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’…..

I might’ve gotten in a fist fight over that. But maybe not if I was a cop.

J.C. Higgins was a name that covered a wide range of sporting goods. I had a J.C. Higgins basketball and baseball glove. I believe J.C. Higgins was a name use by Sears to market their products. Stevens was bought by Savage but I believe they still produced guns under the Stevens name. My recollection may be hindered by brain fog, but there it is. It seems we all shopped at Sears. Maybe we crossed paths and didn’t realize it. Lol

Alvarez is a proven winner at multiple stops....this is a great hire....absolute ball coach

I was at the game — #21 was clearly their best player, but he was also the reason they struggled. He took almost every shot and never looked to involve his teammates. You can’t win big when one guy dominates the ball for 32 minutes. I get the point about inexperience, but that’s not really what I saw. Plenty of teams start new varsity players and still function because the ball moves, guys touch it, and everyone stays engaged. When one player takes every shot, the rest of the team naturally checks out — that’s not a ‘cast’ problem, that’s a style‑of‑play problem. Confidence comes from involvement. If teammates never get real opportunities, of course they’ll look shaky. As for the officiating, it was fine. I’m not sure what fouls people expected, but it was pretty even on both sides. Tarkington’s #33 was warned multiple times for talking and eventually got hit with a tech. That’s on him, not the refs.

Let’s hope for a snowball effect with this….

Final Central Heights 48 Woodville 46 CH made contested 35 foot shot at buzzer to win.

Yes. He hit the two game winning FT's with 4 seconds left.

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 .....

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.

They hadn't blinked yet though.

Texas beat “The best team ever”….to hear them tell it. Lmao

Huntington 50 Diboll 49 Final

Heard many times 2019 LSU was the best college football team ever..could this Indiana team play with them? I think they could.

BC and Silsbee going to be fun to watch

Lumberton is down but they will compete. Finally got to watch them play, 15 point ball game at half. BC is really good I was impressed.

It was a 25 point point game almost the entire time.

Ain’t playing 3a basketball no more!!

Vidor 39 LCM 32. 1 point game with under a minute to go, just couldn’t make the plays to win it. LCM - Dayton Sterling 10 pts, Brodie Fisher 9 pts, outstanding defensive performance from Matthieu Pitre Vidor - Lugo 13 pts, Baker 9

Final 84-64 Orangefield

Final Chester 56 Brookeland 69 Brookeland had Beatty back. Smith could be back in 3 weeks.

These protesters are naming streets after Trump so no way the left can back them. TDS trumps all.

HF 80 Tarkington 51 Final

This lopsided foul count is about the only thing keeping this game from being busted open by 25+

#14 Williams can dunk. He dunked on HJ.

They do. Doesn't start and doesn't get a whole lot of minutes though he did get lot's tonight.

Ballgame.

Final 78-51 Silsbee

Looks like it may be a good game, so far.

My Remington pump .22 will shoot shorts, longs, and long rifle. Patent dates are 1909, 10, &12. Probably made around 1935.

Brings back memories, Ted Williams endorsed everything from baseball gloves to barbecue pits for Sears.

Next to the last paragraph..... The bill goes to the Senate, where it is expected to die, although it may help Republicans lay groundwork to work on a potential bipartisan solution to tame health insurance premiums, while dealing with the rampant waste, fraud, and abuse that comes with enhanced subsidies. Another thing is the Senate has enough Republicans that are lock step with Trump and do not have enough votes to override any VETO Trump may do.....

Nobody on either team is able to dunk.
