Can somebody tell me what the real story is.  I think I read on this forum that this was a bunch of crap?  I haven't been able to keep up and somebody just PMd me on FB with this Mattis article and telling me how divisive Trump is.

    It's all a scam.

     

    It grates on me when I hear this crap about people living in fear that this will happen to their sons. It would be more rational to lie awake at night worrying if their sons will be struck by lightning.

     

    Well, Lebron is hunted every day....

    This thread breaks it down nicely

     

     

     

    That spells it out perfectly.

    This is what makes me so crazy/depressed/outraged/etc etc about this whole thing..................It's based on nothing.  

     

    This killing seems horrific.  I've seen white people killed by cops seemingly just as horrifically...............And, then if you day All Lives Matter, you're a racist.  

     

    If the numbers really showed that blacks get killed disproportionately, this stuff would be more legit.

    1973 was the first year of the 72 hour rule. The game had to be sold out 3 days before game day. This game, as well as several others, weren’t and thus, a local black out.

    BBB....I believe you but I clearly remember watching the first regular season game at the Stadium, against the Jets, on television. I remember the Jets QB throwing a last second TD but the Bills still won the game. Maybe they showed that on television because it was their first regular season game at Rich?

     

    McDermott corrected me above.  I didn't realize it was the first year of the new rule.  I can't believe that first MNF game ever didn't sell out in advance of 72 hours!

    You realize they just make these Top 500 lists up, right?

     

    Their commercials claim that their fans vote for it...........One DJ kept saying and you listeners "help" us make the list............All the DJs kept saying they have no vote - unlike the fans.

     

    I think they're all full of crap............it's probably some kind of thing that's been researched, etc. and spits out numbers.

    People were gathering in cities across the country to protest the death of 46-year-old George Floyd.
    In Minneapolis, where Floyd died, a hundreds-strong march demanded that four now-fired officers be arrested in a case that has generated nationwide outrage. The protesters set fires outside the precinct and ran through the empty facility after police fled the scene.

    Seriously man, NO pics of her ass exist. That doesn't strike you as odd? Thousands of photos  as a sex symbol/celebrity, over close to 50 years, and we can't find a single photo?

     

     

     

    Then how do you know it's dumpy (well, other than her being 70something)
