Re: Presidential ranking

I don’t have a problem with a new boat either. But as I said, a case needs to be made and expectations and accountability for results need to be part of the conversation. When is the last time government shit canned an idea that didn’t work? Once these programs are implemented, they tend to have a ...

Re: Racist/Corrupt/Immoral Police Thread.

It’s the dot on the white sheet of paper. You see the dot but the rest of the sheet goes away and is ignored. Most encounters are peaceful. What we need to be doing is not only working with officers on de-escalation but with the public on how they can better interact. If you teach people to fear la...

Re: GOP House is a "complete failure"

I’m not complaining about Mississippi. I don’t think it’s an”hellhole”. It has its problems. What community doesn’t. But Indont blame those problems on the minority party who hasn’t had much influence in this state. Therein lies the difference. It’s the worst state in the nation on almost every lev...

Re: GOP House is a "complete failure"

And yet you made the conscious deliberate decision to move to a red state. You whine about how things run but you ignored all that and moved here anyway. You didn’t move to a liberal utopia. You moved into a reliably conservative state run by conservatives whom you hate and disrespect. You moved to...

Re: Presidential ranking

I don’t mind investing money for results. Do you? I just don’t care to throw money at a problem with no accountability and no expectation of results. All too often we equate spending money to solving the problem. Often times it’s wasted without a plan. Well then I'm sure that you've invested plenty...

I know. Every case is different. Stats show most police / civilian interactions to be peaceful. Those that involve force are more often justified.

Has there ever been one of these cases where you didn't declare the cops guilty?
Sure.

Wow, if it’s bad, blame the Dems. If Mississippi is a hellhole, DON’T blame the GOP that has ran IT for decades.

California is a victim of its own success. Too many people and real estate is too high to live for those at the bottom.

Who is to say what the Iranians would have done. It easy to make the claim. No way to prove it. I do think this administration and the Obama administration were much more accommodating to the Iranians. I don’t see it as a strategy that has worked. So as always you’re for war first and questions lat...
