I think the only thing GCM has is the RB (Bright) they got from LP. He was 2nd Team All-District last year for us. But, I think Kingwood can shut down a single back threat. Their D was decent.

Was the video before or after? I thought it said before? I was confused. I thought it was after at first also. But, I saw a profound limp in the very beginning of the video when I thought it said 'before.'

Thoughts on Kingwood? I really like the Wehby kid. Hinson is a pretty solid passer to me also. I think they can compete pretty well for that 4th spot. They played LP tough.

Ouch

Goose Creek and Pasadena. I don’t know what’s going on with these teachers nowadays. [Hidden Content]

Kingwood has a good squad. The fight between them and King for that 4 spot is going to be epic again. If watching, watch that Wehby kid. I think he was #13 if I remember right.

The other side of sports. [Hidden Content]

Definitely a limp.

According to press reports, his children and wife were in attendance.

I guess young Mr. Kirk knew more about what was going on in our colleges/universities than most of us, and was trying to engage students who are somewhat captive of their instructors. Hard to believe this stuff is being allowed until caught. It’s way past time for this type stuff to end. I don’t remember any of this crap when I was going. Where did these people come from?

Good opinion piece IMHO. Granted, I didn’t know that much about Charlie Kirk as I only saw him occasionally on Fox Business. He seemed okay on those short pieces. Fox Business in the morning (Varney & Co.) and morning local news is all we watch. So, not really as much politics as elsewhere. Here’s the piece from a Gen Z viewpoint: [Hidden Content]

Scary indeed. Of course, I’d also be remiss if I didn’t mention that Trump didn’t order flags at half staff for the Minnesota lawmakers’ deaths. This is the kind of stuff that gets fringe people inflamed as well. It will be blasted over MSM. He has a way of stepping into it.

If anyone wonders where some of this comes from, it’s not just Ivy League. I think the X post says Dean of Student Conduct. Ironic. Don’t have X. So, harder for me to make out exactly. [Hidden Content]

Reporting is saying the shot was only 142 yards. This is the 2nd time—recently—someone with ill intent was able to get elevated at about that close a distance to a target at an outside gathering. Seems like security would check these areas more carefully now. Would seem to be an obvious thing to do…

Saying unspent rounds have something about trans rights & fascist writing on them. Not clear on it all yet. Still kinda early reporting I think. [Hidden Content]

Looks like he was just a poor shot. Saying rifle was .30-06. If sighted in at 100 yards, should have been true if just an occasional shooter. Could be rifle was sighted at 200, and he wasn’t that proficient.

As careless as the shooter appears to be, they should be able to track the gun registration. Still bet it’s a low end Remington 223. This really was a short range shot if less than 300 yards.

That’s why I said a .223. Probably had plenty for the shooting range. They’re cheap & plentiful. No questions are asked when bought because they’re thought of as a range round. While an accurate round with little kickback, he probably didn’t realize their weight wouldn’t be the best for the range. Pro would know that. We’ll see if they ever release those details.

Somehow, the bolt action rifle found will morph into a "high powered assault rifle". The role of social media for clicks will never be discussed, nor will the role of corporate profits in our news organizations. Very few will probably question how safe their kids are walking across college campuses all across this country, and First Amendment freedoms of free and open face-to-face discourse will take another hit. The gun control discussion will take front and center, and distract from everything else. Then, not only will we have lost the First, we'll again be in danger of losing the Second. The deer rifle will become an automatic weapon of war--with an oversized clip--within a week.

Welp…I was wrong. It didn’t take until this afternoon for the conversation to turn to gun control. [Hidden Content]

This is nothing compared to some of the other stuff I'm seeing on social media, and in comment sections.

I try to always give varied sources. One is official, one was current events, and the last is after action investigative reporting.

It's being reported they are looking for a young, college-aged student. Plenty of video. They have recovered a bolt action rifle that was tossed. As I said earlier, someone experienced with hunting. Not a professional hit. I expect to hear something about a .223 as more news breaks on the story.

Without taking away from this tragic episode, I was looking for the thread about these shootings by the conservative Christian murderer. I can't seem to find it. [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content]
