  1. Past hour
  2. That’s not an open position.
  3. Individually, none of these charges are a big deal. It seems way worse when it is a list. Four hand guns? In Texas, that would be called a good start. But, it is nice balance so far. Reciprocity rules used to be quite daunting, but have been getting much easier to understand. Vape pen? Oh my, crime of the century. Now, driving under the influence is a problem, but I don't think that was one of the charges. Registration expired, another major crime. When I moved to State College, all I had for almost two years was a worn out paper saying I had a valid SC drives license, which I had lost at some point prior. When I finally went to get a PA drivers license at some rural outpost (early 80's), Officer Friend didn't take kindly to me not having done it earlier. He then gave me my exam orally. He asked me crazy questions off the top of his head like maximum weight for a class C commercial license. I failed and he handed me a book to study for the next attempt. Learned my lesson, but I didn't do any jail time. I hope it turns into a nothing burger.
  4. Penn State?
  5. It is not those three words, it is these two words I disagree with, pork barrel. These are not pork barrel items. These all have national, or international, impact. Their removal fits the reverse defenition. They represent pandering to the base to win votes. This is not about the value of the programs, it is about the marketing value of cancelling them.
  6. Several points of discussion here: 1 - It is still against the law - just like speeding is against the law. 2 - Current documents implies proper documents were in place at one time. So, let's stipulate that lapsed documents is not a crime. However, just like speeding this violation comes with penalties. Additionally, the penalties escalate with the severity of the circumstances. You can lose your privilege to drive and be jailed for speeding so egregiously that you endanger life and limb of others. For legal (at one time) aliens the penalty can range from "fix it in 2 weeks" to deportation with no option to return. 3 - Driving without a license or on a suspended license is a crime. If proper immigration and residence papers were never obtained then we are dealing with criminals, not civil violators. 4 - Another apt analogy to the traffic comparison: Traffic check points for seat belts or DUI. People who are stone cold sober and wearing their seat belts get "swept up". Then they are quickly released when they are not the target of the enforcement action. Source: living in America
  7. Today
  8. I agree they are piddly in terms of deficit reduction. But I also am a subscriber to the broken windows theory of policing. And making your bed every morning. These piddly cuts are the pork barrel budgeting analogy to fixing windows, clearing graffiti, and nipping it in the bud. Small things matter for what they indicate about character, resolve, dependability. Watch those last 3 words trigger some of our brethren! 3 . . . 2. . . . 1 . . .
  9. Any movement on the open HC jobs.
  10. I prefer the VP9 over the 509
  11. Watching the officiating of matches in the earlier rounds of Greco was….interesting. In a lot of matches it seemed that every point led to a conference.
  12. Putting this on the college forum because there are very few posts on the women’s forum, and since HWC wrestlers rarely wrestle internationally (kidding, kinda) it probably didn’t deserve to be on the international board. I had noticed awhile back that a lot of Iowa’s women’s wrestlers when they wrestled in non-college events technically competed under the “Iowa Women’s Wrestling Club,” not HWC. However I believe Kennedy Blades is part of HWC? Is she the only woman on HWC? And If they’re going to have Blades on HWC, why the separation at all? Does this have to do with the Park Merry situation?

  13. just in a case a situation requiring the *** checks notes *** arises. evil doers with their own *** checks notes *** are everywhere.
  14. "Goofball" - although accurate, is one. Sooo that's one. Been using the nickname "JimmySpanks" for quite a while. It fits the little turd jerker. Name-calling and nicknames aren't the same thing at all. If you were particularly smart, you'd realize the difference between the two.
  15. Nope. Not true. (see Trip's post above) But 100% of the current President has committed a long list of crimes, including at least a couple dozen felonies. (See link in earlier post.) I agree we should fight crime. It's time to 8647. Let's impeach this lying fat old orange mush brain and put the country back on track.
  16. I don't think Trump can avoid lying or blaming everyone else for things. Literally everything is somehow somebody else's fault.
  17. Being present in the US without current documents is not a criminal offense. It's a civil violation, like a speeding ticket. Source: Working in an immigration law firm for a decade.
  18. I just hope the FN was the 509 Tactical with the threaded barrel.
  19. Trump essentially stole the CWC trophy, and pocketed a winner's medal. Neither of which he earned, and only has because he took them and refused to return them.
  20. Both are political theatre arguments.
  21. One? Okay . Get your warm fuzzies. More shifting. We’ve went from FIFA to Obama And….what am I saving??
  22. Went back and saw some of Taz's matches. He does sometimes muscle-athleticism his way to some scores, but there is artistry to his game. Impressed that Baranowski wrestled him that tough. Never managed to score, but you could tell that he's still a high level grappler and a formidable human. Poland might not even have a 1,000 active wrestlers across all age groups. For them to produce a 97 kg wrestler like that and have a couple of other quality guys is commendable in an age of America, Dagestan and the likes.
  23. You’re going to find a story where 1 random American was deported. Obama did it on accident too. So save it
  24. Always looking to shift. That has zero to do with the number of people being swept up who are not illegal. But hey, you do you, whatever you can to give you your warm fuzzies!! You’re approaching Jimmy levels of adorable with having to quote the same post multiple times…
  25. Wait….what??? Your writing skills are catching up to your comprehension skills.
  26. FIFA is a top 5 most corrupt organization on earth. You can save your moral indignation
