WOSdrummer99 got a reaction from Mr. Buddy Garrity in 2023 Astros - Defending WS Champs
It won't be as often as before. Only making 2 trips to Division teams instead of 3. Hope by then we'll be 100%

They absolutely should NOT be prosecuted for just knocking on the wrong door.
They should be prosecuted for taking an innocent mans life, and trying to kill his wife before taking enough due diligence to make 100% sure they are confronting the right person at the right address before shooting to kill. Clearly there was doubt already in the air. Retreating until everything is 100% confirmed would have been the prudent course of action, and prevented this very preventable tragedy.
Do you think simply issuing a public apology while a grieving widow and horrified kids try to go on without a Dad is all that should be done?

A man lost his life due to a mix up. They went to 05 instead of 08. Yes someone should be held accountable.
I'm 1000 miles away, don't even know the guy. Yet it still angers me to see this continue. Senseless is word I hear too much to describe these incidents.
Where's the body cam that was released?

I think he will win the nomination barring anymore damning revelations (even though that doesn't seem to affect the Biden clan whatsoever), but I don't know if he can pull off a win...

Another one of those words to be avoided. Nobody? Some people, weren't working because of the pandemic. Designed to make the world's economy plummet and transfer as much wealth to the super rich as possible.
The only credit Biden gets is that he said the pandemic is over. Then Democratic states opened everything back up. Just more lies from politicians. Like Bush and the mission accomplished banner. Clinton, "I did not have..." well he did. Trump did plenty of shady stuff too. He knew what those good people were capable of during their peaceful protest. Then mix in a few Soros backed anti trumpers to that crowd. BAM!!!
This was all part of the play book. Next is the war that's about to ramp up just before the election. Not this current fake money laundering joke. The real thing. Did anyone hear what Xi Jinping told his troops?
Someone better figure out how to Make America Something Again. Or there won't be any America left.

Thanks, we try to watch as many Astros games as possible. Not really into watching all teams. If I liked the Red Sox/Yankees matchups, espn carries them all, it seems. We really enjoy the experience of going to Minute Maid Park…..win or lose, we have a good time.

Excellent answer. Also playing teams that run specific offense. One that you wouldn't see in district play but would need to be familiar with during the playoffs. And rivalry games of course.

Team Record Next Opp.
Lumberton 7-2 BC, Vidor, Open
Vidor 6-2 Open, Lumberton, Jasper
Bridge City 4-3 Lumberton, Jasper, WOS
Silsbee 5-4 WOS, Open, LCM
Jasper 3-4 LCM, BC, Vidor
LC-M 2-5 Jasper, WOS, Silsbee
WO-S 0-7 Silsbee, LCM, BC
With two and a half weeks left in regular season the playoff and DC is up for grabs. Lumberton playing pretty good ball and starting to gain confidence with their end of the season matchup with Vidor coming up. Vidor resting and keeping a eye on that match up with Lumberton and then closing out the season against Jasper. BC doing everything they can to keep pace with the front runners and a playoff spot. Silsbee is putting together some consistent games at the right time to make a charge for the playoffs. Jasper struggling down the stretch looking for some consistency to make a push at the end of the season. LCM has a ways to go but has started to go in the right direction. WOS is playing spoiler this late in the season.

If that is what people want for their neighborhood, okay. Don’t talk, don’t cooperate.
But then the complaints come out that it is someone else’s fault. The city, the police, the mayor or whoever, won’t protect the community.
The answer, a simple, no, you won’t protect yourselves. The city can offer the manpower and the county can prosecute but only if a witness steps forward or someone drops a dime on an anonymous phone call.
When I was in community policing as an assignment, I would tell every one of the more than a dozen community groups in our city, your neighborhood can absolutely be as peaceful as you want it. The problem is you have to actually want it and not just say the words, I wish I could sleep at night.
The problem is not the criminals. The problem is the people living there, who are not willing to lift a finger to stop it. Most of the time that lifting of a finger is simply placing a phone call.
Community policing started in Port Arthur from an informal group of Black men who started it on their own. A few friends got together and said we are tired of this crap in our small neighborhood. I think all of them were military veterans and most or maybe all had been to Vietnam. They did not ask for permission, they simply started walking as a group and confronting dope dealers hanging out.
After a while they approached the police department and asked for help. The chief called for a meeting with them I and other officers volunteered to be involved. That group of men called themselves AAMAN (we pronounced it “uh-manh”)/African American Men Against Narcotics.
They alone kicked off what would later have a very successful run of community policing. We applied and got a federal grant to specifically hire 9 officers to run the program of community groups.
That program was later ended as I guess political climates changed with money spent elsewhere and new priorities popped up but the 3 year federally paid program lasted about 15 years and was fairly successful.
The point being, a neighborhood can have as quiet of a neighborhood as they want.
As Officer Malone (Sean Connery) told Eliot Ness (Kevin Costner) a couple of times in the Untouchables…. “What are you prepared to do?”.
Many people aren’t prepared to do anything except complain.
