That's a pretty good start. I acknowledge losing faith in the govt science dudes. I always want to given them the benefit of the doubt, but a govt lifer is a govt lifer.

Listen, this is the same crowd that is all boned up about Uncle Joe and Aunt Liz saddling others with the debt people incurred for four years at a prestigious college or University replete with Sprang Break, general buffoonery, needless spending on room and board, a well-paying job coming out, a university with an endowment greater than the collective wealth of several third world countries (excluding Canada of course), and a set of financial priorities that reads 1. me 2. my stuff 3. more stuff for me. 4. new stuff to replace last year's stuff 5. bmw 6. travel 7. vacation 8. reunion with the other scofflaws 9. Biden 4 Prez 10. any financial obligations i knowingly and purposefully entered into using my good name as my word to honor said debt, but "what's in a name?". The payoff, they say, is that by saddling others with the debt, it frees up other money to fund items 1-9, so they're actually the hero of the day.

I like your thoughts on most issues. I’m saying this: The greatest gift you can give to your children is a strong work ethic, the willingness to put in a hard day’s work in something you love, and to encourage them to stand on your shoulders and see farther than you dared to dream. The assets accumulated through hard work and perseverance are part of that if I choose to include in my own plan. What I’m thinking is: You sandal-wearing-filthy-footed-grungy-hippie-liberal-$&$&!! Grab the pitchforks baby.

#freethepeach and concurrently let’s just #freethenipple I’m good with both.

But what about a George Foreman grill? Can someone bring that in a voting line so they can make delicious samwhiches like grilled cheese or BLTs? This law is a Jim Crow rope-a-dope fiasco.

Reminder: Peaches. We need to add that to the long list of COVID kryptonite.

He shoots 4 times to neutralize a threat. The threat in this case was a person trying to end the life of another person. Are you advocating one shot to the skull? Maybe catch the edge to the stabbing arm? Or the hand, the one holding the knife, sorta in the range of the other girls face and neck? To answer your question about whether or not it was necessary, I think she made it necessary to act with haste and resolve to end the threat she posed, and there is not much more to say than that. Stepping back from the need to act in haste with resolve to end the threat, there are many things we can talk about as it relates to society, upbringing, mental health, the other individuals who didn’t assist or exacerbated the situation. We can certainly talk about the future of policing, sending social workers in to defuse these situations and the quest for some version of non-lethal force that would thread the needle between victim rights and the rights of people trying to stab the life out of another. Monday morning quarterbacking the decisions by the officer in something as obvious as this does nothing for the greater or good. The best course of action for him personally would be to do nothing and let things play out. Maybe the girl is wounded but does not bleed out. Maybe she wrestles the knife from the other lady. Sometimes people die because their actions just are not reasonable.

There’s always someone trying to take guns away, and as a citizen you have every right to question the intent of government officials. The clusterf*ck of the past year and a half as officials chose winners and losers, who could gather who could not, and “hunker down and be compliant but we’ll look the other way for those who are not” tells you all you need to know about our trusted leaders. I’m not sure what you’re talking about in your second paragraph. Student loans no more ‘kill our economy” than car loans, mortgages, property tax, sales tax and income tax. The fear isn’t really a fear at all, it’s a carefully manufactured story to appeal to the supposedly educated among us that they are victims of a great scam. Meanwhile, the folks to be victimized by the payoff often honored their debt (many educated folks do and have), never partook in the absurdity of a Philosophical Sustainability degree from Berkeley, understood priorities (obligations v newest iPhone), and totally bypasses the carnival barkers running the scam if one exists—Big Ed. That’s not a fear, that’s a recognition that you can convince anyone they are a victim if the payoff is of sufficient value for them to suppress their moral standards.

Awww snap like das Fauch, hiding in his science cubby while folks spread the virus he’s the supposed expert on?

Like shrugging one’s shoulders and pretending protests didn’t cause the spread of the virus, like the Fauch was known to do. Sounds like one of those west coast swingers parties that are all the rage with your Miley Cyruses and Jodi Fosters.

I wonder if they found his new address and we’re going to try and burn him out again. The timing seems odd.

