I am becoming more of the belief that we have a lot of documents considered classified and this will happen a lot more if we actually looked into it.
I saw that, which is what prompted the comment.
Trump deserves to go to Prison for a host of things. But I truly believe that he is the 1 out of 10 that knows what he was doing when it came to stealing these files.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...I can't wait to watch the GOP contort themselves to find a way to turn these Pence/Biden apples into Pence apples and Biden oranges.
Yep.You mean like this?

The Texas senator is cool with classified documents at Mike Pence's house but not so fine with the ones found at Joe Biden's.www.huffpost.com
If somebody of my lowly rank had to access classified information at a meeting not in our own facility that material would be supplied to me when I got to that facility. 
You're fine. I have a buddy who never got into any trouble and he came home with a Claymore!

For someone who hadn't even heard of Santos as late as November, 2022, I really am getting sick of hearing about this piece of $hit. This guy's whole life is a complete fabrication. He is a disgusting freak. He is my most hated politician at the moment right now. There is something about this human excrement that really, really gets under my skin that even Trump doesn't manage to do.
Very creepy. I read one description of the police squad as succumbing to "wolf pack" mentality. Strip away the thin veneer of civility and you see a savage.
You'd see riots by now if the officers where white. The black community does not care about black on black crime.
It points to a serious core problem in police training, screening, etc. Racism is a huge part, but focusing on it grants a pass to a significant problem with how police view themselves and the public overall. "Jackbooted" is an insult that profession has earned in spades. It absolutely disproportionately impacts minorities, but it also impacts everyone else. See, for example, this police assault from my hometown. Of course, I'll also mention that the officer involved had a LOOOOOONNNNGGGG history of problems like this, including instances that seemed to have a racial motivation. Multiple people had tried to get him fired, and the union & union contract allowed the turd to stay on the force. The point being, the police profession does a shit job policing themselves, is poorly trained, and seems to be attracting a personality type that thrives in oppressing others.
I had this exact discussion with my wife this evening.
Memphis did move WAY faster than most other jurisdictions have.
This concept was mentioned by someone on one of the various news broadcasts on this over the weekend and I sincerely wonder.
I hope that is not the case and that they did it because it was the right thing to do.
| Today’s number: $45,933 That is the difference in median household income between the richest North Carolina congressional district (the Wake County 2nd) and the poorest (the northeastern 1st). The Census Bureau has updated its statistics for the districts of the 118th Congress. The interactive database is called “My Congressional District,” What I wanted to see was how our North Carolina districts ranked in median household income. I made a list, from wealthiest to poorest. If you are fuzzy on where the districts are, click on the links. After all the redistricting, I can’t keep them all straight.

That is an interesting comparison and may be instructive of some realties of our national politics and changing demographics and assumptions and etc, etc.
Particularly if they actually are playing politics... lol.
Nikki Haley is going to win a lot of middle of the road Republicans.
I think there's a difference this time: in 2016, everyone expected Trump would implode/self destruct during the primaries, or lose interest and drop out, so that an adult would carry the R banner. Obviously, neither happened (at least during the primaries, "grab them by the pu**y" coming in the run-up to the general) and then it was too late. Like sheep, they all boarded the Trump entourage. This time, they should all see that coming and be duly prepared. Perhaps this time too, the media won't headline every outrageous thing Trump says or does like they did in '16, giving him tons and tons of free air time.
Trump did implode and self destruct during the primaries. I think there were a lot of people who either enjoyed watching the show or wanted to see how much damage could be done. The problem is that he drags the discussion down to his level. In the primaries, candidates who try to stay on the high ground will come off to a decent amount of GOP voters as smug, pretentious, or RINOs. Those who get in the gutter and try to match Trump will lose the respect of those who want a more serious candidate and never gain the respect of those who like Trump. By the time the general election gets around, GOP voters will vote for Trump because he's better than the "commie, elite, abortion loving, unpatriotic" democrat. I think the only way he's not the candidate is if his health fails or the GOP pays him to do something else.
Limit who can have guns and what type of guns.
...sorry to hear that.
I am just thankful that there was no gun and that no one got hurt. But the amount of resources that needed to be dedicated to an event like that was substantial and it took these emergency service staff away from their other duties. And it wasn't just local police. We had police from 3 cities, county sheriff deputies, and state police on scene too.
This is part of why I'm a fan of registration and the carrying of insurance for gun ownership. In my opinion, the owner of the gun should bear financial responsibility for the costs of the emergency callout. Hitting people in the pocketbook where it hurts seems like the only way to engrain at least some level of responsible ownership. I likewise think these threats, even without an actual weapon involved, should result in financial penalties for the cost to respond.
Can you expand on how you think that these elements will protect our kids? For example, the situation today was a social media post that had included photos of weapons. I don't know if the person who made the post even have those or if he got a picture off the internet.
Arresting the idiots doesn't seem enough to deter it from happening again. Maybe having to pay for it will deter someone. I don't know how to makes laws about this, but I say when someone comes up with a stupid idea like hey buddy, want to post a fake threat the buddy gets to slap the crap out of him and tell him it's a stupid idea. Works with everything. You think the earth is flat? Slap! You might still think the earth is flat, but you're not going to say it if someone slaps you everytime.
I'll think about it a bit and get back. Trying to finish up something before the weekend. Let me not be a jerk and start where I should have in the last post.
I think I need to clarify, it was not my son's school, but it was one of the local schools. I am also friends with a lot of the officers who responded and a lot of the teachers, and several parents who send their kids to the school.
