  Which definition are you using?

  TVC talked you into becoming a cop?   lol......Congrats....you will make a good one!

  What exactly did I say that would make you think I was pulling a strawman.......nothing I said was untrue.....and there is a chance she could hold another contest.....so, my question is legitimate....and Garland is only 4 hours away......

  OK....I'll play your game.   Your "question" "what good is having a right if you cannot or do not exercise that right????"  Your rights should not be taken away. She had EVERY right to have that contest.  Because we are a free country, we are FREE to USE our rights or to not use them.  I am thankful that my girlfriend does not use her right to walk around topless.  So, I think I answered your question.....   Now answer mine.......   If she does it again with no security, would you participate and bring your family?

  Women have a right to go topless in Texas........   I also said she had a legal right.......   Let me ask you something.....   If she does it again with no security, would you participate and bring your family?   Me personally.....I would not. To me, drawing a picture of someone I don't believe in would not be worth the POSSIBLE risk. That does not take away my right to do so, I just choose to be cautious because I love my family.    I would hate to say, I lost my family to a terrorist because I wanted to piss him off and make fun of their God.......because I had the legal right.

  This statement tells volumes about your character.....

10 pages about this and you are still talking in circles.   I think we all agree she had a legal right to do that.....   I also agree it was not the smartest thing to do and she knew the risk. If that amazing cop would have missed and gotten killed, they would of had time to wipe out the entire place.....   There comes a time when the risk may not be worth the reward.......just because you can, doesn't mean you should......

If he was being "held" there should have been guards. I don't remember reading that they met any resistance.

  You are correct. Thug by Merriam Dictionary defines a thug as "A violent criminal".    His criminal record....   2005 - shoved a plain clothed undercover officer - charges dropped           -  had restraining order put on him by ex.....he put one on her as well   2013 - girlfriend said he pulled shotgun on her....later she asked for charges to be dropped   Now, If you want to call him Stupid, an idiot, or any other words in that ballpark, I agree with you 100%

  Yup......that is where he was arrested...not sure where he lived. I was mainly giving Soulja are hard time.

  Probably a relocate from Beaumont........   WE do have thugs........every City has them.......we just have less than most

  Don't we have a thread set up for Freddie Gray?   Gray's past has absolutely nothing to do with his murder or Zimmerman's near miss.....

My son is 13 going on 25.....I had the talk a couple years ago with him after a failed attempt when he was about 9......   It is a tough conversation to have. My parents really didn't have "the talk" with me. I had to figure it out from talking to my friends.  Today, you can youtube just about anything you want to know......back in the day, we had to sneak and find where Dad kept the Playboys.....

Turned himself in?   I guess I will never understand why you would do something THAT crazy and turn yourself in....

That kind of crap should never happen......   If anyone would have been hurt over that (or shot), I think the media should be held responsible.

Kids that do pranks (and that was a pretty good one) are going to have to remember there are cameras now days.......   Back in the day, we didn't have to worry about that......     Disclaimer: I do not condone pranks that destroy property 

Attempted murder?

I agree with bullets but at the same time we cannot give up our freedom of speech.   Stupid or not, they had a right to have the drawing contest.....

  Slow down big guy......the other part was I was not sure if it was truth or rumor......   If you are going to quote me, please quote all of what I say   Carry on:)

  I did read that somewhere......I'm not sure if it was truth or rumor.....

    I believe you are a nurse, correct big girl?   If a patient becomes combative, what do you typically do? Do you put your safety aside and treat the patient? I know that is not how you are trained.   He was not a stranger to the officers. He had been arrested so many times they knew him by first name. (TVC and I used to know a drunk named Woodrow in port Arthur....I picked him up in an ambulance about once a week.) So, it was a common thing for him to act stupid and want to go to the hospital. They did not restrain him because they did not want to get that close to a combative prisoner.   This story is very similar to the Alfred Wright and Ferguson stories. A bunch of made up and false information comes out and people believe it and run with it. I'm not saying anyone is innocent, but we need to wait until all the information comes out before we decide guilt.......

  This is interesting, I didn't know the officer that was charged with the murder was black.     [Hidden Content]

  Yes, it's a fact......I mayor is on video telling everyone.....   They charged one with second degree murder and the rest with lesser charges.........   They will probably never prove it was intentional.....but even so, he could get up to 30 years......

  I have to.....just don't know if that was rumor or has any truth to it. The Mayor did not mention it, so it makes me think that part may not be true......

  So, he should of left the BB gun put away
