  1. I was thinking the same thing before I saw your post. What is taking place here is old fashioned chit bombing.
  2. Maybe what you said is part of the problem. To keep Jerry Jones and Robert Kraft happy the Bills are going to have to market well outside of Erie County. There may be two problems with that depending on the reality inside of PSE. Either the people just gone were not going to have any part of that or the Pegula's were not going to give them the resources to do so. I could see either scenario being the case. I see hammer heads just on this board and the old BBMB who do/did not want people outside of Erie County to be Bills fans. I have worked for employers that have high aspirations but will not commit one penny to make those aspirations a reality and the Pegula's might be just that type of employer.
  3. I see your face every time I check this thread. It's like a wanted poster at the Post Office
  4. I saw the same thing at Cornell many years ago. Many of the people at my student residence prided themselves in being very tolerant but that stopped at the gay guy who was living there. Jim Gaffigan aka gaff again? I did not know that he was still around or that anybody bestowed celebrity status on him in 2020.
  5. And I thought that this was going to be a roll call for the libs here.
  6. So you are saying to take the law into one's hands? Sounds like a recipe for disaster. This is not 1880 or 1915 or 1932. There is a mechanism in place to address police brutality. If you have been abused by the cops then use that mechanism.
  7. There was an interval of time with the interaction between the cops and Floyd where Floyd was not on the ground concerned for his well being. That was the time to simply comply and let any violence committed by the cops be dealt with by a lawyer or public defender. Would you have me believe the cops went from spotting Floyd to choking Floyd on the ground in a split second? Honest question to you.....do you dislike or hate cops and does it have to do with personal history? I remember kids hating cops when I was in school and it traced back to the parents. The parents simply did not believe in social order whether it had to do with the father being a wife beater or the mother being a drunk driver. If a parent is not compliant with such laws and are arrested by the cops are the kids justified in hating the cops?
  8. As it should be. Which is to say deadly force in response to simple non-compliance is not to be found nor should it ever come to be. Immediate danger sometimes comes down to perception versus obvious observation. The LEO does not always get the benefit of a weapon waved in front of him to make a judgement.
  9. It is. The situation is far out of hand when the cop has his knee on your neck or discharges his weapon. Show me the situation where a cop asks for ID and a split second later the person in question is violently thrown to the ground or is fired upon.
  10. George Floyd was another who made things far too hard on himself. All you have to do is readily comply at the onset and let the body cams confirm your position in an arrest. The cops kill a man who was complying every step of the way confirms their guilt if serious injury or death results. It's no different for white people. If I start physically resisting a cop or small group of cops then I can only expect them to increase their physical effort to restrain me. If I reach into a part of my vehicle that a cop cannot ascertain the contents of it I can only assume that the cop thinks I my be reaching for a deadly weapon. As a matter of fact when pulled over for a small traffic infraction years ago I was going to produce my wallet to show my driver's license which was in a center console that was closed. The cop instructed me NOT to open the console but rather exit my vehicle then he would check the console for my wallet. I did not have tats, all kinds of exotic facial hair, or dress like a hoodlum. Just an ordinary guy and the cop still took a course of caution. Who knows? Maybe if the wallet was maybe in my pants pocket the cop may have not been so concerned.
  11. Way to compare apples and oranges. All the guy had to do was stand down and he would be alive and back on the street this morning. Some public defender would assure this once the guy was brought in and processed by the police. Just a FYI a person is not allowed to play by his own rules when confronted by the police. The cops do not have to let anybody re-enter a vehicle if they suspect there is a fatal risk to themselves, the person being confronted, or a bystander.
  12. Actually, you guys ran to Putin as you have done with the Russians since the 1920's. Stop with the gaslighting as only weak minded fools such as yourself buy it.
  13. You are terrified of democracy.
  14. My mother departed this Earth many years ago among the many problems with your statement. That aside the most she would have done is hold a rosary and pray for your soul. I honestly think you meant to say your sister but you have not worked up the courage to go public with it.
  15. Did you get any visits while being a guest of Cattaraugus County Corrections?
  16. Permanent boot and his IP address needs to be looked at for sock accounts. Time to haul this garbage out of here for good!
  17. Penfield is most likely secretly delighted about this as he hopes the poll numbers for Biden will start going up.
  18. You are missing the point. The unions were in steep decline long before Trump came along and I do not agree with your assessment regarding him. AMC's best years were from the mid 1950's (when a bunch of smaller companies such as Nash were combined to form AMC) when AMC was formed until the late 1980's when AMC was bought and most of its products were discontinued. A shame in some respects as some designs such as the Eagle lived on in other manufacturers lines namely Subaru.
  19. I said that we are seeing the decline of big labor. You agree with that? Kenosha is no longer the industrial center it was for a lot of the 20th Century including being the home town for America Motors Corp. The people who believed in voting Democrat because that was the directive of the labor union local are dying off. If you worked for AMC from 1945 until the 1980's when it was sold off to Chrysler you are 90 and don't care anymore if you are alive at all.
  20. I don't need to follow a person to know that person's trajectory in life. Unless you were following Falwell for personal reasons the average person heard nothing about him after the year 2000.
  21. I think that you have that backwards. RR 1, Tiberius 0. So awarded and so scored.
  22. I never once followed Falwell, Jim Bakker, etc.so they were never my masters.
  23. Kenosha should be a Democrat pocket normally due to big labor (unions) but we are seeing the decline of big labor in terms of being a factor in that party. In the future places such as Kenosha will be in play for either party to take.
  24. Falwell has not been relevant since the 1990's and only to the superficial types such as yourself when he was.
