    SmashMouth got a reaction from Reagan in Even More From The Friendly muslims!   
    Ma'am, I don't think he said all Muslims were like that. If I'm reading this right, he's referencing the terrorist Muslims. You know, the ones who commit murder & have no regard for anyone who doesn't follow their jihadist beliefs...

    We all know that each state has its own laws which can be very different, especially in endeavors like annexation or incorporation, so there is no telling what Louisiana law says.
    I don’t know but I doubt that there is a point of appeal for Baton Rouge to force St. George to be absorbed back into Baton Rouge by now giving them what they asked for years ago. “Oh, we lost? Well let’s just undo incorporation, ruled as legal by the Supreme Court (of LA)  by going back and giving them what they asked for”.
    There has to be a law allowing such an appeal.
    I think what I read about the lower court decisions which actually backed up Baton Rouge, they did not all rule that incorporation was illegal but that they did not think the city could have services up and running soon enough. So you have a court saying that sure you can split but only if we agree that you can provide services get enough. In Louisiana, who knows?
    I doubt that Texas has such a mechanism to allow a city to split, for example, could the west end of Beaumont say that they wish to make their own city against Beaumont’s objection? I doubt it. Certainly Beaumont could allow a city to be created as Port Arthur did with Bridge City and Taylor’s Landing. There is a huge difference in allowing and forcing which is what happened in Baton Rouge.
    Similar to the sometime discussed topic of Texas splitting off from the United States because they don’t like the way things are going, think if citizens in any city in the United States were allowed to create their own city, which could not be stopped by the parent city.
     That could get interesting!!
    Don't like what is happening in the south side of Chicago? Just de-annex and create your own city!!
    Anyway, I thought that it is an interesting story when the capital city splits in half.

    Interesting. I hadn't heard that. I bet it's hard to set up a new city.
    I wonder if Baton Rouge would be best served to appeal with the caveat of allowing the new ISD in the St. George area.

    Not many schools, if any in our area, have fall baseball teams. Kids play for teams outside of school during the fall if they want to.

    I played 4 years of college basketball... and knew at a very early age that it would be my passion.  I also played football.. and baseball in JH/HS.  During football/baseball seasons I got in a lot of basketball drills.  Before school, after practice, and on weekends.  I most definitely have a problem with using time for YOUR sport during time that's allocated for another sport.
    As I mentioned in an earlier post, focusing on a sport doesn't mean abandoning the others.  It just means finding extra time.
    Players that want to be great will do that.

    I think this whole discussion is getting overly hyped. My son played 3 sports and went on to play college football (still in school). I played 4 sports and went on to play college football. Neither of us (separated by 30+ years) got anything but support from our respective AD's and coaches.

    Can't blame the AD. Texas is a Football mecca. If an AD does poorly in football, but decent in baseball, he may be looking for another job soon. If he does great in football, then no one really cares what happens with baseball, generally speaking. He's trying to keep a job and bolster his resume' for the next chance to promote his career.

    I'm not convinced.  High school football is the best place for this, and if he actually wants responses, it shouldn't be an issue for me to move it, which is what I'm doing.  That said, I swear there was a thread on this very thing started before there.

    SmashMouth reacted to Separation Scientist in Columbia University Protest Response   
    There are limits. Like I said, what would happen to a white kid on a campus that walked around screaming "Death to blacks" and burning a cross? 
    Would the Constitution protect him? No way! He would be arrested for a Federal hate crime so fast his head would swim. Immeadiately expelled. Do prison time. DOJ, FBI, CIA, etc. would flip out. Conversely the HAMAS terrostists on the campuses today are being "arrested" then immeadiately released with NO CHARGES. 
    The Constitution, just like many Laws, are only applied when it fits the Liberal worldview.

    I think we can throw decency and morality out the window for the whole lot - both Left, Right & In Between. And since that can no longer be the barometer, I'm going to choose who I think is best. And it's not Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar,  Pramila Jayapal - I could keep going, but I think you get the point.

    Here's actually what he was quoted as saying:
    "United States and Italy are bound together by a shared cultural and political heritage dating back thousands of years to Ancient Rome."
    Several left wing nut job bloggers tried to make the (impossible) reach that Trump was claiming that the U.S. and Italy had been allies since Ancient Rome. 
    Trump simply asserted correctly that the two countries have a shared political-cultural heritage that dates to Ancient Rome, not that there were actual ties between two actual countries as far back as Ancient Rome.
    Perhaps a little research would bode you well.
