That is some sick stuff

I can tell you for a fact in the early 90's in PA one night I responded to two separate shooting and one stabbing, and I don't recall any of them making the news.

That was great and you are correct. I let my son stay out until dark in my subdivision in Lumberton 10-12 years ago.....safe community, hardly locked the door. Today I'm in Port Arthur temporarily for a couple years and I purchased a Bluetooth electronic deadbolt for the backdoor (the one we enter and leave the house mostly) because I wanted to be able to lock remotely incase I forgot.....in Lumberton I didn't feel that way. When you started in the police force and I in EMS, you are absolutely correct about small pockets of crime.....I remember certain areas we waited for you guys before we entered a house. The violent crimes we responded to where generally in the same areas.....but generally PA was a safe town.......Today, where I live is not horrible. I hear that crime typically follows apartments, which is why all the crime is happening around central mall and that area. Is there any truth to that TVC?

I just got lectured by a kid on FB, (has to be under 25), that lives in Tennessee because he does not trust the "white man" because we stole his land and freedom......I mean, dude plays Chess and went to a public school....... Here is the copy/paste..... "Why wouldn't we find it offensive. Our people are nearly Extinct like Dinosaurs cause white Americans from 1670s to 1990s the last school that forced native American kids to abandon their language and accents and cultures to be white. My own family hid away from White people in the woods to be free. I have absolutely no trust in white Americans they have done to much to my people. I can be nice 🙂 to them but I will never fully trust them. We fought just to survive and one DAY WE HAVE OUR LAND AGAIN EVEN IT TAKES A 1,000 YEARS."

IF this is not thrown out,,,,,,,Discovery Discovery Discovery........

Not really, at least not yet..... The question is, when do we stop trying to erase the past or conform to everyone's feelings??

I’m afraid you may be right…..

and honestly, maybe it was my Parents and the way they instilled the "sticks and stones" ideology , but I have not been offended by anything anyone has done, said or dressed.......and I've been down 6th street during Halloween......

Because you agree.....lol

Here is my take.... If PNG was called the Nazi's and had a guy dress up like Hitler for the mascot, people would assume PNG is racist and supports and worships Nazism and Hitler. If PNG was called the Confederate's and had a guy dress up like a confederate solider for the mascot, people would assume PNG is racist and supports Jim Crow laws and stuff..... But if we insert Indians it's racist and disrespectful....... How do you buy that with a straight face? Who in the heck would support or dress up for someone they disrespected? I bet you if I wore a confederate flag t-shirt to a Port Arthur football game, I bet not ONE person would think I was disrespecting the Confederate flag, people or tradition......... So while PNG was always a rival in football, and my High School (TJ) was taken away from me......I have to say PNG has the coolest mascot and fight song I have ever seen....... I believe the motto is "Honor - Tradition - Pride".........How is that disrespectful?

David Chapelle does a skit about the story......it is great....

Actually read what he said…..saying a strategy is smart is not cheering someone on, it’s being honest.

You have inside knowledge or letting your emotions see into the future?

Seems to me PNG just hired Todd to COACH, mentor a team deep in playoff's????

I don't particularly care for the guy, but I see nothing wrong with this. Workplace romances are more than common. Heck, I met my wife at the workplace and married her 20 years later....lol

yup, a bad shot from being murder

He is lucky he missed IMO...... [Hidden Content]

Looks bad, but I doubt illegal

This entire thread is why we can't have nice things..... A 17 year old had the absolute most tragic thing happen to him and it's all on camera, which translates to televisions and cell phones all over the world. Think of the most tragic thing that is happened to you and imagine it filmed and broadcast all over the world.....and your a household name overnight....... Has anyone on this page been chased by a mob, and had to shoot shoot 2 people, and vaporize someone's arm while trying to make sure you didn't die in the process? I find it very, very reasonable he wants everything associated with that night to go away. I've been on these forums many years, and people that say they could kill someone and sleep the next night or it wouldn't bother them....has never killed anyone. I hope I'm ready to shoot if I'm ever put in that situation....but I hope more I'm never put in that situation.....

And they wonder why the police officers might be a little jumpy. There is no way I could of been a cop..... My personal opinion if the media continues to go after police officers, we will have a shortage of them if not all ready......10 years ago I would of been OK with my Son being a cop......now, not so much.....

So it COULD be Obama

I really thought the 2016 elections proved that polls were unreliable. I'm a realist and also a Trump voter......I liked his policies, his mouth, not so much...... However, When a man causes this much turmoil pushing policies that benefited the country, it makes me wonder why even some of his own party were trying to shut him down..... Remember when Tweeting was not "Presidential"? Now every member of Government tweets... Back to the article.....I think he has a very good chance in 2024, especially if Biden keeps this downward spiral of inflation...... and 45/44 percent could play out much different according to the margin of error on this poll. Politico/Morning Consult surveyed 2,005 registered voters between January 22 and January 23. The poll's margin of error is plus or minus 2 percentage points

yea, it’s not bad…… [Hidden Content]

I actually laughed out loud on this one...... Could you imagine the level of debate in that vehicle.....lol
