  1. Past hour
  2. Only 10 days into January - Not a good start to 2026.
  3. They REALLY need to teach "common sense 101" in grade school. It is mind boggling to read on social media the bogus legal theories on why the ice agent it guilty of murder and why the protestor was just trying to peacefully leave the scene.....The sad part it is not just idiot random posters, it is State Representatives and Government officials .....
  4. Today
  5. Out of likes….I’m sure you remember the Beaumont gang banger who was shot and killed by police at Jack-in-the-Box on MLK a few years back. He lunged his car at the officer and he opened fire. The perp’s bullet-proof vest didn’t save him. I believe the officer who killed him was somehow related to a female officer who was hit on the Delaware overpass, while on a traffic stop, and fell to her death a few weeks earlier. The gang banger’s death was ruled justified. People know they can’t use their vehicle as a weapon, but they do it anyway. Liberal mentality clogs the mind.
  6. Not kidding. Just blatant. Awful. I’ve seen “bad calls”. But just blatant disregard. Hats off to the HJ staff and players for keeping their cool in this one.
  7. In Plumhoff v. Rickard, the Supreme Court issued a ruling on a police vehicle chase that ended up in a parking lot with the suspect vehicle stopped briefly and surrounded by police cars or officers. The driver backed up in a U-turn and took off again, almost striking officers. The vehicle was then past all officers so none were in direct danger. Officers opened fire into the back of the fleeing vehicle, killing the driver and passenger. The ruling was unanimous that the use of force was lawful. Even though no officers were in direct line of the vehicle at that time, to continue the chase would endanger the public and officers. In Graham v. Connor the police mistakenly thought that Graham might have been involved in an armed robbery. When they stopped him, he was acting irrationally and jumping around outside of the car. The officers used force on Graham and I believe broke his foot. It turns out that Graham was having a diabetic crisis and was completely innocent. So the officers mistakenly stopped the vehicle that he was riding in and then mistook his serious medical crisis as resistance. Graham sued all the way to the Supreme Court. A unanimous Supreme Court ruling said that the officers’ use the force was reasonable under the circumstances as they appeared to be to the officers actually at the scene. In their writing, the Supreme Court said that the officers had to make split second decisions and it was not something that could be decided calmly months later in a judge’s chambers. It’s not difficult. If you use force against officers or if you are told to stop and you don’t, you might be opening yourself up to having lawful force or deadly force used against you. The Supreme Court does not appear to be sympathetic to people who resist because they believe in a cause. The First Amendment guarantees the right of the people peaceably to assemble. Blocking or obstructing the police or using force against them is not a peaceable assembly. Just sayin’…..
  8. Multiple fatal car accidents, a fatal plane crash, a man struck and killed by a train, a man electrocuted, a man committing suicide in a church parking lot after a police chase, and a kidnapping/shooting all in the course of 5 days. What the hell is going on in setx?
  9. I might’ve gotten in a fist fight over that. But maybe not if I was a cop.

  15. Thanks for the solid input. FYI this extremely small 4a team finished 3rd in district last year and lost in the playoffs to the state runner ups. If you have any actual valid input, I’m willing to talk basketball all day with you.
