@Jolly said in Doesn't Look Good for N. Caroline Gov. Candidate: Guilt by association? After all, they're all Republicans. Guilt by endorsement. Trump endorsed Robinson and still has not retract that endorsement.

@Copper You are such a jerk. Really, you are a jerk. A stupid jerk. Did you not get the memo last spring? Actually, I am a “bitter asshole”. Gawd, you’re a dumb arse.

@Jolly said in Lack of Seamen: But it can be a lonely life at sea. I think this is a problem. Gone for months at a time. Hard to have a "normal" life

@Doctor-Phibes said in She's not even Catholic: I'm a little surprised nobody's pointed out how harmful this smearing of the RC church can be. Is it believable that the Roman Catholic Church would bribe a government official to suppress investigations into sexual abuse scandals involving the Church?

Look at the list of economic powerhouses with their high tariffs! Trump wants to nestle us right in there between Venezuela and Sierra Leone. [image: 1727181058702-img_0302.png]

If you mail your income taxes on April 15 and they're postmarked that day, you've fulfilled you obligation. Late delivery should not be held against the taxpayer, or in this case, the voter.

This has been pretty widely reported. From my hearing, only the first page was released and that was because it was part of the document used to charge the potential assassin. They needed to include that information so that he would have more than just gun charges.

@George-K said in The 15-year old murderer: Should he be locked up forever? I dunno. That is a tough one. I do not believe that 14 year old brains are developed. I am guess that we can all look back when we were 14 and some of our thought processes were so "out there". (I know that nobody seriously thought about murder, but I also think that some 14 year olds have not concept of the consequence of their action.)

@jon-nyc said in Caption Contest: [image: 1727108841318-img_0290.jpeg] Raise your hand if anyone other than me wears a shirt with your own name on it. Oh, if you work at a gas station, you are ineligible.

Without a bucking band, most rodeo bulls aren't any harder to handle than regular stock. OTOH, don't stand in front of a scared bull. Wonder how they got loose?

Pound sand, motherfuckers.

@Axtremus said in The Crime Rate: why is it being brought up now Because I saw it. There have been other reports that crime is "down" only because it's not being reported. This story has some numbers.
