Say what you want, but there's a lot more money in it for oil and big business from the right to deny global warming than there is for scientists on the left to say it exists.

Yup, almost. Harden was actively losing them games. Curry kinda started heating back up at the end of the game last night.

Astros in the process of crashing back to earth, while the rangers are playing their best ball in two years. Here's hoping we have a texas team representing us in the playoffs this year.

Curry has looked ALMOST as bad this series as Harden did last series.

Just saw where the needville catcher cleaned out two runners crossing home plate without the ball. Dirty as hell. Congrats to HH on the championship, but even more so on keeping their composure. I gotta be honest, the second time it happened, I would've cleaned her clock.

The Cavs had to steal that one when they had the chance. I don't see them winning 4 of 6 against golden state.

It's a tough line to toe. I have a special needs student in my class this year that has benefitted greatly from being in a regular classroom. That being said, in some instances, the extra time and effort spent on that one child has taken away what I can do with my other 16 students. It's a tough balancing act.

​Really? People are careless with guns sometimes. It's a matter of numbers, and if you arm that many people, someone is going to end up doing something stupid or careless. Cops have far more extensive training, and they still occasionally screw up and shoot the wrong people or have mishaps with their guns. Awhile back a woman was killed when she came up and hugged a cop from behind and somehow pulled the trigger on the gun he had in a shoulder rig. If you have enough guns involved, these things will happen. I'm all for arming teachers, as I've stated several times, but if you were to arm them, it's not a matter of IF one of these incidents happens, but When. Personally, I'm fine with the trade off. But you know the media will have a field day every time it happens.

i'll say this: if you were to arm 2 teachers at every school in the US, it would amount to well over 200,000 armed teachers. with that many teachers, you'd have a handful of incidents a year that could possibly put kids in danger. perhaps a careless teacher leaves a gun out on her desk and a child gets ahold of it, or one goes off while she's digging around in her drawer. perhaps a teacher with a gun overreacts to some sort of fight or intruder at school and shoots someone she maybe shouldn't shoot. those instances would start to happen (albeit not very often), and we would hear about them in the media. never mind if arming teachers all but ends the era of mass school shootings, you better believe that the media would seize onto any mistake that a teacher made. and that being said, the rare instance where a teacher in that situation did make a mistake would be a big deal, and is not an unreasonable argument against having them in school. still, I'd feel better if a teacher or two at my (hypothetical) child's school was armed (after sufficient training).

Not really. He just kind of blew me off. A lot of folks aren't entirely comfortable with the idea of guns in a school, and I can see that side of the argument as well.

nice!

agree. it's not practical or affordable for every school to have a fulltime police officer, but it's not impractical to think that every school has at least a teacher or two that is capable of handling a firearm. on top of that, many teachers would be willing to run towards danger to protect their students. I emailed our (ex) superintendent a couple of years ago after Sandy Hook asking about the possibility of our district sending a teacher or two from every campus to training to become qualified to carry on campus, but I was politely shot down.

​Can't a guy be historically bad just for the sake of being historically bad anymore?

Yup. Figured this one was over. Him out is their only chance.

I told y'all the series was over when the rockets lost game 1...

I'm wondering why you're so familiar with me!

[Hidden Content] a list of the things Calcasieu Parish is trying to apply for from the government through this program... One CBRNE (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, Explosives) detection kit, and 27 bulletproof vests. Glad that we're trying to put a stop to police receiving all of these unnecessary items.

really? I'd rather have a big penis than a dead hog... ;)

we were supposed to get some industrial strength military spotlights to help, but Obama put the ixnay on that.

this was definitely a country boy's joke. and people that are outraged about the animal itself being killed have never had one destroy a deer feeder, yard, or garden. we shoot every single one we see, whether we plan on eating it or not.

What a finish!

I thought it was funny. If the pig was still alive, that would be cruel. If they stole someone's livestock, that would be wrong. But a dead wild pig? That's a good wild pig.

Heck of a comeback!

Nothing wrong with pocket knives, but if you use them in a brawl...

I gotta stop reading the comment sections on some of these websites. there are a lot of stupid people out there. Not talking about this site: I mean the comment sections below news articles and whatnot. by the way, the count is up to 118 pistols recovered, along with nearly 150 knives, plus chains and miscellaneous stuff.
