  1. Are those numbers for a particular period or for a single night? Hard to discern if the data is meaningful or just some propaganda.
  2. Yep. Just trying to cause a spark, so I can point out the stupidity of the post.
  3. So have over 51 million others...
  4. I’m not trying to stir any pots, but I heard Livingston and Huffman and Silsbee were all better than Jasper.
  5. @ladybug33 I love your positivity, but that’s a relative comment. “Better than what?” would be my question.
  6. The music may not be for everyone, but the words speak volumes.
  7. There’s a song by an alternative heavy metal band named Tool. They have a song called “7empest” pronounced Tempest. The lyrics below remind me of all their very questionable behind the scenes behavior. Heat lighting flash, but don't blink. MisleadingTranquility ruseYou're gonna happen againThat's what I thinkFollow the evidenceLook it dead in the eyeYou are darknessTrying to lull us in, before the havoc begins, into a dubious state of serenityActing all surprised when you're caught in the lieWe know betterIt's not unlike you, it's not unlike youWe know your natureBlame it all on the bastards when you're blowing outShame on youShame on you nowNo amount of wind could begin to cover up your petulant stench and demeanorCalm as cookies and cream, so it seemsWe're not buying your dubious state of serenityActing all surprised when you're caught in the lieWe know betterIt's not unlike you, it's not unlike youWe know your natureCalm before the torrent comesCalm before the torrent comesCalm before the torrent comesCalm before the tempest comes to reign all overDisputing intentions invites devastationA tempest must be true to its natureA tempest must be just thatA tempest must be just thatA tempest must be just thatA tempest must be just thatA tempest must be just thatA tempest must be just thatA tempest must be just thatA tempest must be just thatControl, your delusionInsane and striking at randomVictim of your certainty, and therefore your doubt's not an optionBlameless, the tempest will be just thatSo try as you may, feeble, your attempt to atoneYour words to erase all the damage cannotA tempest must be just that
  8. SillyWilly tried to sneak in.
  9. Good job Lions. Way to go!
  10. Getting in line for Senior Night. Good luck Raiders and a safe game for both!
  11. A lot of times they’ll play during the day or on weekends. Hopefully it’ll all work out.
  12. Not so much. But I do smell a 1st round exit by either team no matter what happens. If Vidor wins, they will no doubt be happy with a losing district season. Hell, I know Lumberton would. But dot you remember who said, “I fully expect the Vidor Pirates to win their first outright DC since the ‘70s...” I guess we both get to be disappointed.
  13. I think we are on the same basic page, but I’m not mistaken. I know a large number of black & white roofers, form carpenters, finishers, drywall guys and painters. I will grant you, I know as many or more Hispanics that hold those jobs too. My son painted houses, spread sod and shucked shingles for the last 2 summers. He doesn’t have a choice. Daddy said...
  14. It’s not my opinion. It’s mere fact. There are some restrictions on firearms for illegal non-citizens just like there are for felons or those with mental disorders. My mom’s first husband, a marine, was killed in Viet Nam. His parents were illegal, but he was not. He was the father to my older sister who is half Mexican. I have no issue with immigrants whatsoever, and I am in agreement that the process is a disaster, both procedurally and cost wise. I was just stating that some but not all of the Bill of Rights pertain to non-citizens and illegal immigrants. Including restrictions on firearms. I do take exception to your comment about not knowing any white or black kids who are “willing to work as a carpenter, roofer, mason, laborer, body man, farm worker, concrete finisher, etc.... we need people willing to do those jobs, just like we always have.” I know literally hundreds of them. Regardless, just because your willing to perform an undesirable task doesn’t give you the right to citizenship. I know you’re not saying that, but many do.
  15. So change the process. I do t disagree with your premise. There still has to be a safe, fair and legal process that is adhered to. Open borders is not a safe or fair or legal process. Most, but not all of these rights apply to illegal immigrants. Like the right to bear arms. Their are limitations even on citizens of this particular right. But you are very correct - generally in the Bill of rights, people means people and not citizens.
  16. Definitely not.
  17. Regardless of whatever shakes out, Biden wins. Democrats and secretly Republicans will see to it. Notice you haven’t heard of the egregious Biden laptop scandal in a few days? Nobody cares about truth or justice.
  18. Huffman by 10
  19. I agree. But what I don’t understand is why it matters. They will continue to count the votes and the true winner will be named at some point, correct?
  20. I sure hope you’re right. I just can’t see it with all the BS. Even his own party is suspect.
  21. No, I do not.
  22. That’s the most frustrating part.
  23. Unfortunately, that’s not true. I wish it was.
