  1. Past hour
  2. It’s nothing to move apartments across cities in the Dallas and Houston areas
  3. Today
  4. The defense team says that they are going to claim self-defense.
  5. No Blacks on the jury.
  6. Jury picked today
  7. I write a response and look at it a couple of days later and sometimes think that it doesn’t make sense. You know what you’re thinking about but it doesn’t come out that way in writing.
  8. Terrible. I was hoping by the news saying it was serious and not critical the person would survive.
  9. Yesterday
  10. I get carried away sometimes.
  11. Tony would be so pumped
  12. I wonder what @BMTSoulja1 has to say about this? BTW, that one in serious condition died. 17 year old.
  13. An innocent bystander murdered a couple of days ago by teenagers having a shootout in a parking lot. Not to be outdone, three more people were shot today with one a serious condition. Beaumont seems to have exploded in violence. Is Beaumont becoming the new Memphis or Detroit?
  14. Couple on the hook but not one reeled in yet for Leggett. Not saying who right now.
  15. I'll never understand the amount of time and energy people put into talking, debating, and arguing about politics, as if politicians truly have our best interests in mind. One day, people will realize that it doesn't matter whether you're Republican, Democrat, liberal, conservative, white, Black, brown, or anything else. At the end of the day, none of these politicians—from the local level all the way to the president—don't have the public's best interests at heart.
  16. The Supreme Court recently ruled that federal courts could not order states to gerrymander districts to create majority minority districts. In the case of Louisiana v. Callais the Supreme Court said that a state could not be ordered to gerrymander districts in order to create more minority representation districts. To do so would violate the Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause. Some courts and people felt that discrimination was okay if it was against White voters. So in Callais, Louisiana was allowed to redraw their districts. Up pops Alabama. In a challenge to the Voting Rights Act, a special master was appointed to redraw the Alabama districts about 3 years ago which had been set by the state legislature. The federal special master disregarded the legislature and drew the state districts by gerrymandering in order to force more minority representation. After the decision by the Supreme Court in Callais to not have federal courts decide state districts, another challenge was made in Alabama to enforce the federal approved districts, again ignoring those enacted into law by the legislature and the decision in Callais. The federal court in the Northern District of Alabama stepped up and again interfered with the Alabama legislature map. It was like Callais never happened. So naturally, there was an appeal to United States Supreme Court. They ruled yesterday that the federal court in Alabama needs to get back its lane and butt out. Alabama’s district map will remain as the legislature drew it and not a federal court approved master.
  17. As with many things, this is actually highly misleading. The SP500 is weighted, and the Top 10 stocks are all high tech Googles, Apples, Nvidia's and the like. They currently make up about 40% of the SP500 to reflect their power over the economy. This skews every other sector. They didn't have this sort of clout until fairly recently with the take-off of AI.
  18. Clay Travis @ClayTravis · 14h In June of 2022, gas prices averaged over $5 a gallon, inflation was 9.1%, the murder rate was 6.3 per 100k & S&P 500 was 3675. Four years later gas is cheaper, inflation is roughly 3%, the murder rate is 4.0 per 100k, & the S&P 500 is 7600, more than double four years ago.
  19. That 2017 Silsbee team was crazy deep. A total of 11 players off that team went on to play the next level in either football or basketball. Not bad for a little ole small town 4A team.
  20. I am not sure what you mean by the extenuating circumstances and being charged correctly unless you are referring to passion or mitigating circumstances. A crime of passion has never been forgivable. I am not sure where you are going with it but there is no premeditation in the Texas Penal Code. There is only the culpable mental state. I agree about the potential of justice not being served. I have sat on three juries (federal civil jury, state felony and state misdemeanor) and hearing what some jurors say or ask behind closed doors is sometimes crazy. A juror will grab onto some minuscule point taken completely out of context and then it likely doesn’t matter anyway.
  21. Bush was electric. Probably my favorite high school player to watch.
  22. Maybe utilized was the wrong word…. developed to be utilized…. All u saw were games
  23. Data checks out according to Bureau of Labor Statistics reporting on May 16, 2026.
  24. 2017 team was the deepest Silsbee team I have ever seen (started attending games in the 82/83 season). 3 groups of 5 that could have started at most 4a schools. 2018 had the best starting 5. Just my humble opinion.
  25. Last week
  26. Trust me you haven’t seen more of the kid then me and taking with his family some of the D1 coaches that have offered him recently said he got the offer because he was UTILIZED MORE and they saw thing in him that they didn’t know he could do watching him play school ball
  27. Wow!
