A rose by any other name...I don't give a red rolling rat's ass what they want to call it, in an age where we are falling farther and farther behind other first world nations in educating our children, we do not have the time, money or effort to put into this horseshit and people who wish to teach it, should be taken out behind the schoolboard building and horsewhipped.

@George-K How do you feel about that?

Weird. The cop was lucky the guy had an issue putting the car in park at first. That bought the cop a few seconds. Great reaction speed by the cop. You can tell it took 10-20 seconds for the adrenaline rush to impact his speech, he even said "don't fire!" about 30 seconds later, which made no sense since the guy was on the ground grunting to breathe. Tough to be a police officer these days, I can't imagine the constant stress of a threat being anywhere. Yep. I assume I’m not the only one who watched that video thinking about ways in which the cop could be blamed for unnecessary use of force. Crazy people do crazy things. Do not try rational thought with them, you'll be very disappointed. And hurt. Standard training is that if somebody is coming at you with a lethal weapon - and a hatchet is certainly a lethal weapon, probably better than a knife (takes less skill to kill you) - you negate the threat. That's a fancy term for you shoot the perp, and you continue to shoot until he is no longer a threat to you or anybody else. In this case, the only excessive force would be if he continued to shoot the man after he lay on the ground.

@George-K Ahhh! Thanks George!!

@Mik said in Scammy McScamface: I’ve had good luck on FB marketplace. Have you shipped stuff? How does that work. On eBay it's pretty transparent. I assume the process is pretty much the same - buyer pays, you get funded the cost + shipping and off you go, right? However, calculating shipping costs is up to the seller. I've only done local sales, meeting in a safe spot, etc.

Personal recommendation and review, Jon? How many stars do you give it?

@Jolly Very cool article. I like the interesting stuff you post.

:laughing:

@Jolly said in 10% Chance: @Axtremus said in 10% Chance: @Jolly said in 10% Chance: The voters of Wyoming do not care what you think. Nor do they care about policies. They want only Trump the personality. That's your opinion, of course. Unless you ascribe to the notion the Wyoming election is rigged, you can watch for the vote totals and think anything you wish. Ms. Cheney will still be kicked out of office. Isn't that wonderful? :smiley: I agree. I think she will lose. You say it is wonderful. Why is that? Other than impeachment, what in her votes in Congress where so against the people of Wyoming? Or, is that ONE issue "head and shoulder" above the other 1000's of votes she took? So, it if someone was pro-abortion, anti guns, but dressed in President Trump gear and said the election was stolen and he should never have been impeached, being for that one issue cancels everything else? "Well, our congressman voted to allow the government to implant control chips in our brains, but he stood strongly against the impeachment and wears a MAGA hat, so I guess it is okay!!!" (I know, I know, a bit of a stretch, but it seems that is what the voters of Wyoming are going to say)

@Jolly said in 1:51 Lid: @taiwan_girl said in 1:51 Lid: @Jolly said in 1:51 Lid: Do you really think Biden is a 24/7 president? Do you think that President Trump was? LOL But, to answer your question, probably not. Honestly, very few of the presidents have been. It is such a huge job that you either have to take a step back or you get eaten by the work. The trick is finding the correct balance between the 10000 meter view and the 10 meter view. NOt easy to do, and certainly not a job I would want. Trump was notorious for being up half the night, going to bed in the wee hours of the morning, then being up early to watch the morning news shows and tweeting away. I agree, but I doubt that was on his scheduled 0100 - 0300. Watch Fox News for policy advice and what is important 0300-0330. Sent out Tweets based on previous 2 hours of TV watching etc

@George-K Hmm, looks pretty good to me. LOL. I am not sure I see a problem with your file cabinet

Bahahahahaha

@George-K Shared the Mechanicangelo with hubby. Thank you!