Your comments are hurtful. Be that as it may, I did think you were painting every law enforcement officer with your broad brush, but I was hoping I was wrong. People with your mindset have been responsible for a lot of pain and misery over the years.

Who are “they”?

Of course you don’t. You’re just a sweet kid who doesn’t knit his own socks, preferring instead to order online using your personal squawk box constructed from petroleum products, buying from countries polluting Mother Earth at an alarming rate, using non-sustainable products, made in sweatshops by child/forced laborers working 12-15 hours a day, placed on trucks and cargo ships that chug across the vast oceans leaving a trail of destruction all along the way, placed on trucks that burn fossil fuel in and ultimately delivered to in a most decidedly eco-painful packaging that you will quickly cast off to our ever expanding landfills. Knit you own socks man. Save the planet. Be bold. Be Biden.

Brother 5–have at it. Hide in the cellar. Dim the lights. Knit your own socks. Send all your money to your betters to redistribute. On the 4th, mask up, eat tofu and speak in hushed tones. You’ll be saving us all. But be nicer on the comments regarding Lindsey G. Humor at the expense of others creates negative energy that dents butterfly wings in the Arctic, which—you guessed it, contributes to the climate calamity that befalls us.

Between a max of 4 people on July 4th and 4 pounds per year this nitwit is going to ruin summer for the very docile.

It’s very possible his aides were f’ing with him and he’s got his underwear on his face.

Amazing. It takes a rudimentary understanding of cartels and human nature to imagine the horrors that individuals have faced at the southern border for decades. It really takes 19 bodies in 2021 to see the tragedy? This is a drop in the bucket. The UN sees these people as disposable. The US government over the past 5 decades sees the suffering as irrelevant. A large segment of the American population sent a loud and clear message about the relative worth of the victims by sending Biden—a guffawing douche in his twilight years who enriched himself all along the way—-to the White House. But sure, hand wringing helps too.

That’s a question for the ages and the Bride of Frenklestein. I’m just wondering if weddit woes are weally weal.

Go in peace.

I explained the “trying” in the same sentence. Are you suffering from buffering? I’m considering buying a gun as well. I spoke with a friend in law enforcement who has a range, offers instructions on safe use of firearms. I have many friends that are Democrats, and they scare me as much as the friends—quite a few Dems included—who lawfully and peacefully own guns. That is to say, not at all. Here’s the good news for the “take away guns” crowd, I’m also thinking about buying a motorcycle, since 1985. Chances are good I’ll procrastinate in perpetuity. Invite people with other points of view into your life. Ratchet the anger down a few notches. The life our friend apparently chooses to pursue is good for everyone except those who want to divide. As you go, others may go as well. It’s the human condition.

Dude, it’s Weddit weal.

I think @Over 29 years of fanhood really falls more into the “I try to live a life of inclusion and respect for others” category. It’s probably hard to see with your eyes closed and your mouth running about everybody else’s limitations. Sometimes it’s ok to just acknowledge that someone else is trying.

It’s been quite a journey tonight. Tucker Carlson to CVS to riots are like hurricanes to Trump to Obama to Christie to Praeger U to Dr. Carol Swain. All in just an hour or two.

It drives me nuts. I can’t recall from the video, but seems to me there were 4 or 5 people in the video. Let’s recap who stepped up to save this girl: Person 1, nothing. Person 2, nothing. Person 3, nothing. Person 4, nothing. Person 5, fighting for her life. Reporters in natural habitat: Why was the officer so slow? Why was he so fast? Why did the officer not shoot at a calf or foot, (as we know, there are no arteries in a leg). Why do you train officers to try and stop the loss of life through application of deadly force? Why not just yell “NO KNIFE BULLYING!”? The mayor needed to nut up and say, “The loss of life is tragic, but we can’t allow people to stab others in the neck and it appears the officer did what he could to prevent that.”. Sorry, I defer to young lady here. And it’s perfectly acceptable to try and figure out how things went so wrong for her, the mental health Issues and the like, but jeesh, you’d think a forced tracheotomy to a person who doesn’t want or need one would be enough here.
