  Thought the same thing, but it claims the cops lied........which leads me to lean the other direction

Who thinks Thomas will find his way to the court house?

His attorney says, "Rivera never resisted once they knocked him to the ground and held him against a wall".   That's like saying I never resisted after they caught me in a foot chase and handcuffed me.....

  She is claiming "not guilty" :o

Under normal circumstances, that is a lot for any one business..... We were promised much more is the reason I am surprised.

  I have not seen as many as I thought I would by this time....   Starting to make me think.....

  He is against legalization and is critical of politicians that are for it. I have no issue with that. I did some very stupid things as a kid, but that does not mean I'm not going to tell my kid not to do them. If you were in High School in the late 70's thru the 80's, it's going to be hard to find someone that has not at least tried a joint......just sayin   I think smart people learn form their mistakes....I would of respected Clinton a lot more if he would have admitted he inhaled.....

  I typically like debating with you because you challenge me.....   Don't ruin that by having grammar wars with folks over content.......   No matter how you worded it, the implication was there.

I was really enjoying filling up my truck for $42.00 :(

We are not going down this road.....   Want to bicker with Nash......PM him

Why don't you post links? As a conservative, I have no big issue with vaccinations....

OK guys,,,,,   Nash and EM......PM each other if you are going to bicker back and forth about who is smarter than the other and who has a better job....   These are the types of post that put this forum under the microscope last year....   Debate the topic or the thread will be locked.   Thanks

I would hope the police would rebel with us and use those tanks agianst the military who has more than just tanks😊

People claim the police do not need tanks, military vehicles or sniper rifles and assualt weapons.  While I don't want to catch my local police using tanks to pull people over for speeding tickets, I really don't have a problem with our police department having military weapons to use in situations that would be benefited by the use of them. I think when you have 500 angry protesters burning down private business and destroying vehicles, the cops may need more than a plexiglass riot sheild and a 6 shot revolver.   Is this just more politics ?   Thoughts??

  I really have no problem with the police having military weapons for special use. I have yet to hear about a rougue cop killing people with a tank......and sniper rifles are fine for hostage situations if they can get a hit.   I think I will start another topic on Police Weapons :D

  I agree.......I can't remember how many times I was caught underage drinking at the beach or at parties and all that happened was we had to pour out our beer in front of them.......the good old days.....lol

  I find it humerous that some on this board automatically associate a thug with a black person.  I can remember my grandmother calling the kids down her street thugs and they were white. I don't play the politics, and I know that is what Biggirl was getting at by asking what a thug looks like.   However, black or white, you are FIRST judged by your appearance.

  I'm working, so not a lot of time to research, but my casual reading about Colorado claims just the opposite. It is being found in schools more now that it has been legalized? It that maybe because Mom and Dad does not hide it anymore and kids can find it?   This is what I can say about my experience with alcohol (remember, I am old enough that at 18 I was legal to drink in LA but had to wait 1 year to be legal in Texas at 19)....from 16 to 18 I never had trouble buying beer, and I look young, at 30 I was still being carded for cigarettes. I could always find it if I wanted it.....same with anything else.....I think legalizing it puts more of it legally in the hands of people that will abuse it or sell it illegally........but, just my opinion....

I'm a conservative and I'm against it, mainly because I'm raising my 14 year old Son and I don't want it easier to get than it already is.   I also look at Colorado and see that the legalization is not trouble free. The money they may save on cops is spent on cops and government trying to regulate it. The states surronding Colorado are busy busting people crossing the stat lines....   I then think of how Texas was before and after the Lottery.....I don't see where the schools or roads are any better after than before. Could it be the government is wasting the profits? Who knows, but it appears it would not benefit me to have it legalized......

  So, the guy is mad because his son fit the description of a suspect??  What did he expect the cop to do, not investigate because he does not want to hurt his feelings?   I really have no patience for race baiters.....

  I think the sprinkle crack on it or something.......   I can't stand McDonalds (to me everything taste the same)......EXCEPT for the McRib

I have never heard of going for a limb to "disable" someone when you are in fear of your life.....it's called deadly force for a reason.....and even if you did hit the leg or arm. It would still be considered deadly force..... Right TVC?

What did he lie about? Those are facts
