  1. It's tough enough for a male cop to wrestle with a beautiful bikini clad female and not be charged with indecency. I saw her refuse to get on the ground which is resisting. Like I said, not trying to take sides, but no one tries to view it from the cop's POV. Playing devil's advocate.

    ​Very true

  2. I would lean towards a personality flaw.  the 11 other officers appeared to handle themselves pretty well.

    ​I agree...I will say this about drawing his weapon.

    If you don't want a cop to pull his weapon on you, don't charge him like a maniac.

  3. Calipari has no chance.  It is quite apparent that, in his world, he works with and for only the 1%

    ​Neither does Perry, all he has done is run the state of Texas for years which doesn't even compare to the experience of Hillary.

    She's been a Senator and has done....hmmm.

    She's been Secretary of State while foreign relations ran smoothly with no problems....uh oh.

    She IS married to Bill...there you go, very qualified.

  4. The promise of plenty of free stuff is very difficult to overcome.  Hopefully, some will realize that nothing is free and decide there are better solutions.

    ​I'm afraid there won't be change until we can no longer support the "free" stuff and are forced to make some very difficult changes.

  5. ​is D.C. one of them as well? 

    ​Yep...I have been on the phone with Washington and Austin staffers (never talk to the actual Representatives)

    I can honestly say that the calls were mostly a waste of time.

  6. Anyone of you doing anything to get him out of office? ​

    Nothing to do about him...making folks aware that Hillary will be just as bad is about all we can do.

    Folks have to pay attention and know why they are voting for someone.

     

  7. @HuffingtonPost: Obamacare hasn't affected Republicans as much as they expected

    This is the hidden content, please

    ​Bogus poll...obamacare has affected lots of folks, Republicans and Democrats negatively, myself included.

    Doesn't take much research to verify that.

  8. Not really.  He just kind of blew me off.  A lot of folks aren't entirely comfortable with the idea of guns in a school, and I can see that side of the argument as well.

    ​Bottom line is that if you have one (or preferably more) competent and trained teachers, administrators and/or on campus security carrying firearms, the kids are safer, period.

    Plus, there is an immediate response when a threat shows up.  I know I'm preaching to the choir, but I just don't see the down side.

  9. agree.  it's not practical or affordable for every school to have a fulltime police officer, but it's not impractical to think that every school has at least a teacher or two that is capable of handling a firearm.  on top of that, many teachers would be willing to run towards danger to protect their students.  I emailed our (ex) superintendent a couple of years ago after Sandy Hook asking about the possibility of our district sending a teacher or two from every campus to training to become qualified to carry on campus, but I was politely shot down.

    ​Agree 100%

    Were you given any specific reason when turned down?
