  1. Carthage advances with a 1-0 win.
  2. All you do is fearmonger. You post stuff from bad sources, or even worse, Twitter, and you only make anti-vax posts. I’ve completely refuted several of your erroneous posts, some with your own sources, and you couldn’t even rebut it, but just stonewalled by asking the same irrelevant, unrelated questions over and over. If you weren’t anti-vaccine, you would post “important” information for and against it, as there is plenty of both. I don’t care if you get the vaccine or not, and I don’t care what others think of me getting the vaccine. It’s ironic that you compared me to Lebron, as you’re the one that posts knee-jerk opinions with little or no basis in fact, and do so based solely on your political beliefs. Lebron is also a good comparison for you because you’re not even the GOAT of that on this website, but only #2. And yes, I’ve got a diaper you can change. It’s full of your opinions of me.
  3. That's right, but wetnurse Realville says it's Realbad, and everyone who gets vaccinated is going to die, and so does that doctor on youtube, so everyone should be super worried.
  4. Crazy stuff. Wonder what happened. Hope it's not another Blaine Padgett type deal.
  5. I feel like there is way too much effort put into making sure these executions are humane. Too much emphasis has been put into a painless process by lethal injection. It's one thing to ban criminals from being tortured, although I'm fairly certain some public torturing would greatly reduce the numbers of sex crimes committed against children. So no torture, but do I care if a child murderer "feels it" for a couple of minutes when he's electrocuted or shot? No, I do not. Personally, I hope it hurts like hell and they know (and can feel) exactly what's happening to them right up until the very end. All that being said, there should be ZERO doubt that someone is guilty if they're going to be executed. A lot of crooked stuff went on back in the day, and innocent people have been murdered by our justice system. Protecting innocent people from being executed is the only argument that holds any weight with me at all from those who are opposed. In today's climate and with today's technology the odds of that are almost nil compared to 30 years ago.
  6. You understand correctly, but there’s been plenty of talk about him trying to do something bigger like Parler. I also agree with most of what you state here. My point was just if a large group of people turned to him for all of their news and information, he would definitely use it for his own good, rather than the people following him.
  7. That was what I highlighted when I quoted 5gallonbucket. He literally said “the problem would be people not dropping those other liberal media to follow just his.” And my point was if trump became the only source of information for his most ardent followers, that would definitely turn into a way for him to make things better for himself, and he definitely would not use it to the best interest of his followers.
  8. It's still really confusing to me that there are a lot of intelligent people willing to do this. Trump didn't do a bad job as president, but his entire adult life he's done whatever he could to make himself money. He's also not a conservative. See the previous statement I made (his entire adult life he's done whatever he could to make himself money). It suited him (and made him money) to become a conservative. So he became a "conservative" republican, a "conservative" president, and now he's somehow become the messiah for the ultra-conservative right. Bare in mind, I voted for him twice, so don't get your panties all bunched up, but the idea of a political figure holding some type of monopoly over the media for a large group of people doesn't sound like the greatest idea, especially when that political figure's #1 goal is to make money for himself. I can't imagine a scenario when one of the most self-serving businessmen in modern history could become the ONLY news source for millions of people, and he wouldn't take complete advantage of it. But hey, do what you want to do. It would probably as reliable a source of news as some of the sites posted in this political forum.
  9. Because facebook already exists and has 2.7B users. Zuckerberg didn't have a following, but facebook was a fresh idea. Like I said, if you start Trumpbook and have a few million users, plus nobody willing to host the platform, and most companies unwilling to invest or sponsor it, it's not going anywhere. Like YOU said, Trump is a smart businessman, and he knows a losing idea when he sees one.
  10. Depends on how you look at it. HJ knocked them out of their rhythm, but didn't create a lot of turnovers with it because canyon had so many solid ball handlers. HJ gave that game away at the end. I still get grumpy thinking about it.
  11. I don't think the money is in it for him. I get that he's got his diehard fanbase, but that base isn't nearly as big as people think. 10 million people? 20 million people maybe? A decent portion of those aren't going to get on it due to various factors. Factor in a big tech lockout, and the amount of money he'd have to invest to host it, and I don't see it happening. there are 2.7 Billion active users on facebook. 1 Billion instagram users. 265 million daily snap chatters. What would his site do? a tiny fraction of that.
  12. There wasn't anything misleading about what went on at HF. Multiple coaches were fired, and others resigned. I'm fairly certain the district has or will deal with lawsuits over that one. My neighbor (family, kind of) and the son of another good friend were two of the athletes affected, one of whom ended up at a hospital in Houston in the ICU with rhabdomyolysis. He was hospitalized for 9 days, and still has problems to this day. A coworker's son was the third affected, and was messed up bad enough he missed two varsity soccer games. Multiple other athletes were hospitalized with rhabdo. That was ridiculous, and careers were affected. I'm not sure what "turned out to be misleading" about that situation. That said, I don't know what happened with this stuff in Kirbyville. EDIT: Unless this happened to ANOTHER coach at HF after this whole deal that I'm talking about?
  13. Now that I'm vaccinated, I hope to be able to leave the mask at home when I return back to work after the summer. I appreciate the reasoning behind wearing them, but I'm more than willing to teach without one now that there's only about a 5% chance of me still being infected, and a near 0% chance of me becoming significantly ill. That's why I took the vaccine in the first place. I'm ready for some normalcy.
  14. It's kind of one of those dumb cases where the laws they've violated were definitely not put in place to stop the stupid things that they were doing. Don't let her walk the stage for graduation, fire her mom, and call it good.
  15. a lot of them couldn't do it, and for a lot of the same reasons.
  16. she should be fired, and if possible charged for lying to internal affairs.
  17. What happened with him and St. Pius X?
  18. As a moderate, I try to keep an open mind. I don't immediately write someone off just because they're a democrat, although I vote republican. I wasn't happy to have a democrat elected, but I was at least okay with the fact that Biden has a long history of being fairly moderate. I didn't like trump at all as a person, but I could touch on several things that he did that I thought were beneficial to the country. 100 days into Joe's presidency and I can't say the same. Apart from undoing several of the things that I felt Trump was doing right, he hasn't done much else besides speak jibberish and somehow fall UP a flight of stairs. We'll see how this turns out, I guess. One thing's for sure... all of you guys better be rooting for him to survive four years. If the VP takes over things are going to be a whole lot scarier.
  19. you're entitled to your opinion, as i'm entitled to mine. I kind of have a hybrid view on it, to be honest. I think it's a serious issue, but that it's also been used to instill a greater fear than necessary.
  20. It's a chart that has projected trends all the way through the year 2100. It's not uncommon for charts to continue with trends into the future. That said, they clearly have not had the opportunity to adjust the chart for Covid, which is why they put the disclaimer at the top. And the numbers completely support "the narrative being pushed". I showed you on another thread that the large increase in deaths from 2019 to 2020 in the US were very similar to the amount of claimed covid deaths in the US during that time.
  21. I would think so, but who knows. If someone has it twice, it's going to be reported to the health department twice, so it would only make sense. But not everything makes sense these days.
  22. This is the same chart Realville tried to use awhile back. The most recent years are based on pre-covid UN projections, not on real numbers. Just like I told him when he posted it: It literally says directly about the graph: "NOTE: All 2020 and later data are UN projections and DO NOT include any impacts of the COVID-19 virus." I went through in another post and provided accurate and easy to navigate data that showed that there was in fact a very large spike in deaths last year that coincided very closely to the amount of reported deaths in the US for 2020.
  23. I'm not upset about anything, but I don't really understand what you're trying to say here.
