  1. Past hour
  2. That rare combination of size and experience almost always leads to high end college offers.
  3. In my opinion it is legal in Texas to draw a firearm to let the other person know that you will use it if necessary. Of course, that kind of flies in the face of the repeated comments I have heard (including some handgun license instructors) that say, if you pull a weapon, then you had better use it or you will go to jail. I believe it depends on the situation. Texas actually addresses this issue in chapter 9 of the Texas Penal Code on self-defense. This Section talks about drawing a weapon in order to scare the other person from needing to be dealt with in a more serious manner. Sec. 9.04. THREATS AS JUSTIFIABLE FORCE. The threat of force is justified when the use of force is justified by this chapter. For purposes of this section, a threat to cause death or serious bodily injury by the production of a weapon or otherwise, as long as the actor's purpose is limited to creating an apprehension that he will use deadly force if necessary, does not constitute the use of deadly force. Under 9.04 the “threat” of force is justified “when the use of force is justified”. So if a person reasonably believes that he in danger and the use of force or deadly force is justified, so is the threat to use it. That seems overwhelmingly logical. If you are justified in taking another person‘s life in self-defense, why would only threatening him be a crime but killing him not? The Texas law then specifically says that if you have the justification to defend yourself, the threat that you will in fact defend yourself, including up to deadly force, is not a crime if the threat was limited to scaring the heck out of the person (creating an apprehension) to make him stop. There is always the issue of the threat against you being a reasonable belief. If for example, a person walks up to you in a parking lot and ask for money to buy a sandwich, I believe you would be hard-pressed to make a Jury believe that you were reasonably in fear of your life because a homeless person wanted to eat. On the other hand if you were in your 70s, and some big guy is charging towards you and saying, I’m about to stomp a mud hole in you, would you be a reasonable fear? A person must take him into Account that deadly force in Texas does not mean death, but can also mean serious bodily injury. Serious bodily injury can be the loss or protracted loss of a bodily organ or member so a broken hand that puts your arm in a cast for four weeks is almost certainly going to be seen at deadly force. Also note, the Texas law on self defense says that if evidence of self defense is presented to the jury, the state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that it was NOT self defense. So in a case, like this a person says (not sure of the details) that, yes he drew a gun because he reasonably believed that he was in danger of serious bodily injury by a person approaching him angrily after the person was told to stop several times. Would he reasonably believe that he is in danger of being seriously injured and does the DA believe or convince the grand jury beyond a reasonable doubt that he knew that need was not in danger? Without actually knowing anything other than what is in the media, I would think that he would not be indicted because there is not enough evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that he was not unreasonable, fear of serious injury. It is my opinion that many people hear that he drew a gun and automatically say that is a crime. As we can see by the Texas law listed, that is not always true.
  4. Part of it is the offensive line is much better at run blocking than pass blocking. The two DT’s for Buna had pressure on the OF QB most of the night.
  5. 1.) Epstein 2) Family backed Cryptocurrency platform originating from foreign individuals with legal history. 3)Gov. Loans and military contracts for start up linked to members of his family. 4) Market manipulation Then this: [Hidden Content] You now know the plan.
  6. If all teams played perfect, nobody would win.
  7. 10 straight points for Lake Creek here in the 3rd Qtr. 23-17 Hornets still lead.
  8. Rivalry games are the hardest games to predict. And knowing the history of the rivalry the game could and probably go in a different direction than anyone thinks it.
  9. Grudge match in Minnesota. Beats the heck out of the prima donna games.
  10. I guess I’ll never get an answer. Blanket pardons like but but Biden should take care of that. Then what?
  11. Accountability to all his corruption.
  12. Looking at how the two teams have played common opponents in back-to-back weeks, the spreads aren’t much different. But, I’m thinking it’s going to come down to who controls the pace/tempo the best. This year, PAM would probably prefer a clock control, lower scoring game. This year, LP would probably prefer a higher scoring game where PAM has to play catch-up. I believe the Dawgs are getting some folks back from injury. Not all, because at least one OL I know of is out for the year. Has been since game 1 I think. Computers will probably pick PAM bigly. I will pick LP.
  13. Just sad how you down play CNN, the Hill, MSNBC and everything not fox as opinion but when it fits your narrative it is displayed as facts. No one is trying to one you. Go back and read your responses to articles you don't like that report on your dear 👑 for said Media.
  14. I can say this.OF qb is probably the worst ive seen for being a 4 year starter with that size and experience.
  15. Don't blame him. Lumberton is pretty good at it too. Probably even closer than OF
  16. So you're saying LP wins next week??? Look @OlDawg
  17. You wouldn't be undefeated if you still played La Porte or North Shore!🤣🤣 Not the Donkey Stompin I was predicting but we'll call it one anyways.
  18. #55 papillon had to move back to center.but, I'll give HF coaching staff the edge too.bcz, if we didn't learn anything last week.even though w.o played Carthage Abt even til half.then Carthage put on a coaching clinic!!I don't know if you realize Carthage had a couple of freshmen that played well.bcz, they were put I position to make plays.#13 and one of there dlinemen were freshman.surratt is the best coach in the state.he can do it with less talent any year.

  21. If Republicans win the House of Representatives and the Senate in the 2026 Midterm Elections, I'm going to give all Adult Citizens in the United States of America, $5,000.
