I’m not in total disagreement with some of your points. I just think that some are a little harsh, and also it’s more of a wish list because neither side will ever get on board with probably any of the points above. 1. 100% agree 2. Good idea maybe, but not feasible 3. We already discussed. Maybe need to redefine offenses. Also, saying “never” is a difficult stance to take. If a person that just came into the country steals a loaf of bread to feed his wife and kids while he is working his butt off but hasn’t gotten paid yet, I’m not ready to totally cut him off. 4. This would necessitate an extension to the military person’s family, as well. If a person agrees to the 4 year stint in the service, his family would have to be allowed immediate citizenship too. 5. This is good in theory, but many of the people could be a benefit to our country given the chance. By and large, the vast, majority are coming over here for the opportunity to better their lives financially. I’m not saying they should be allowed perpetual welfare (like many current citizens in this country already abuse), but perhaps they could have a limit of benefits. 6. I actually agree. I just think that it will never come to fruition since it would require a constitutional amendment.

I wish that were true. It’s painfully apparent that the search for truth is not as important as ideology and left vs right. Both sides have their heads so far up their asses, it’s hard to see a beacon of truth.

And again…nothing will happen.

You do realize that some of your proposals will require constitutional amendment. For example, “Jus soli” (right of the soil) allows for immediate citizenship in the 14th Amendment. That’s how slaves and slave children were allowed to be citizens and eventually free citizens. It’ll never happen. There’s a couple more on there that seem a little exorbitant. Unless, of course, you think that a simple public intoxication offense should ban one from becoming naturalized for life.

Marked or unmarked? I believe there are several types. I know there are marked ones like you see at an an intersection with lines marking the area to cross. There are some like I have seen near MD Anderson in the Houston Medical district that are in the middle of a street (not relegated to an intersection in other words) and then there are some that may be unmarked, but they are still crosswalks nevertheless. I'm sure there may be others, but I know the ones above exist.

Example: I'll say, "No, it's not" Then you say, "Yes, it is" Ok, I'll start... Two different things? No it's not!

I have a somewhat different take on the situation. I have plenty of sympathy when I put myself and my family in their shoes. As a human race, I even feel some responsibility. However, entry into this country must be lawful. There are boundaries and laws for a reason. So far, neither side has the answer. The current admin's response is the worst one yet...

Nothing will happen.. as usual.

1. It's a whitewash by politicians to show that they are trying to do something. It won't accomplish a damn thing. 2. A crowded hallway in a school with a short barreled shotgun that can spray a dozen #1 buckshot pellets is more effective over the AR-15 in my opinion, and I agree, the law won't deter these crimes from happening. It may change the weapon of choice or just increase rifle theft. Until the real problem is addressed which I believe is mental health, then none of this goes away.

I would say "no violation" if you already entered the intersection under yellow.

Look... High School football-wise, there is little or nothing to talk about currently. Let 'em go at it! Lol.

Vidor has a nice weight room and an excellent strength and conditioning program. Oldschool2 is just regurgitating things he picked up on the playground, I suppose. Trying to sound cool, but nothing specific to address = silly post.

That's pretty awesome! Thanks for that.

I don't understand your comment, sir.

No, I think his head coaching record speaks for itself. Sounds like he's a great assistant, but possibly not HC material... Pass.

Then you must feel that a VP (and somehow now the President of the United States of America) accepting money from China, et. al. shouldn't be sloughed off by the government, legacy media, Left wing Americans, etc. A double standard indeed!

They need all the practice they can get…

LCM is… 😎

And all along I thought the topic heading "Nederland 2023" was referring to football. To say the most recent conversation / bashing is a football topic is reaching at best. To get things back on topic, Nederland is going to pretty much suck this upcoming year. Now, can we stay on topic?

I hunt hogs with an AR-15 in .223 Long range hunting in West Texas I'll use an AR-10 in .308

Apples and oranges friend. I’m not saying I wholeheartedly agree with the death penalty, but capital punishment and abortion are two very different topics.

Somebody got they azz choked. "Under Texas assault law, if a person assaults someone that is a family member, dating partner, or a household member the assault charge is a Third Degree Felony if the person accused of assault is said to have intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly impeded the normal breathing or circulation of the blood by applying pressure to a person's throat or neck or by blocking the person's nose or mouth. If the person accused has a prior conviction or probation for domestic violence, then the new Impeding Breathing case can be enhanced to a Second Degree Felony." -Luster Law Firm Webpage

I guess if doing "just fine" means finishing 2nd or 3rd in district then out by the 2nd round of playoffs, then yes.

Nobody said anything about Peevey’s record. The topic is LCM 2023. And LCM 2023 will not have enough. Hope that answers your question.
